 ​                           Erwin Ghost’s Halloween
 
       Erwin Ghost was tired of Halloween house haunting.  He wanted to dress up and have fun like everyone else. So he thought and thought and decided to be a potato for Halloween.  
       When it was dark, he joined the other trick or treaters.
       “A ghost!” said an Evil Queen.
       “I’m not a ghost, I’m a potato!” said Erwin. 
       “But you’re white, round and have eyes like a ghost.  Here, look in my mirror.”
       Erwin looked.  She was right.  So he took his costume off.
       “Aaaah you’re a ghost!”  The Evil Queen fainted.
       “But I didn’t even say BOO!” said Erwin. 
        
                                       The End

So cute. If I were a ghost, I'd totally dress up as a potato.

What fun, Kimberly! I hope Erwin tries again at the next house...and this time, pretends he is pretending to be a ghost. ;)

Ha ha. This is so funny. I love the surprise of removing the costume and the "but I didn't even say boo!" Love it. Happy Halloween.

I can just picture a ghost dressing up as a potato. And how funny when he takes off his costume. Great story!
