Illustrated by
Buket Erdogan.
When Mouse takes a walk one spooky night, he sees and hears creepy, rustling things. As he investigates, he discovers they are merely bats or leaves--"not so scary after all." Then he hears a knocking and finds trick-or-treaters. The resolution to the story is shown in the appropriately dark, whimsical illustrations when Mouse returns home with a piece of candy corn.
