“You know that empty store on main street, by the deli?” I nodded, though she hadn’t answered my question at all. The store had been empty for years – I don’t think there had been anything in there but dust since before I was born. “Well, I was walking past a couple days ago, and I saw that there were blinds up in the window. I thought that was kinda odd, so I went a little closer, and there on the door, there was a little, handmade sign saying ‘Halloween Costumes On Sale!’”
“And you went in?” I raised an eyebrow; Nancy, bless her heart, didn’t always think to look before she leaped, but even she should have been wise enough not to wander into what sounded very much like some creepy trap.
