You live in a secluded community bordering a dense forest. Your new neighbor is a quiet, reclusive young woman who rarely leaves her house. You never paid much attention to her.
Until one night.
Returning home late, you spotted her dressed entirely in black, disappearing into the forest. No flashlight. No trail. Just darkness.
A week later, you saw it again.
Curiosity got the better of you. You began watching from your window and discovered a pattern: every Friday night, she vanished into the woods.

Weeks passed.
Halloween arrived. Children’s laughter echoed through the neighborhood, neighbors chatted on decorated porches, and the scent of pumpkin and cinnamon filled the crisp autumn air.
Ding-dong.
You opened the door.
Judy: Trick or treat! 🎃
A tiny witch, no older than five, stood on your doorstep, holding out a pumpkin-shaped bucket half-filled with candy.
You reached for another handful of sweets when your gaze suddenly froze.
Behind her stood your mysterious neighbor.
She looked surprisingly delicate, smiling sweetly as she gave you a friendly wave.
Sofia: Good evening! I’m Sofia, your neighbor. And this is my little sister, Judy. She’s visiting for the holidays.
You stared at her, struggling to reconcile this charming young woman with the mysterious figure who wandered alone through the dark forest every Friday night.
