This was great, Dean's stomach leading him into trouble. And Sam rescuing him, always like protective!Sam. Hmm, really surprised that Dean didn't know who his tall rescuer was, even with the altered voice. Like how you have Sam explaining how he found Dean in the next (non-existant) scene. Sneaky.    Sue

Creepy Vanessa! Loved the flashback to the Halloweens of their childhood. Well done!

I finally got to it, V!!!! And I'm so glad I did. Wow. Amazing stuff. I'm sure there's deep meaning to this, but I'm just gonna go with "WOWZA" and um...yeah. Dean naked? Love it. Boiling the parts? Ewwwwwwwww!! No evil cult members get to do that to Dean!!!! And the pie...wow. You'd think Dean would be afraid of pie, but nope. He still loves himself some pie. Me too :D And I'm sure you love pie too, so you get a pie.

Hmmm, I was actually thinking they'd roast his . . . um, parts over the fire like they intended to do with him.  hehehe  I'm glad Sammy was clever and rescued him.

I'm so very glad you liked this story, Cat.  Thank you very much for always reading and reviewing.

You've outdone yourself with this one Vanessa. I loved the dialogue at the beginning. I really felt the men's fatigue and need to stop, no wonder their guard was down. Nothing like vertebrae popping stretches to infer they'd been cooped up in the car too long - and "long lanky bodies" doing the stretching just filled up my trick or trick bag!!

Sam's reflections on Jess and then asking about whether Dean had gone trick or treating with their mother was sad and moving - I had a picture of Sam's sad half smile with those words. And Dean admitting taking his little bro was a big brother at his best - then and now.

Dean's glee at the idea of an eating contest and the $$$ and the trophy was just too much and yeah, I'm with you - it's all about the trophy!! The way you built that scene was description at its gluttonous best: 5 pieces, 7 pieces, 12 pieces for God's sake!!! I felt ill myself!! And your words "Sam stared at his brother with equal parts awe and disgust" said it all - again Sam's facial expression happening over here!!!

Something about Dean naked that feels all wrong even though "Happy Halloween here's my present" was my first thought (thanks for that Vanessa, I'll just pop that in my t or t bag which obviously was not quite full...) I think stripping Dean naked physically is part of stripping his soul naked - vulnerable, humility, exposed - affects his courage, his will, his strength. But obviously not the snark!!! Him being violently ill at the sacrifice spoke volumes of his mantra "saving people" - you added "helplessness"  through your words.

And threatening the prized possessions? a delicacy? They sure are, but not in a caldron!! Dean's shock leapt out the page. And they actually got near enough to cut him?!? Very cruel to brand Dean with the knife too vanessa, but it did act as a diversion to save the family jewels!

Loved how Sam saved the day, clever rescue. and Dean actually blushed! Add "modesty' to your list!! Loved how Dean was more concerned that he nearly lost his bits more than he nearly lost his life!! How Dean!

This was a fantastic Halloween fic. It had scare, creep, action and a min-mystery with a nice helping of Winchester connection. Your readers end up with the trophy!

Author's Response:

Wow--you hit on every important point in my story.  (The parts I thought were important anyway.)  And you focused on the exact motivation behind each one.   I can't thank you enough!  Really wanted this story to be well received.

I'm so very glad to hear that you liked this story!!

Maybe Dean could just swear off apple.....   Great tale, I enjoyed it!

Author's Response: Thank you, danrac.  Glad you enjoyed it.

Poor Dean. All he wanted to do was to enter a pie eating contest... :D So glad Sam saved him! And Dean telling that he took Sam trick-or-teating when they were kids was very cute. So this's creepy, funny, cute... great job Vanessa!

I liked the ending but it would have been fun to know how Sam really found Dean. I'm just so curious :D This's still very well done. It doesn't surprise me at all 'cause your fics are always good ones :)

Author's Response:

Can't tell you how much your lovely review means to me, Scanilla.  I am actually a little proud of how this story turned out.  Though I probably spent too long on the beginning with the boys conversing.  But I didn't have the heart to cut it out.

Thank you!

Gotta say - I found the thought of Dean loosing his delicates damned horrifying in the extreem!

Well done V - great story, scary and funny too!

Author's Response: See--scary and funny.  I just can't help myself.  LOL  Bonechilling evaded me.  :-)  Nevertheless, I'm VERY happy that you liked the story.  I found the idea of Dean losing his intimate parts horrifying too.  Can just imagine what HE'D be thinking!

Vanessa...you little trickster, you...Love not only the title of the piece but the inner chapter title as well....

Naked in a roomful of strangers, and no one to join him but the poor ill-fated fat guy....not Dean's idea of naked fun...unhunh....   and threatening the family jewels.....so not nice....               Scary indeed!!!!!!! wish I could give more than TEN stars
