Tricky Treats collects three previously published Halloween stories by Mark Leslie that feature unworldly visitors who show up on All Hallow's Eve to unleash the strange and eerie onto our world.
BUT ONCE A YEAR
On Halloween, the dead are allowed to leave their graves and roam around. But one recently departed man yearns to visit his best friend and share a little bit about what he has learned about the afterlife.
TREATS
Poor Percy made a promise to his dying wife that he wouldn't bury her after she died, but instead keep her body in the bedroom upstairs. This makes him the creepy old guy down the street that neighborhood kids love to play pranks on. At least, that's who Percy thinks is stalking around outside his house on Halloween.
TRICKY TREATER
Danny Kleinner, a lonely twenty-something, has a run-in with Satan at a modern day crossroads (a city convenience store) one fateful evening on the last day of October.

The Kiss Of Death
Frank and Emma Taylor have been on the run for eight years. After the death of their mother, the siblings took off rather than living in a children's home. They hide the secret of their mother's death, the deal that Frank made with an evil woman. At eighteen, Frank has had enough. He wants to settle down and not run from the past, to be free of the menace that haunts him every Halloween. With the night drawing closer, Frank and Emma know that they'll be committing another dark deed and with that, they will leave another town behind. The problem is that in this town, Frank's found a woman that he likes. He looks at Lola and sees a future that he cannot have. When Lola realises that Frank and Emma have skipped town, she begins to look for them, unaware that it is the beginning of the end. The search for an answer to Frank's problems will lead them to the only person that can help them. He will give them everything that they need to be free of the past that is hunting them down. All Lola has to do is agree to his terms. Lola will learn that every deal has a price but the sacrifice that she makes will be worth it. © This story is copyrighted.

The Things You Will Never Know
If you go down to the woods today... Well, in this town, you probably won't come back. Unexplained deaths and disappearances are normal around here. In Haltonshaw Grove, we tell these real life horror stories to our kids like bedtime tales. They help us learn from a young age to stay out of the forest after dark. But one halloween, we didn't listen- Me and four boys. We broke the rules and we paid the price. We barely made it out alive and now we live with the trauma, the nightmares, the memories. Seven years later, the events of that night, like most things tend to do around here, have come back to haunt us. We never talked about the night we ran in the forest, never spoke afterwards at all really, but now we're going to need each other if we're going to survive what's coming. Me and those boys I've loved all along. - - ‐ - - - - - - - - - - - - - Our town is haunted. The five of us are cursed. And Halloween is just around the corner... Let's see who makes it to November 1st.

Not an introduction to Death himself and the invitation to something sweeter. Kill or be killed, he couldn't care less. But win... Win and be free to return to life as she knew it. | Featured Story - Editors Pick | | SHORTLISTED FOR THE Open Novella Contest 2019 | | Winner of Wattpad's Psychological Novel Contest 2020 | | Highest Rank: #20 in Fantasy |Compleet
