Okay time for my favorite childhood Halloween story. When I was in 5th grade one of my classmates Janie had her birthday near Halloween, and invited us all to her house for a slumber party. Part of the fun of the evening included a hayride down an old country road while telling ghost stories
It is really dark and we are all scaring each other silly with tales like Bloody Mary, and Hook Man, etc. all while driving about 5 miles an hour down an old dirt road. All of a sudden we hear in the distance screams heading for us from up ahead. In the headlights we see Janie's Older brother and a few cousins running like crazy for the truck absolutely scared out of their minds. About a hundred yards ahead was an old cemetery where they were lying in wait for us to scare us as we drove by, but instead they had heard all kinds of noises like something walking around right by them.
As we pulled up to the cemetery to investigate we shone our flashlights all around to the cemetery and the pastures surrounding it. Then all of a sudden we hear it....
Coming low through the grasses.....a sound that would haunt me forever.....
wait for it.....
Moooooooooo (yup it was the cows that they heard...stupid cousins)
