title: here's a story that's REALLY scarifying…
chapter: 1/5
fandom: Stardew Valley
character(s)/pairing(s): Mayor Lewis and the ASS Trio (Abigail, Sebastian, and Sam); no pairings.
summary: Lewis stops. Listens. What is that? There's definitely something—murmuring, soft scuffling. Maybe there's a raccoon digging through his trash can again? Or the wind is moving in and rustling the leaves. Might be—
Oh. No, that's a loud laugh. A familiar laugh. And shushing. Familiar shushing.
He hangs his head and sighs. It sounds like Sebastian, Abigail, and Sam, and if all thee of them are together this late at night? They're probably up to no good.
And the sounds are coming from…the graveyard? Definitely up to no good, then.
[Lewis happens on the town's resident troublemaking trio telling each other scary stories in the graveyard late on Spirit's Eve. an homage to The Simpsons' iconic first Treehouse of Horror episode, written for the Stardew Valley Fic Writers Guild's Spirit's Eve Week event.]

each chapter corresponds to one of the prompts for the Spirit's Eve Week event! this chapter is for the prompt "graveyard." there'll be five chapters in total for this fic!
if you haven't already, i highly recommend watching the first Treehouse of Horror episode of The Simpsons (season 2 episode 3, 10/25/90)—not just for the context around the framing of this story, but because it's a really good episode! probably my favorite of the series.
also, the story referenced here is actually from a very old Mr. Nightmare video. i personally do find it creepy, at least creepy enough that it's stuck with me all these years, so maybe it is just Sam dropping the ball here.
( This year, Spirit’s Eve lands on a day that’s more suited to winter than autumn. )
