A derelict cottage lay at the end of this beautiful garden that looked like it would be a perfect place for kids to pick their ideal pumpkin. But all was not as it seemed. The garden was walled all the way round apart from one iron door.And inside the cottage a girl was being kept hostage. Unwrapping her blindfold the capturer took her to out to the porch way and pointed to the field.
"I tell you what, I am going to give you a chance. Inside one of these pumpkins is a key to the garden door. You have 5 minutes and this knife to find it. If you can I'll let you go and if you don't ...." the capturer paused leaving the girls mind to wonder.

Deliciously creepy, Tina. Nice work.
oh man, 5 minutes will hardly get her into one of them. I do hope she picks the right one, though I have a feeling it is not in her cards this day.
very eerie and a perfect Hallow's eve tale...
Oooh, very creepy, I love it!
Ooooh scary. But very good and quite in keeping with the season!
Take the knife kid and stab him!
Great take on the prompt, Tina.
Spooky, scary and creepy. Just right for Halloween. Good job.
Excellent take on the prompt! Very creepy, with a dash of the folktale.
Love it!
Best wishes,

This was horrifyingly terrific! I absolutely enjoyed your take on it . A masterpiece I'd say .
As satisfyingly horrific as any good Halloween-month fare should be!
Nice job.
=)
Oooh, very sinister!
Great use of the prompt. :-)
What a delicious story Tina...all the makins of a longer tale...very nice...Peace
I like this! Real suspense & good use of the prompt! Brill!
I bet the little girl didn't even have a cell phone on her either. Poor girl. This was fun and scary.
Cheers,

Oh, now I'm going to have nightmares! Thanks allot!
OK. I am creeped now. I guess I watch too much Criminal Minds. This screams murder. There's probably a lot of little girl bones in that pumpkin patch. Creepy!!~Ames
Now I will dream about that does she find it I wonder?
Nicely done, Tina! A fittingly creepy tale for the holiday. Great job!
Such a tale of horror! Love the suspense you leave us with.
Those pumpkins are fabulously laid on the ground...i suddenly remember the pumpkin pie...yummy...
Oooh, I really like that take on the image. Well done
Well, THAT was different! I liked it!
This is fabulous! You are so creative! Write a book off of this one.
probably not the wisest choice of the kidnapper to hand over a knife to his victim. i know what i would do with that knife and it has nothing to do with those pumpkins!
Nice and creepy. Perfect use of the prompt, I like the way your mind works! Kat
Creepy, creepy Kat! I love the way you went macabre with this innocent little photo of fall pumpkins.
What a great start to my reading this morning!
Really "killer"!
Hey, I'm with Cheryl and RockiBottom all the way! Creepy, but good take on the prompt!
Oooh! I really like where you took the prompt. Seems like something straight out of Saw! Good Job!
