Halloween fun - Mad Lib Style

I loved Mad Libs as a kid and now my kids do too. I'm helping at my son's Halloween party tomorrow and wrote one of my own for our activity. Here it is if you'd like a fun activity to do with your kids tonight or tomorrow.  My formatting went wacky when I transferred here, sorry.
