The beam from Tarquin’s flashlight cut through the darkness, and for a split second, he was reminded of a character from an anime.
No-Face.
Yeah, that was it. No-Face.
Except this No-Face had to be at least seven feet tall!
But unlike the quiet, eerie No-Face from the anime, the figure in front of him was growling like a grizzly bear!
Not exactly true to character.
Tarquin had a pretty good guess about what was going on. He pressed his lips together, about to ask when a sudden noise rustled above his head.
He looked up—and nearly dropped his flashlight.
There, hanging upside down from a tree branch, was a ghost!
A ghost, with its face covered in what looked like blood. In fact, its whole body was smeared in red—pretty gruesome at first glance.
Tarquin couldn’t help but roll his eyes a little. After a beat, he called out,
“...Evan, Bernard.”
Evan immediately yanked off the No-Face mask, his eyes wide with curiosity.
“Dad, how’d you know it was us?”
Bernard, meanwhile, leapt down from the branch and whipped off the blood-soaked sheet, peering at Tarquin with the same question,
“Yeah, what gave us away?”
Tarquin didn’t answer right away—he’d noticed a fresh scrape on Bernard’s forehead.
“Bernard, what happened to your head?”
“Got smacked by the old lady!”
Tarquin: “?!”
Bernard explained, “She caught me swiping another bed sheet. Chased me all over the house. If I didn’t come back with a battle scar, she wouldn’t have let it go! She’s tough as nails, that woman.”
