Montgomery Monster Montgomery’s stinky monster feet skit-skeetered down the darkened street. He knocked and shouted, “Trick or Treat!” One thing would make his night complete… Was it fresh meat or maybe bones? The crust of cemetery stones? Montgomery’s ghoulish drool drip-dropped. That thing was here! His heart flip-flopped. Clair opened up the door and froze; a monster stench of toes arose! She shook as shadowed claws stretched out with nails that smelled of sauerkraut. But monster reached inside the dish that overflowed with his one wish. He’s had a taste since he was born For sweet and chewy candy corn!
