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.

are you afraid of the dark? by James_BuchananBarnes

The only thing faster than the light is the darkness ☆ October isn't notorious for its ability, as a month, to romance that special someone. But, for Bucky Barnes, a 17-year-old from Brooklyn, New York, it's the best chance he's got to show his best friend, Steve Rogers, his true feelings. Scary stories, Halloween candy, and supposed ghost noises might not seem like the prime environment for falling in love - for Steve of all people - but, seeing as this is the only opportunity of which Bucky could think to take advantage... it couldn't possibly go that bad, right? •Completed• WARNING: mature content Please don't steal my book, I worked very hard on it!

The Angel Of Hell by StormySkyDiver

Hell was the worst place to be after death. The torture is inevitable and the conditions are miserable. There is no remorse for those who have committed a crime and they got everything they deserved: Eternal Punishment. And who better to lead the torture party than the son of the Devil himself? However, Lucifer is not who everyone thinks he is. And when friendly little Sally gets sent to Hell she is furious. Sally refuses to sit back and take some unjust punishment; and when the Angels of Heaven ignore her pleas for help, she takes matters into her own hands. But something sinister is brewing between the forces of Heaven and Hell... And this something might just lead to the destruction of all humanity... unless it can be stopped...
