The Patriotic Maniac
"You may want to take extreme caution when trick or treating on Halloween tomorrow." Began the News Reporter. "A patient has escaped from The Fieldview Mental Hospital tomorrow. His name is Ben Richards. This is what he looks like." A mugshot of an extremely disturbed-looking man fades onto the screen. "He is dangerous, and he is armed with a knife. However, he should be easy to spot since he was last reported stealing an Uncle Sam costume from a store. If you see a man dressed as Uncle Sam with a knife, avoid him and call the police. We highly suggest not dressing as Uncle Sam tomorrow."
Ashley shut her TV off. She didn't want to hear anymore of that. Halloween was her favorite holiday. She decorated her house nicely and bought tons of candy for trick-or-treaters. It would be horrible if her favorite holiday was ruined due to one mental person.
However, when the day of Halloween finally came, people were actually out trick or treating! Ashley was very happy, even though she wanted everyone to be safe. She dressed in her "sexy witch" and handed out candy. That night, her boyfriend, Drake came over. They binge watched horror movies together until they fell asleep. When Ashley was with Drake, all was right with the world.
At 11:30, she woke up, slightly hungry. She quickly noticed that Drake was nowhere to be found. The end credits of Jason X was rolling by on the tv.
Ashley walked into the kitchen. Hopefully there was still some Pigs in a Blanket left from earlier. In the darkness, she could see Drake standing on the kitchen table. She giggled and flicked the light switch on, revealing a horrifying sight.
Drake wasn't standing, he was hanging! His body was covered in deep scars as blood leaked from his eyes and mouth. He was dead.
Ashley let out a shriek and collapsed to the floor. She could never find anyone like Drake again! He was the one!
Then, the killer walked into the light. It was the man on the news! The escaped mental patient! Uncle Sam! He was holding a firework. He aimed it directly at Ashley as he lit the fuse!
She ran as fast as she could as the man perused her. Then, she heard the whistle of the firework from behind her! She ducked, just missing it! It exploded on the wall, creating a blinding explosion of red, white and blue.
Once her eyes adjusted, she saw the killer approach her with a knife! Enraged, she took the knife from him and stabbed him repeatedly! She didn't stop until she was sure he was dead.
She called the police, explaining the whole thing to them. Ashley was completely traumatized by the whole ordeal. She saw her boyfriend's mutilated body. She killed someone! When the police finally arrived, she showed them where the body was, only to see that there was nothing there.
