Stan's car crashed into a parking spot at a store. Him, Bella, Soos, and the twins climbed out of the car.

"Here we are, the Summerween Superstore!" Stan announced.

"Wait, Summer-what?" Dipper asked.

"Summerween!" Stan repeated, pulling out a June calendar with several marked dates. There was a cake each on the 11th and 15th, a piece of candy on the 22ed (today), and a ring on the 28th, "The people of this town love Halloween so much, they celebrate it twice a year."

"And today is it!" Bella grinned.

"Do you always carry that calendar in your pocket?" Dipper asked Stan. He paused.

"...Yes," Stan answered.

"Summerween?" Mabel questioned, "Something about this feels unnatural."

"There's free candy!" Soos smiled. The twins glanced at each other before cheering and running into the store. Bella, Stan, and Soos laughed before following them.

"TO THE COSTUME AISLE!" Dipper and Mabel cheered. Dipper was pushing Mabel around in a wheelbarrow. Stan and Bella looked around an aisle of scary Summerween decorations. Stan picked up a barrel of fake blood and laughed.

"When the children come to my door tonight, they're gonna run away screaming from Stan Pines, Master of Fright!" He smirked. He turned to face a baby, "Boo."

The baby started crying loudly and Stan laughed. Bella shook her head and watched as Dipper and Mabel knocked over a pile of jack o' melons while Soos pressed a bunch of decorative talking skulls.

"Uh oh, I think this one's leaking!" Stan announced, looking at the fake blood dripping from the barrel.

"Have the police come and eject the Pines family from the store," The employee said into a walkie talkie.

"NOT TODAY!" Stan shouted. He threw down a smoke bomb, causing the employee to yell out in pain. The Pines family and Soos ran out of the store with some Summerween stuff.

"You paid for this stuff, right?" Bella asked.

"Of course!" Stan lied. The five of them piled into the car. Stan backed up into an inflatable decoration, which deflated, and drove off, "Let's move!"

It was just after dark. Soos and the twins were chatting in the living room while Stan and Bella got ready for the trick-or-treaters.

"I miss being able to go trick-or-treating," Bella said, tugging at the sleeves on her costume, "It's a lot of fun."

"Yeah, but trick-or-treating is for little kids," Stan scoffed, "Scaring kids- now that's for any age."

"I went trick-or-treating till I was sixteen," Bella chuckled, "It was way better than just going to the store and buying candy."

"At least you're able to pick out the good candy," Stan said, "And not get the bad candy." The doorbell rang out, "Trick-or-treaters! Quick! Give' em that terrible candy!"

Bella laughed and rolled her eyes.

About an hour later, everyone was in their costumes. Mabel was dressed as jelly, Stan and Bella were vampires, and Mabel's friends Candy and Grenda were a piece of candy and a witch.

"Grunkle Stan, Graunty Bella, these are my best friends, Candy and Grenda," Mabel introduced.

"I am so sweet I could eat myself," Candy grinned. Bella giggled.
