It was so popular we’ve created a new one, especially for Halloween! It’s really simple to use the story generator; just follow each step to build the components of your Halloween stories, then write them out in full at the end. We’ve also created a handy PDF version of the Halloween Story Generator for you to print off and use with your class; it’s a great free classroom resource.
Let’s start your story…
Choose Your Characters
From the list below, choose two characters to be your heroes and one to be your baddie. For each of your chosen characters, choose three describing words.
Wanda the Witch | Vinnie the Vampire | Zander Zombie |
Midnight the Cat | Jeannie the Genie | Wulfric Wolf |
Old Omar the Ghost | Theodora Fairy | Carlos the Clown |
Wallace the Warlock | Barry Bat | Safira Spider |
A Haunted House | A Ruined Castle | The Foggy Bog |
An Abandoned Village | The Deep, Dark Forest | A Ghost Ship |
A Pirate Cove | The Creepy Mansion | A Mountain Top |
Now imagine that you are in your chosen place, use your senses to answer the following questions…
All good stories have a problem that the characters must try to overcome. Choose yours from the following list (or create your own):
Your Characters need to escape | Someone is being chased | Someone needs to be rescued |
Everyone else has vanished | Someone is trapped in the dark | There’s a scary ghost! |
Now think about the following questions…
During your story your heroes will meet someone who will help them. Choose your new character from the following list:
Bob the Butler | Jenny the Jailor | Gary the Ghoul |
Doris the Dog | Frank Frog | Zainab the Zoologist |
Olive Owl | Lewis the Lion | Nigel the Knight |
And then write down the following…
To create the ending for your story, answer these questions in full sentences:
You now have all of the components that you need for your Halloween stories. In your exercise book or on paper (ask your teacher which they would prefer), write out your story. Remember to use full sentences and punctuation. Use all of the descriptions and ideas that you have created in your plan to bring your story to life. Try to use descriptive adjectives and adverbs.
