Beautiful Summer Morning Inspirational Quote of the Day October 31
© Anna Telnova – Fotolia.com
What fearful shapes and shadows beset his path, amidst the dim and ghastly glare of a snowy night! With what wistful look did he eye every trembling ray of light streaming across the waste fields from some distant window! How often was he appalled by some shrub covered with snow, which, like a sheeted specter, beset his very path! How often did he shrink with curdling awe at the sound of his own steps on the frosty crust beneath his feet; and dread to look over his shoulder, lest he should behold some uncouth being tramping close behind him! and how often was he thrown into complete dismay by some rushing blast, howling among the trees, in the idea that it was the Galloping Hessian on one of his nightly scouring!

Today is for Fun and Fear (delicious tickling fright). My biggest fear this creepy night is that I will have Halloween Candy left over !
Just have fun today!
