That reminds me of my daughter's first time trick-or-treating. She was really excited and we went to a few of the neighbor houses first.
Then, we got to a house with a legitimately scary prop. She screamed and ran all the way back home.
This year someone had a big animatronic werewolf that scared her at first, but then she started yelling back at it "I'M BRAVE!" and she went and got her candy.
