This wasn’t here yesterday?
A bell rings when you open the door. The shop smells like old paper and cloves. Every shelf is full of tiny Halloween things: hand-poured candles, enamel pins, a ceramic ghost that looks like it's about to say something.
The cat hops down from the window and sits next to a small card on the counter. It reads: Today's lucky find is waiting for you.
You leave with a paper bag and the strong feeling you were meant to be here.
Your fate: fortune found.
You followed the strange little shop, and the strange little shop rewarded you.
This is exactly why I keep a running list of my favorite spooky small businesses: go Halloween hunting.
And keep an eye on your inbox because there’s something special coming for Black Friday this year...
Which fate did you get? Hit reply on this morning's email and tell me. Bonus points if you found all six!
