The Candleman

Grandpa was only alive when I was a baby and I never knew him, but I learnt when I was older how much he had meant to Grandma. Without him she had been broken. In the dream I was in my bedroom, comfy under the covers, when I heard a tune being played on the piano downstairs.

Goosebumps ran up my arms and neck, and ice filled my stomach. I sprinted down the narrow staircase into the living room, were I saw a tall, pale figure in a robe holding a candle, leaving through the open door.

The Candle Man

He was a bout six foot four or five, with dead looking beady eyes and a wide, evil grin. I woke up suddenly in a cold sweat, turned on the light, and read until I was ready to sleep again. I put the dream down to too many drinks and the coming of Halloween, but it freaked me out anyway. And that takes me up to yesterday, Halloween night.

My hands thrust into my pockets for warmth. Whilst I was walking back through the crisp orange leaves, the poem of the candle man popped into my head. My heart began to thud as I walked down a poorly lit street, leaves crunching underfoot, the pale moon casting long shadows on the earth.
