The day after the fateful night was nothing short of horrendous. After her roommate Cass dragged her back inside, she passed out until mid-afternoon. She couldn't remember much from the previous night's events except the glinting eyes of Harrison, and her mysterious Uber Driver. Her insides congealed in embarrassment nearly every time she thought back to how she probably ruined his car. She vowed it would be the last time she was caught party-rocking on a Sunday. She strove to keep herself out of trouble for the next few days. Halloween was fast approaching and she planned to spend the night curled up on the couch with a movie and to ignore her assignments for the week.

That plan lasted for all of five minutes.

She found herself staring at a text from Becca as she sat in her last class of the day. It was Halloween officially, and the roommate group chat was alight with potential antics. The girl had set her boundaries, but like a red flag to everyone's high school best friend, they were ignored.

The plan was simple. Becca had proposed a night drive to a nearby National Park, all to revel in the macabre energy of the night in the company of the trees. It sounded uneventful enough to the girl, so she relented. However, as the dollar store bag of candles was pressed into her hands, she began to have her doubts.

"What the hell is this supposed to be?" She scrunched her nose and turned to glare at Becca in the back seat.

"You're the candlekeeper for the night," Becca said nonchalantly, rummaging in her bag.

"Yeah I can see that, but why?" The girl raised an eyebrow.

Becca smirked, "We are going to practice witchcraft. Obviously."

"It's hardly witchcraft, we're summoning a demon." Cass chimed in, smacking Becca's arm.

Becca gave her a pointed look, "Bitch, I read The Crucible in high school English, that sounds like witchcraft to me."

Jen shook her head from behind the driver's seat, "Calm down kids, or I'll turn this car around."

The girl grumbled, slouching in her seat, "This shit sounds contrived. This is a basic horror movie mistake."

The trees rolled by the window in swaths of darkness. They were miles away from town and isolated enough from society that Michael Myers himself would likely appear. It was all in the spirit of Halloween, of course, although the girl would rather be getting high on the couch watching fractal videos.

The car rolled to a stop in the dirt parking lot of a hiking trail. The forest loomed before them and the girl groaned as she realized she was not only being tricked into witchcraft, but also that she would have to exercise for it.

"Dude this sucks, I don't want to go hiking at night. We are Skinwalker food right now." The girl complained, swinging the bag of candles to smack Becca in the ass.

Becca whipped around, her face contorting in mock anger, "You better pipe down back there before I show this forest a real incident."

The girl rolled her eyes, earning a giggle from Jen.

"Sorry to interrupt your lover's quarrel, but how exactly did you figure out how to summon a demon?" Jen asked, falling into place next to the girl.

Becca snatched her backpack from Cass. She rummaged around for a moment before making a small "ah-hah!" noise and pulling out a decrepit book.
