To whom it may concern

Written for the 2017 spook_me challenge. The prompt I picked was "scarecrow" and the picture I received for it can be seen here.

This is a sequel to a couple of stories I wrote last Halloween, for 31daysoffandom's prompt, "black", and 31_days' prompt, "Good to Eat". You can read the first one, Chicken, here, and the second one, Good to Eat, here.

Mayor Chisel stood on the shattered wooden floor above it, surrounded by Garbagemen in hi-vis jackets and hard hats. The Garbagemen's faces were impassive, for they had no spirit for the Maw to twist and tear.
