[Third place winner of the 'October-Halloween short story contest 2017' hosted by the Mystery and Thriller profile.] Minnesota. Corn country. Tomos Rees inherited the farmlands from his Welsh parents. He lived alone, far away from everyone and everything; his cornfield was the wall of his own world. No one would ever come to his door for a treat, Halloween or Samhain. But he couldn't have known his door would be knocked thrice on the same night. The night of the Halloween, of the year of our Lord, twenty-seventeen. Tomos didn't know he would never be alone anymore... ever... and he had nowhere to run.
