Halloween Story Starters

I found great story starters for Halloween and thought I'd share a few. I did not do any with my oldest as he is deer hunting with Grandpa but I did with my neice who spent the last few nights here and my oldest daughter. They seemed to have fun and I would ask a question to get them thinking about their next sentence. I don't have them ready to share but here are some of the story starters....
*It was a dark and stormy night when...
*My friends and I were trick-or-treating and knocked on the door...
*Meow! The black cat was scared...
*The silliest Halloween ever started when...
*A yellow glow was coming from the jack-o-lantern, only...
*I was counting all my candy when all of a sudden...
*You won't believe this story, but it is true...
*The whirling winds of that October evening sent chills down my spine...

a bit of the mind of a four year old

Mom: "Gee Boo, you look all dressed and ready to go for the day!"


Boo: "Yea, I guess that is why I turned four."
