To most children, a graveyard is a frightful place, especially on this night of all nights. However, to this boy, it was no such thing. Leaning down, he placed some small candies neatly in a pile: an offering to the departed. Each October 31<sup>st<\/sup> before midnight, he would make the trek to his mother\u2019s gravesite to share the Halloween goodies. \u201cI promise to bring more tonight,\u201d he whispered.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; One fateful Halloween night, when Jack was very young, he lost his mother. She had promised the best night ever, all the treats he could eat, and showed him three glowing jellybeans\u2013telling her little son that they were <em>magic<\/em>. He had scattered memories but remembered delicious goodies, candy rain, then terrible laughter, screams, and thunderous shaking.
