Many years ago, the autumn witch, Lilium Elderwood, came to Ponyville to spread delight and fright on Nightmare Night with her beautiful costumes. But times have changed since the great communal divide between Pegasi, Unicorn, and Earth Ponies, and the town has become rather bleak.

During her annual 'rounds,' she hears a story from a local tavern about an incident that led to the death of many young stallions and mares. An incident Lilium was responsible for. And things took a sinister turn as one of her victims became something of a town legend—a vengeful spirit out to seek penance for the witch that ruined her life.

Is it all just some scary story to frighten wayward witches like herself? Or has Lilium's past transgressions come back to haunt her?

And what is up with that silly-looking scarecrow?

Warning: The story contains a dubious sex scene, some spooky scarecrows, revenge, social commentary, bizarre deaths, supernatural horror, and plenty of blood. If any of these are not your cup of tea, this story is not for you.
