Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark Wiki


Leon and Todd are the two main protagonists of the twenty-third short story in Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill your Bones, The Bad News.

History[]

Leon and Todd loved to play baseball. When they were young, they both played on their town's baseball team; Todd as the second base player while Leon was the pitcher. Upon retirement, they spent most of their time watching baseball games on TV and talking about baseball.

One day, Leon and Todd wondered if baseball existed in heaven. Todd believed that the person who entered heaven first should notify the other somehow. Ironically enough, Todd evidently passed away and entered heaven as Leon patiently waited to hear from Todd.

Leon found Todd sitting in his room one day and was excited to see him and immediately asked what it was like in the afterlife before asking about baseball in heaven. In response, Todd told Leon he had good news and bad news: the good news being that baseball did indeed exist in heaven, having fine teams while Todd played second base on his team similar to how he used to play in his youth. The bad news was that Leon was scheduled to pitch the next day.[1]

General information[]

Physical appearance[]

Leon and Todd are never described during the story. Despite this however, they're shown as skeletons wearing baseball-playing-attire in the illustration for the story, of course symbolizing that they're undead. The letter C logos on their caps indicate they're fans of the Cincinnati Reds.
