Kari Bell sifted through the scattered sweets, a strange calm on her face despite the skeletal figures surrounding her. Each piece felt…wrong. Too vibrant, too perfect. She picked up a chocolate bar, its wrapper shimmering unnaturally under the crimson moonlight. It wasn't the candy she sought, but what it concealed. A faint pulse emanated from beneath the pile, growing stronger with every passing moment. The skeletons shifted, their empty sockets seeming to fixate on her actions. Kari knew this was no ordinary Halloween offering; something else was being delivered, and she was meant to receive it. She reached deeper into the sugary mound, a grim determination hardening her gaze.
