Halloween's just around the corner.

I'm really excited about it!

Halloween is for children, isn't it?

I think that trick-or-treating is boring.

I'm bored with trick-or-treating, too.

So, this year I'm going to a costume party with Patty.

I'm going to dress up as a bat,

and Patty's going to be a cat.

What a way to celebrate Halloween!

Right!

But... at the party, there'll be a time for telling ghost stories.

I think I'll run away and hide.

Are you telling me you're scared of ghost stories?

Yes... I'm scared of ghosts and ghost stories.

I'm surprised to hear that, Amy.

Everyone knows that you aren't afraid of anything.

Besides, ghosts aren't real.

You shouldn't be worried.

I guess you're right,

but I still can't help it.

By the way, would you like to come with us?

No, thanks!

I'm not interested in Halloween parties;

they aren't my cup of tea.
