Detective Logan arrived on the scene of a crime on Halloween night. An old woman, Miss Rita Olig, was laying unconcous on the floor, a Halloween mask on her face, her head surrounded by blood. A plastic bowl lay nearby, the candy strewn everywhere. Another detective went over what they thought happened, ‘she was upstairs when the first trick-or-treaters rang the bell. She put on the mask and grabbed the bowl. She must have slipped on the pearls and tumbled down the stairs. Suddenly, a man who introduced himself as Miss Olig’s nephew and her niece walked in, seemingly unaware of the tragedy. ‘Aunt Rita!’ Bobby, the nephew, gasped. The detective told him ‘Your aunt had an accident. She’s dead. The kids had been coming up to the door for half an hour and getting no answer. One of them finally looked through the window and saw her. ‘Why is she wearing the mask?’ asked Bobby. ‘She promised she wouldn’t do that this year. We were suppose to take her to dinner!’ Emma, the niece added, ‘Well, obviously, she changed her mind. I don’t know how many times I told her not to wear that mask on the stairs.’ Detective Logan asked, ‘When did you last see your aunt?’ Bobby answered, “Er, I came by this morning. My daughter left her jumper here. Aunt Rita made me tea and we talked a bit.’ Detective Logan turned to the other. ‘This was no accident, it was murder.’
