Girl: “VAMPIRE PICKLE?!” [Noticing her, the vampire pickle pushes the ketchup bottle away and wipes its mouth.]

Girl: “Where’s the garlic?!”

Vampire Pickle: “FOOL! I am a PICKLE! Garlic only makes me STRONGER!” [It leaps onto her chest; she falls back against the kitchen table.] “And daylight is hours away – too late too save you!”

Vampire Pickle: “Ha ha! Prepare to-” [Girl notices a box of toothpicks by her hand, and quickly impales the vampire pickle.] “NAAARRGH!!!”

As the vampire pickle wails and withers away on the toothpick, the girl thinks, “Gotta remember next year – the creepy house gives bad treats!”

Get copies of “Midnight Snack” formatted as a minicomic to give to trick-or-treaters, Halloween party-goers, goblins, etc.!

Assembling the comic is pretty easy! Print the PDF double-sided at 100% (no scaling; don’t let the program “adjust to printer margins” or anything like that). Each copy of the file produces 4 copies of the comic; when you cut them apart, the pages will be in the right order for you to staple & fold. If using scissors instead of a papercutter, you may want to cut after folding. Staple in the center & fold. If you’re using a standard stapler, you may want to fold the comic before stapling or use a ruler to help find the center (at 2 3/4″). If using a long stapler, the measurement marks probably don’t go down to 2 3/4″, so line up a ruler with the one on the stapler to get the added measurement.

[Scene: moonlit night]

[Voice from inside house] “So how did your trick-or-treating go?”

[Two girls are sorting their Halloween candy – a blonde girl in a grim reaper costume and a black-haired girl in a skeleton costume.]

Blonde girl: “Good – but look what that creepy house gave me.”

Black-haired girl: “A pickle?! That’s weird.”

Blonde girl: “Yeah. I guess I’ll put it in the fridge for now…”

Later…at midnight…[sleepy blonde girl, in her pajamas, opens the fridge – then looks wide-eyed in amazement. A pickle with arms, legs, and a face has been using its fangs to drain the ketchup bottle.]

Blond girl: “WHA-?! V- V- V- V-“
