A town superstition says if you get a knock at your door at midnight on Halloween, you must give candy and compliment the costume… or suffer the consequences. No one ever dared to break the rule—until one man did. What followed was a night of whispers, shadows, and a trick-or-treater who wouldn’t leave.

This is The Last Trick-or-Treater — an original Better Off Dread Halloween horror story.

Cinematic, unsettling, and told in first-person confessional style, this story will pull you into the eerie glow of porch lights, the silence of dark hallways, and the chill of what happens when you ignore Halloween’s oldest tradition.
If you love chilling Halloween horror stories, urban legends, creepypasta, or immersive first-person narration, this one will keep you up at night.
