Storyline 

Our story begins with a large village back in the 1800's, when witchcraft was the general tradition. The village celebrates Halloween the most out of every holiday, with everyone dressing up and adorning their homes with jack o' lanterns. However, one man has no need for such silly activities. He is a warlock after all, and knows costumes and a few carved pumpkins will not keep evil spirits away. Rather, they will encourage them to stay. The man, known as Francis, has finally contocted the spell he needs (the spell made everyone become their costume) to send all of the world into darkness, but first, he needs some help. Forcing his magic into several large areas, he let his magic slowly creep over the village and the surrounding towns. However, Francis' magic also had an unknown side-effect. While the major hotspots of magic enabled him to take over the town, the magic also entered objects around it's highest concentration. The magic ended up infecting objects (as well as spirits), creating four individuals, known as The Scarecrow, The Gargoyle, The Phantom, and the Lichtress. Using them to his advantage, Francis took over the region with them. Afterwords, he had no use for the four beings, and simply took his magic away from them. However, the four did not die (thanks to the residue of magic left behind after the spell) and soon revived themselves. Knowing the man had betrayed them, the gang planned on getting "even" with their traitorous friend. Will the four be able to kill their once grand master and take back the region, or will they have nothing left to save? Characters 

The Scarecrow: Once a simple pumpkin patch, The Scarecrow was born upon Francis' magic infecting the soil upon which a series of pumpkin patches were grown over. One pumpkin patch (surrounding a beheaded scarecrow) grew tremendously. The patches vines grew into the inside of the scarecrow's clothing, growing the vines into all spaces of the clothing. After a few seconds, the living vines inside the scarecrow tore themselves free from the scarecrow's post, walking over to a pumpkin beside them. The vines took the pumpkin and placed it on top of them, forming a head, effectively creating a living being. Afterwards, the being took a large wooden scythe from a nearby shed, effectively becoming The Scarecrow.
