A grave encounter…

After trick-or-treating, 
a teen decides to take a different route than his friends, a shortcut home 
through the cemetery in the dark night.

Halfway across, he’s startled by a tapping noise coming from the misty shadows.

Trembling with fear, he spots 
an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping away at a tombstone.

“I thought you were a ghost,” 
says the relieved teen. “What are you 
doing working so late?”

“Oh, those idiots,” grumbles the old man.

“They misspelled my name!”
