Night of Squisymanhawlow

Once in the land of Hallowtree there was a deep hole in the ground. And in that hole lived the SCARYEST Monster that ever lived. All of the witches, vampires, frankenstines, mummys, and ghosts were scared of him. And every Halloween night he would hide behind a bush and scare whoever walked by. โ€œBOO! ha ha ha! Iโ€™ve got you NOW!โ€ he would say. So this Halloween no one was allowed to go trick-or-treating. Everyone was so sad that they couldnโ€™t go trick-or-treating so one day, Bat Girl came to save the day. She went to Hallowtree island and climbed the rigety ladder into the hole. The Monster said, โ€œBOO!โ€ But Bat Girl wasnโ€™t afraid. โ€œCan I talk to you?โ€ said Bat Girl. โ€œWhy do you scare people? Now people canโ€™t go trick-or-treating tommorow,โ€ said Bat Girl. โ€œOh-NO! People arenโ€™t allowed to go trick-or-treating?โ€ the Monster said. โ€œBoo-hoo-hoo,โ€ cried the Monster. โ€œOh, donโ€™t cry. I guset want you to say youโ€™re sorry,โ€ said Bat Girl. โ€œOkay, if people get to go trick-or-treating,โ€ said the Monster. So Bat Girl and Squisymanhawlow went to apologize to everyone who went trick-or-treating. โ€œIโ€™m very sorry that I was scaring everyone so this year I not going to scare anyone!โ€ said Squisymanhawlow. โ€œHorrrraaaayyyy!โ€ everyone yelled and everyone was happy! The End!

The Witch That Got The Worst Halloween Ever!

by Zoey Lazzaro

โ€œEEEEHHHE, HEEEHHHE, HEEHHHE.โ€ The witch screeched loudly.

โ€œHappy Halloween!โ€

She loved to scare people and loved to do pranks and tricks. On one

Halloween she set off on her broom and went to go make Halloween,

Halloweenโ€ฆ So she decided to use her powers to go around and to change

peopleโ€™s costumes as they were Trick or Treating.

So she took off and came to the first group of kids. She waved her wand

and said, โ€œAnd one of these for you, and for you, and for you.โ€ She changed one

kid to a fairy princess, one kid to a vampire, one kid to a lap top. โ€œIโ€™m good!โ€

The witch was happy with herself. โ€œWell, now I can win at everything because I

have powers, very magical powers!โ€ the witch screamed loudly in a voice that was

screechy.

Everyone stared at her but thenโ€ฆ there were lots of kids Trick or Treating and she

had made a scene.

She said, โ€œHey, you guys, you are not supposed to see me.โ€

โ€œBut we can, so ha,โ€ yelled one kid.

โ€œOh no,โ€ she cried.

Once she realized she could be seen, the witch could not win at anything, not

even using her powers. And that was the end of the witchโ€™s Halloween pranks.

Just then a kid poured a bucket of water over the witch. The water turned to

slime so the witch could not be killed. Phew.

โ€œHey what are you doing? Donโ€™t pour that bucket of water on me!โ€ the witch

screamed.

Then another kid dumped water on her and you guessed it, that was the end of

the witch.

A Night

By Mary Chapman, 10

Jaffrey Grade School

A long time ago there was a girl named Mary. She was very

interested in an old abandoned house. One day she went in the creepy

house. Suddenly the door slammed shut, as well as all of the windows.

Mary tried to get out, but the door wouldn’t budge. After a while Mary

started to hear a voice. The voice told Mary not to be scared and that he

would help her to get out. Mary believed him and tried to be calm.

After a bit of walking around the house, she saw a doll that started to

walk over to her. Mary tried to run away but her feet were surrounded by

roots of trees. The doll got closer and closer then she said, โ€œIf you hear a

voice don’t listen to it.โ€ The doll said it over and over again. Then the doll

melted right in front of Mary but was still saying, โ€œDon’t listen to it.โ€ Mary

kept walking but a little faster than normal.

Mary found a long hallway, and at the end there was a door with

moonlight coming through the cracks. Mary was very happy so she ran to

the door, but roots came from the floor again. The roots were pulling Mary

down as she called the voice for help, but he didnโ€™t come all he said was

โ€œDo you know who Puppeteer is?โ€

Mary told him โ€œYes, yes I do know who he is but heโ€™s just a legend.โ€

The voice told Mary that he was the Puppeteer. Mary got scared and

didnโ€™t know what to say. Mary suddenly heard the doll, but now it was

laughingโ€ HA HA I told you not to listen HA HAโ€ Over and over again.

