THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS

THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS

Once upon a time a tall and thin skeleton known as Jack Skellington, was tired and bored in Halloween land, he needed something different of just yelling, ‘Boo’ one night, Jack came upon an amazing sight, where he was transfixed by one special door. Jack didn’t know it, but he fallen down In the middle of a place called Christmas Town. There, he took candies and toys and a picture of Santa with all of his elves. He picked up everything that produced small flashes of light and took it all back to Halloween where a group of Jack’s peers stared in amazement at his Christmas souvenirs. He decided to be Santa that year, he liked to say; “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!” He visited some children’s houses and gave them terrible toys, everybody there were screamed of terror, but Jack didn’t notice it because he was much too involved with his own Christmas spirit! Suddenly Jack fell on the cemetery where he was confused and filled with great grief. He heard Santa to say “My dear Jack, I applaud your intent but taking over Christmas was not a good idea”. Also Santa said Jack; “I hope you realize Halloween is the right place for you”. After that, Santa left Jack at the cemetery by saying him “Merry Christmas,” and goodbye. Jack was sad, but then, like a dream, Santa brought Christmas to the land of Halloween.
