Book excerpt: We've all been to Haunted House Attractions on Halloween that have people made up to be scary-looking to scare us even though it is all fake, and we know it, but we don't care we just want to be scared. Meet Henry Adams he loves going to haunted attractions but was getting bored and not scared anymore, so he decided he was going to make his Haunted attraction which would be to die for literally. Henry wants to be the envy of all Halloween attractions and he is going to do it in a deadly way. Henry knew if he was going to pull this off it had to be done in a big way. Halloween was just a couple of months away, and he had to think of something special to do that would alleviate his loneliness in the dilapidated Mansion out in the country where he was living all alone. Then out of the blue, he said, "I know just the perfect thing to do this Halloween, and that would be to turn my mansion into a real-life Haunted Mansion, but this has to be the real thing not just a bunch of props. That night as Henry was daydreaming about what to do on his couch he wasn't about to doze off because if he did he probably would forget. Henry immediately got off the couch turned on the light, and got a piece of paper to write down his thoughts and act on them in the morning. After about an hour, and nonstop writing Henry finally passed out on the couch with a beer in one hand, and the paper he was writing down his thoughts on was lying on his chest. The beer Henry had in his hand dropped to the floor spilling everywhere, but Henry was fast asleep and didn't hear a thing. Morning finally arrived and Henry awoke to the sunlight beaming through the living room window. Henry wiped his eyes and grabbed his paper full of ideas then stepped down off the couch into a pool of beer getting his socks soaking wet. Henry said, "I must have been out of it last night." Then he went over to the kitchen to get a towel and clean up the spilled beer. He made himself some breakfast and sat at the kitchen table going over his ideas. When he was through eating his breakfast he got on his clothes and took his to-do list with him then got in his car eager to get the things he needed to turn his Mansion into a real-life Haunted Mansion. Henry went into town to the Halloween store for a fog machine to give his yard the kind of look that you would see in scary movies. He also got things from the Halloween store such as spooky music, strobe lights, black lights, and cobwebs. Henry was excited to see his fantasy unfolding right in front of him.
