Once upon a time, in a small town called Sleepy Hollow, there lived a grumpy old man named Mr. Scrooge. He hated Halloween and all the festivities that came with it. Every year, he would lock himself in his house and refuse to give out candy to the trick-or-treaters.
One Halloween night, as Mr. Scrooge was getting ready to go to bed, he heard a loud knock on his door. When he opened it, he was greeted by three ghosts - the Ghost of Halloween Past, the Ghost of Halloween Present, and the Ghost of Halloween Future.
The ghosts took Mr. Scrooge on a journey through time, showing him how his actions had affected the people around him. They showed him the joy and happiness that Halloween brought to the town, and how his selfishness was ruining the holiday for everyone.
After seeing the error of his ways, Mr. Scrooge vowed to change his ways and embrace the spirit of Halloween. He opened his doors to the trick-or-treaters and gave out candy to all the children in town. From that day on, he became known as the friendliest man in Sleepy Hollow, spreading joy and happiness wherever he went.
