First off, I was going to make a joke about Howl-O-Ween, but if you’ve read a lot about dogs, which you probably have if you’re here, then you’ve heard that already. Anyway, on October 31st, I could tell the humans were waiting for something. Sure enough, Nana and Papa came over, they talked and played games, et cetera. Then, suddenly I heard sirens. Being a dog, I howled at them. Everyone got dressed in fancy outfits, which Smoky said were based on a ride called The Haunted Mansion, then covered said outfits with winter coats. Why don’t humans just grow fur? Mom, Dad, and Isabella put me in my crate and went walking. Nana and Papa answered the door whenever it rang, which seemed to be happening a lot that night. The people would show up, Nana and Papa would give them candy, and they’d leave. Then my humans came back with candy of their own. This went on for a while, then the people stopped coming, Nana and Papa left, and it returned to normal. But I still wonder what that was about!
