(I assume that there's many grammar errors in the story, but bare with me cause I sped through this short tale!)

The Story of Jack:
The poor Jack's life was rough one.The hated man of the city for his image. The image that gave the town a bad name, the name only excepting for the poor! Jack was stuffed in carved pumpkin suit. This was his punishment, this was what he got for being poor, for being born... poor. Through all of Jack's pain, through all the things he was faced, he always kept a smile for he knew that his life was to get better one day, or so he though....

Jack the man carved in a pumpkin was still hated and still seem as a man of shame even with the suit to hide him real self. The towns people hated him, despised him, and wanted him dead. The image of the town couldn't be ruined because of this one man! Later that faithful week since he was put into the suit of shame that hide himself,he was grabbed by the people and set onto a stick that they lit. As they finally watched the young man burn none felt a slight glimpse of shame on themselves they only felt pride towards what they'v done! As Jack burned from the arms and legs he looked at the people with anger.

Jack now only had a heart of pain that needed to be filled. Jack broke the stick and rope that binned him to his death and looked towards the people. With only a slight glimpse of a man he would flicker towards then like a blown candle in the night. With one faint touch the people would burn and burn until only the heads were left and by these heads he has made burn he'd put the a small golden coin and blow out the candles of the night!

Jack did no longer exists only the man who went by the name of Jack O' Lit was left and the fire that covered his body would now stay burned into his soul for eternity! It's said that Jack still roams the lands killing the rich and leaving a small golden coin towards the carved out head of his victims!

Happy October everyone and hope you enjoy! :D