โ€œDon’t you know the legend of the Puppeteer!โ€

Mary was scared but still answered โ€œY-yes but I never believed it.โ€

Puppeteer stopped laughing then said, โ€œLet me tell you the rest of it.โ€

Mary didnโ€™t know the rest of the legend she didnโ€™t even know there was

more.

Puppeteer told her, โ€œIf you donโ€™t believe it you will see him, and if you

see him you will be possessed by him.โ€

Mary was scared so she tried to get out of the roots but they got

tighter. When Puppeteer got right near her he said, โ€œBYE BYE!โ€ In a flash

Puppeteer was Mary and the voice was in her own head.

Puppeteer will live as Mary until she dies. When Mary dies her voice dies

too, and Puppeteer will find a new person to possess.

Arctic Dinosaur

It was January 25, in the glacial Arctic, Matt and his explorers were in their base having leisure time. Most of them were studying crystals and others were still exploring. Suddenly he heard someone outside yell โ€œHelp us!โ€ He also heard โ€œPlease help us,open up the door!โ€ That was exactly what he did, but when he opened the door all he saw was torn limbs and the snow was blood red.

The next night was very stormy and even Matt admitted that he was frightened by the large storm. Just then he heard one of the explorers yell โ€œAhhh it burns!โ€ The plastic tarp in front of that explorer had lit on fire from the lightning. He heard and saw absolutely nothing but tracks. Dinosaur tracks.

He saw that the tracks led to a dim cave. When he got there it was even darker. Then Matt saw a giant hole full of boiling hot water. The dinosaurs were cooking them. โ€œHe would have to save them.โ€ He thought. Just then over his shoulder he saw the entrance to the cave become covered with snow. He felt the ground tremble and shake. His thoughts were racing. Then he fell into a hole and he knew he would be falling to his certain death.

The Mysterious Bride

What if someone made a promise and they broke it? In the early 19 hundreds a lady just got married and her husband made a promise to never leave her. A few years later the man found another woman to marry and he drove home to tell his wife that he was going to get in a divorce. He got home and told her the news. The words she said were, โ€œYou made a promise.โ€ She was so mad she screamed. The man ran out the door and put his ring on the table in her house before he ran away.

The next day she got a letter from her ex husband inviting her to his wedding because he felt bad. She started crying and screaming and was lying on the floor because of how much it reminded her of her wedding. So she made a potion to make her a ghost. She was going to haunt him and his wife

Two days latter the girl put them in an inner dimension and she never brought them back. So she did something terrible – she ate there ice cream sundaes. Dun dun dun!

One day two little kids moved into her old house, but they did not know that the lady still lived there. But this time she was going to do a lot worse than she did to her ex husband. The kids heard a weird nose but the lady was not going to haunt them that day. She wasnโ€™t going to start until it was the 13th day, because most people think that day is haunted. The kids heard a voice saying, โ€œMove far away from this house. Bad things will happen. You have been warned!โ€ The kids screamed and ran out and they never came back. But they didnโ€™t know that the bride was still after them. Who was the person who warned them? I guess weโ€™ll never know.

The Haunted Titanic

By: Emily B., Grade 4, Jaffrey Grade School

What if the Titanic never sunk and your best friend was not an ordinary kid? When Maple found out that she was going to move to New York, she went wild.

โ€œWhat do you mean weโ€™re moving?! We have stayed in this house for so long and we have to move?!โ€ Maple lived in a small cottage in Ireland. She was super sad because she had lived there ever since she was born.

โ€œDonโ€™t worry Maple,โ€ says her mom โ€œIโ€™m pretty sure there will be kids on the Titanic, I mean, that would be silly if you were the only kid on the boat.โ€

Maple looked down at her black boots. Even though she and her mom where poor, Maple got money for helping load cargo on ships. So she got $5 an hour. She got black boots, leggings and a black dress at her favorite thrift store.

Mapleโ€™s mom knelt down and whispered calmly, โ€œI know how scared you are about the move but you need to pack, ok?โ€ Maple did as she was told and went to her bedroom to pack.

The next day Maple and her mom went on to the Titanic and to Mapleโ€™s surprise there were about 30 other kids on the boat. One of the kids saw her and said, โ€œHi, my name is Drake.โ€

โ€œHi, m-my name is M-Mapleโ€ said Maple shyly. Maple went down stairs and found her bedroom and to her surprise Drake was sitting on one of the beds.

โ€œIโ€™m your roommate for the trip to New York.โ€ Maple was content with it since he was the only friend on the Titanic. Suddenly the boat started to shift.

