Unholy Disguise

It's October 31, 2003.

A group of brave - and maybe just a little bit dumb - teenagers ditched trick-or-treating and decided to explore the town's cemetery. Deep within the graveyard, the group found an old, dirty chest. The bravest of them decided to take a peek inside... and luckily - or unluckily? - the chest was unlocked. Inside, there were... classic old Halloween costumes: a Ghost, a Witch, a Vampire, a Werewolf and a Clown. One by one, just for fun, the teens dressed up, slipping into the dusty costumes. 

But something weird was going on. The vampire's fangs felt way too real. The witch's broom lifted off the ground with a mind of its own, shocking everyone. The werewolf’s claws grew sharp, gleaming in the moonlight. Shadows lengthened around them, swirling with some kind of evil energy.  The ground beneath the party of juvenile trespassers trembled as their powers awakened, the old chest now empty but echoing with a strange sense of destiny fulfilled.

But the powers weren't the only thing they had awakened. Frightening whispers reached their ears, and a thick mist enveloped the cemetery. The whole place just seemed... spookier. And... more alive than ever.

Can the teens survive the Halloween night at the graveyard? Will their curse be broken, allowing them to return to their former human, powerless selves? Will they ever leave this place...?
