About 8:00 last night our doorbell rang. When Maddy and I answered it the was no one there, but sitting on our doorstep was a little black bucket of Halloween candy and other goodies!!! Inside was a cute note and a picture of a ghost (phantom)on a piece of paper. The note said:
The phantom ghost has come to town
The phantom ghost has come to town
To leave some goodies....I see you've found
If you wish to make this a happier fall...
Continue this greeting, this phantom call.
First, post this phantom where it can be seen
And leave it there until Halloween.
This will scare other phantoms who may visit--
Be sure to participate, you won't want to miss it.
Second, make two treats, two phantoms, two notes like this,
Deliver them to two neighbors who may have been missed.
Don't let them see you, be sneaky, no doubt,
And make sure they put their phantom ghost out.
Next, you have only one day to act, so be quick!
Leave it at doors where the phantom hasn't hit.
Deliver at dark when there is no light...
Ring the door bell and run--and stay out of sight!
And last, but not least, come join in season.
Don't worry, be happy...you need no good reason.
Be cool, have fun, and remember-- don't be seen!
By the way, here's wishing you a Happy Halloween!!!
So Madison was super excited about our visitor and kept saying "this is very mysterious." She was dying to know who rang our bell and left us the treat. We actually left the house for school early this morning so we could drive through the neighborhood to see what houses had their phantoms taped on the door. Anyway, about 8:00 tonight we all hopped in the car and took our goodies over to some neighbors. Maddy "rang and ran". (rang the doorbell, ran to the car and we took off) These people who come up with these things are insanely creative!!! Heather M. is this kind of what your neighborhood does?
This is what was outside on our doorstep: I really have no idea what Maddy was doing in this picture!!!!
