” The story dates back 15 years to a time when a boy named Timmy Blake found himself in a grim situation. His parents prohibited him from eating the candy he collected on Halloween. In a moment of desperation, Timmy sneaked downstairs only to discover that his parents were secretly consuming his stash as an aphrodisiac. This revelation ignited a violent rage within him; in a fit of madness, he ended his parents’ lives, and his very first taste of candy sparked an insatiable sweet tooth that would haunt the town. With an unquenchable thirst for confectioneries, Timmy resorted to a horrifying act—he cut open his parents to feast on the candy they ingested.
