Offering to Lost Souls by the Lake

You are so full of shit.

Really? Well, then I guess you won't mind being first.

First what?

Eight victims, eight jack-o'-lanterns, each one representing a lost soul. So we're going to leave them by the side of the lake as an offering to those who died.

Shut up, Sara.

The Halloween School Bus Massacre.

Just don't call it that.

What's she talking about?
Sara:
It's this awesome town legend. There's this bus full of...
Macy:
Jesus, will you shut up and let me tell the damn story?
Rhonda:
You said a bad word.
Macy: [begins narrating the flashback]
It happened 30 years ago on a late Halloween afternoon. A school bus was on its usual route. But this wasn't your typical school bus and they weren't your typical kids. There were eight of them and they were different. Troubled. Disturbed. Every day, parents put their dirty secrets on this bus to be driven to a school miles out of town.
Vampire Kid: [in his seat counting the addresses outside]
3260. 3264. 3266.
Macy:
But that day... the driver took a different route.
Vampire Kid:
Wrong way. Wrong way. Wrong way.
Macy:
And instead of taking the students home he drove the bus to an abandoned rock quarry. This rock quarry. What the kids didn't know is that, over the years, their parents had become exhausted, and embarrassed. And they were willing to do anything to ease their burden. So one day, the parents approached the bus driver and made him an offer. With the money collected together, they asked him to do the unthinkable. It almost worked perfectly.
Vampire Kid: [he manages to get out of his chains and gets behind the wheel]
Wrong way. Wrong way. Home. Home. I wanna go home. I wanna go home. Home. Home. Home. Home. I wanna go home. Home.
Macy:
The driver was never heard from again. As for the bus, some say it sank so deep that it couldn't be found. Others say the town just didn't want it to be found. For all we know, it's still down there and so are those kids.

Halloween in Warren Valley: A Night of Costumes
Reporter:
Werewolves, zombies and demons of every variety. They've all descended on the normally sleepy town of Warren Valley, OH. Where the holiday and all of its strange traditions are taken very seriously. It's only 8:00 and the streets are already packed with costumed visitors. Some to show off, others to blend in, but all to celebrate the magical night of Halloween. The one night a year where we can pretend to be the scariest thing we think of.

Lessons on Halloween Traditions and Respect
Principal Steven Wilkins: [pulls a knife out of his bag; [w:Jack-o'-lantern|jack-o'-lanterns]
Here. Help yourself. It's for the pumpkin, not you. Promise. All of mine were dull. Ahh, smashin ]? Stealin candy? It's OK. Believe it or not, I was just like you when I was a kid. Til my dad set me straight, that is. See, my dad taught me tonight is about respecting the dead because this is the one night that the dead and all sorts of other things roam free... and pay us a visit. Sorry. All these traditions... jack-o'-lanterns, putting on costumes, handing out treats... they were started to protect us, but nowadays... no one really cares.
