As a small puppy Sophie was sometimes afraid of the dark. There is a particular two block stretch near the cemetery on which she didn't like travel when dark although this got somewhat better as she got older. There was also a plastic light-up Frankenstein monster that would appear in a yard near our house around Halloween that she didn't like either. It was usually in the early morning light when she'd hesitate as we came within a few houses of it. She was all to eager to get by. I haven't seen this particular household display this Frankenstein in a number of years but just a few nights ago I spotted it again while walking Athena. It brought back memories and really made me miss Sophie. I snapped this photo of the creature:
