THE LIVINGS HAD SPENT SOMETIME FIXING UP A OLD GAZEBO. Jay had used finished adding the lights as Sam and the ghosts watched.

"Okay. Plug her in." Jay told his wife, Sam plugging in the lights. The lights turned on being not very impressive in the daytime.

"Oh, yay!" The ghosts all cheered at the lights.

"Your old gazebo's looking pretty good, huh, Hetty?" Sam asked. She was happy due to their reaction.

"Indeed! Now, get some swans in the lake,
and a couple of giraffes at a dinner party...
It'll be the Gilded Age all over again." Hetty responded, pointing over a the lake and field areas.

"They love it, Jay." Sam said to her husband, him currently unaware of the ghosts feelings.

"Woo-hoo! Two days of sanding, three coats of paint, but the smiles you claim to see on your invisible friends' faces make it all worthwhile." He replied, his words dripping sarcasm.

"Hey, should we hang some Halloween decorations on it? Oh, my God, wait. Halloween? Ghosts! This is your holiday.
You guys must love Halloween." Sam began to question as Jay quickly agreed with her.

"Who's gonna tell her?" Pete asked as most of the others grumbled.

"We hate Halloween." Alberta cleared up for the living.

"Well I like it, I'm the only one though." Thea added having a smile on her face a first, before frowning at the others reactions to her words.

"What'd they say?" Jay questioned his wife, still excited about halloween.

"They don't like it, Well accept Thea." Sam replied, upset and confused about most of the ghosts hatred for halloween.

"Okay, that feels off brand." Jay told them.

"All Hallows Eve mocks us and belittles our very existence." Isaac explained harshly to the living.

"People putting sheets over their heads and pretending to be "ghosts"? I mean, what is that? Plus, we can't do any of the fun stuff that Livings do. We can't dress up in costumes, we can't eat candy..." Pete followed up as Sam started to understand their reasoning.

"Can't hook up with a sexy nurse. Or a sexy kitten. Or sexy Bobby Boucher from Waterboy. I didn't think it was possible, either, but this chick pulled it off." Trevor continued adding in his personal experiences.

"The decorations are cool, however I haven't seen some in quite some time. I do also miss my annual masquerade ball, that I held every halloween." Thea tried to state her view point, however coming to terms that maybe she didn't like halloween. The look of shock on her face, at her own words showing it.

"Also, I died on Halloween. At a party at the mansion in 1995. This is a costume. I'm actually an accountant and my name is Mike." Sass began to tell Sam. A clear lie to the others.
