Gather around the campfire adults and children alike and let us prepare for Halloween, the one holiday the Celts, the people of Scotland and Ireland gave the world.
People changed the name from Samhain to Halloween and Turnips with candles to using Pumpkins but still some elements remain, as some people believe that strange spirits and creatures are particularly active and present on the 31st of October.
So!
Any plans? Perhaps parties? Trick or Treating? Scary movies and sleepovers?
Or perhaps you have some scary stories or other interesting things to share. 
–Creepy pasta! Post more if you have them!—
The Portraits:
[i]There was a hunter in the woods, who, after a long day hunting, was in the middle of an immense forest. It was getting dark, and having lost his bearings, he decided to head in one direction until he was clear of the increasingly oppressive foliage. After what seemed like hours, he came across a cabin in a small clearing. Realizing how dark it had grown, he decided to see if he could stay there for the night. He approached, and found the door ajar. Nobody was inside. The hunter flopped down on the single bed, deciding to explain himself to the owner in the morning.
As he looked around the inside of the cabin, he was surprised to see the walls adorned by several portraits, all painted in incredible detail. Without exception, they appeared to be staring down at him, their features twisted into looks of hatred and malice. Staring back, he grew increasingly uncomfortable. Making a concerted effort to ignore the many hateful faces, he turned to face the wall, and exhausted, he fell into a restless sleep.
The next morning, the hunter awoke — he turned, blinking in unexpected sunlight. Looking up, he discovered that the cabin had no portraits, only windows.[/i]
