The Pumpkin Gree

youmagine

Here is my Halloween effort. I'm not very good at making pumpkin pie, but I can make pumpkin monsters. I've even made up a silly story to go along with it: "A Pumpkin Glee is a small mischievous sprite known to visit the human world at Halloween. Aware that they very much resemble decorations so favored at that time of year, a Pumpkin Glee will happily make its temporary home in a well-tended garden, unnoticed amongst the seasonal paraphernalia. Unfortunately, any Trick or Treaters who visit a home with a resident Pumpkin Glee will quickly find the joke is on them, as these creatures have a great appetite for all sweet things and very little conscience about how they obtain them. Children who complain that their treats have been stolen by a small growling pumpkin will be labelled by their parents as untruthful and greedy. The Pumpkin Glee finds this very funny indeed. Of course, should a child "accidentally" drop some candy nearby; the Pumpkin Glee will let them pass. They may be little monsters but they do like intelligent children."
