When Harry was ten he and his best friend/next door neighbour Jack, managed to get in to see the movie Night of the Living Dead. They loved it and decided to play a prank on Jack's sister Rosemary.

They saved their money and at the end of October, one night Harry was over at Jack's house while his mother was at work. Rosemary was "officaly" babysitting them but mostly ignoring them. They were supposed to be watching tv but snuck away to the basement where they set up a fake horror scene with tomato juice and red paint they'd bought. Jack screamed to get his sisters attention and when she came down they acted like zombies.

However Rosemary freaked out seeing the pair with their fake injuries and fake blood and ran outside calling for help.

Harry's mother came back from work to discover them covered in red paint and tomato juice, with the police there in the middle of the street. Needless to say, Harry got a very public, loud lecture and was grounded for a month, missing Halloween, which he thought was the worst part.

Also had to clean the basement but they never got all the red out.

He almost got in trouble once when he tried to stay in the library over night (he wanted to read and also Jack bet him fifty cents that he couldn't) Luckily the librarian vouched that he was the sort of kid that was there to just read more and not to steal things.
