On Halloween night there are many frightening things. Of them, though, losing your corn or pumpkins to a wild Claire is one of the scariest. That's why every farmer will have his Scareclaire set up in the field. No, you didn't misread that. No crow is coming to eat a pumpkin or an ear of corn, so the farmers don't need to scare them away. What they do fear though, is wild Claire, coming in the night, cackling and shrieking through the field, looking for a juicy pumpkin to take home and eat.
So farmers set out their Scareclaire, holding one big pumpkin in its hands to lure a wild Claire. Then, when she comes sneaking, cackling and shrieking for the pumpkin, the Scareclaire bops her in the head with it, then grabs her and tickles her until she can't breathe! After laughing that much, she won't have the energy to grab a pumpkin, so she runs back home and goes to sleep, thinking about how she'll get a pumpkin the next night.
