500-word story for the April 17, 2026 weekend write-in prompt - manual

My second volume of 500-ish word stories based on the Weekend Writein prompts.

Originally written for the WriteOn Weekend Write-In prompt themed "Macabre Menagerie" - 30 October to 1 November 2015. With no word limit, tell a story that includes at least three of these elements: Witchcraft, face paint, candy corn, ducks, a candle, a mirror, chanting, dread. This is a simple imaginary tale of a single malt distillery, all of it based on fact and tradition. For self-challenge, I've stuck to the 500 words. Cheers...
