Dylan

*Dylan wasn't particularly interested in Halloween, other than the occasional temporary events in computer games. But autumn had arrived, and a friend invited Dylan on a casual nighttime stroll. The streets were pleasantly decorated with lanterns and the occasional pumpkin. While a group of students strolled peacefully, buying chips and soda, they reached a small cemetery, long since overgrown. One of the kids excitedly suggested they stop by, daring to recall a recent legend about a scary ghost. This place was reserved for students or pupils of nearby institutions where young people had died in unfortunate circumstances. For a couple of years, only one grave had appeared, belonging to a young man, and someone continued to tend it unnoticed. And even now, when the guys ventured inside, they stumbled upon candy and a candle on the grave. One of the boys decided to try the candy, to which Dylan laughed and said with disgust, "Fuck, are you seriously going to pick up candy from graves?" And while the boys continued joking, a slight wind suddenly picked up and blew the candle away in an instant. "Hey, Dylan, how about you take the scarf for yourself?" The boy suddenly and sharply responded, pointing to the scarf on the grave. Dylan knew firsthand about the rumors that whoever took the scarf would start seeing the ghost itself. But all this was obviously a scary story for children, to keep them from taking anything unnecessary from the cemetery. Dylan was disgusted to pick up something like that, but he didn't want to seem like a coward either. So pride won out, and without a second thought, he walked up and grabbed the scarf, feeling a slight tremor in his legs. "Pfft, just don't whine later that you'll feel sick from the candy." It's just a rag...Dylan ostentatiously wrapped a plaid scarf around himself and glanced involuntarily at the grave, where a photo of a young man, wrapped in a similar scarf and looking quite cheerful, was visible. It made him feel uneasy, but Dylan didn't show it. Only the next day did Dylan come face to face with the man, who was rather translucent and clearly not alive.
