The story : Mr. Killup is a grumpy old man who isnt into anything but himself and eating.
His grown son picks up the pieces for him usually and Halloween is no exception.
He gives his father a bowl of Halloween candy and tells him to give it out or he will no longer help him , that includes bringing him food.
Mr. Killup decides to shoo the trick or treaters away from his house by being mean and playing pranks on them , instead of giving the candy away.
At midnight , Mr. Killup's doorbell rings.
He yells for the person behind it to go away , that it is too late and they are getting no candy.
