Making sure I would not be seen or heard, I quietly crept out the back door and being certain that Igor was not around, I crept pass the grove and onto the street. After the unbelievable monster convention I had witnesses, it was frightening to be out so late and in the dark, so I had practically ran home and locked the door behind me. It was only when I was ready to go to sleep that night did I realize how tired I was. Amazingly I fell asleep quickly that night (with the lights on of course, there was no guarantee that a monster wasn’t lurking in the shadows).
The years following, I avoided the home, especially on Halloween, regardless of if there were any monsters or not. I wasn’t sure if the monsters I observed at their convention that night would ever go there again or if they needed to protect their anonymity and I wasn’t willing to risk getting caught. It was pure chance that it didn’t happen that fateful Halloween night and it was luck that I was able to observe the unbelievable event without incident. Even though that chilly October day was a unique experience and an amazing event, my common sense returned to me after walking away and I worked hard not to have a reoccurring happening. But from that night on, I was a wary believer.
