A Tito le encantaba aprender cosas nuevas, pero como era un fantasma, no podía ir a la escuela como los demás niños. Un día, mientras exploraba la biblioteca encantada de su casa, encontró un libro muy especial que hablaba sobre el otoño y Halloween. El libro contaba que en Halloween, los niños se disfrazaban y pedían dulces, y que las hojas de los árboles cambiaban de color. Tito se emocionó tanto que decidió salir al pueblo para ver cómo era todo eso. Aunque era invisible, Tito voló alrededor de las casas, observando cómo los niños jugaban y recogían caramelos. Cuando vio a una niña que parecía estar triste porque no había conseguido muchos dulces, Tito decidió ayudarla. Usó un poco de su magia fantasmagórica y, de repente, la cesta de la niña se llenó de dulces. La niña sonrió, y aunque nunca vio a Tito, sintió que algo especial había pasado. Tito regresó a su casita feliz, sabiendo que había hecho una buena obra en Halloween. ¡Fin!
