Trick or Treat

On the night of Halloween in 1973 a child's fantasy intersects reality as two brothers make the mistake of looking for a treat at a dark house where a lone jack-o-lantern stands watch on the porch and aliens have come to visit.  Reminiscent of an episode from Rod Serling's "The Twilight Zone," Trick or Treat shows the power a wish can have in the powerless world of one little boy.Trick or Treat is a short story of approximately 2000 words.
