Description
After midnight, the playground behind the church belongs to other visitors. Two small ghosts slip through the iron fence and race for the swing, arguing over who gets to sit in front. They pump their little legs, or what pass for legs, higher and higher until they nearly loop over the bar, giggling like the children who play there by day. The owl in the oak tree has seen this a hundred times and still watches every swing, unblinking and amused. When the bells ring one, they vanish together in a puff of mist.
This box catches the pair mid-swing, a scene that is more playful than spooky. Small and easily placed, it tucks onto a desk, a bookshelf or a fireplace mantel, and it pairs beautifully with pumpkins and twinkle lights. It is a sweet gift for siblings, best friends or a couple who love Halloween together, and a fun addition for anyone who collects seasonal treasures. Open it to keep a small surprise hidden away until the clock strikes twelve. The two figures are painted with sweet, mischievous expressions.
