All three of them were wearing a hockey mask, dressed in a black robe and holding a long hockey stick. When I opened the door, I thought they were killers that were going to attack me. (I watched too many horror films so I get scared easily) But before I yelled (because I wanted to warn my brother to stay away if they attacked), I heard a young voice asking "trick or treat?" Then I said "Oh." I we