โ€œWa!โ€ Screamed Drake and Maple as they flew out the door and into the hallway. Mapleโ€™s mom rushed down the stars from the top, she said

โ€œAre you two alright?โ€ she looked pale but it started to fade when Maple said, โ€œYa, were fine. But what happened,โ€

โ€œWell weโ€ฆ. Where did Drake go?โ€

Suddenly Maple and her mom heard an evil sound. โ€œWaha ha ha ha, I tricked you for a real boy instead Iโ€™m a vampire!โ€ Mapleโ€™s mom suddenly turned into a ghost. Maple ran up stairs and she saw that everyone else were also ghosts. She ran back down stairs but it didnโ€™t take long before she realized she was trapped.

Drake laughed and said, โ€œNow I only have one more person to take care of.โ€ Then all Maple could see was total blackness and the Titanic was never seen again.

The Haunted Cruise

It all happened 104 years ago, Tommy was tap dancing on the Titanic, but it sank and Tommy disappeared with the rest of the people on the huge cruise ship.

It was a stormy night for Mary and Traci. So they went to bed earlier than usual (especially since they were on a cruise).

They closed their eyes. Suddenly they heard a sound that was like a whisper, โ€œOoooo tippity tap tippity tap.โ€

โ€œStop it!โ€ Mary mumbled sleepily.

โ€œThat wasnโ€™t me,โ€ Traci said sitting up.

โ€œOoooo tippity tap tippity tap,โ€ the voice said.

Traci and Mary were too afraid to move. The voice grew closer and closer and closer, untilโ€ฆ

A little boy appeared. โ€œHello,โ€ the voice said, โ€œmy name is Tommy whatโ€™s your name?โ€

โ€œMary and Traci,โ€ They both said at the same time.

โ€œIโ€™m sorry to bother you by my tap dancing. Iโ€™ll be on my way!โ€ Tommy said leaving the room.

Mary and Traci went to sleep that night. They thought that they would have a great rest of the cruise! For now…

Doll at Midnight

In Maine in an old abandoned house in the middle of the woods, in the early 1800โ€™s, Lauren was wondering something. What if a doll came alive? โ€œI wouldnโ€™t be frightened,โ€ she said. โ€œIโ€™d probably laugh.โ€

She knew this house was haunted, but her friends had dared her to do it. Suddenly she fell through the floorboards.

Lauren was staring at a doll. She thought it was cute, but turned around and saw the doll again. Now she was a little freaked out. She started up the basement stairs. The doll was waiting for her there!

All the lights started flickering black, red, and black again. Now Lauren just wanted to go home! Then Katherine came in with her dog Spot. Katherine saw a switch on the doll. She flipped it.

The Woods

It was a dark damp night in the middle of the woods at dusk. There were three teenagers. Their names were John, Matt and Lance. They got reports of people going missing. So they went looking for the people.

The first place they went looking was the woods. When they got to the woods they started looking. A little while later something took Matt but John and Lance didnโ€™t notice, so they kept looking. Later the thing took Lance but John didnโ€™t notice.

A little later John did notice and went looking for them. When it got dark John found a old broken down shack. It was dark and he had lost the campsite, so he needed to sleep so his only choice was to go in the shack. When he got closer he saw something in the window but it was to dark to see what it was.

When John opened the door he saw his two friends, Matt and Lance, sitting in the corner. When John saw Lance and Matt he was really confused. Lance and Matt said that they were looking for John because John just went into the woods. They got out of the house and went looking for the campsite. When they found the campsite it was destroyed. That meant they had nowhere to sleep. They started to walk back to town.

When they were almost back they saw something in the trees with glowing eyes, it was the thing in the window that John saw. They started to run but the thing was too fast. When it finally got out of the tree the teens saw the thing but they didnโ€™t know what it was. The sun was too bright for the creature to stay in the sun, so it went back in the woods. The teens got back into town they saw everyone outside. When the people saw the teens they were all glad that they survived in the woods. The teens told everyone that they didnโ€™t know what the thing in the woods was.

I grabbed a paper towel put it on my hand, I yelled โ€œHelp my skin itโ€™s peeling off!โ€ Then I took the paper towel off. I said it was a joke and they chased me home, I locked the door behind me.

That night I stroked my cat, Alex then I noticed hair on my arms. I ran to the bathroom turned on the razor, I cut all my hair off my arm. Then during dinner I noticed hair on both of my arms and legs. I ran to the bathroom and locked the bathroom door. I didnโ€™t use the razor, and I unlocked the window and I jumped out. I found dogs there, one had Lilyโ€™s necklace, the other one had Cucumberโ€™s scarf. Then when blinked I was the size of the dogs.

The next day I enjoyed being a dog, me and my friends love barking at cars and the paperboy. Thatโ€™s when a car pulled up in our driveway, a doctor stepped out of the car and he was carrying something. My owners stepped out of my house. He was holding my cat, Alex as a human baby.

THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST

It was a dark night when Mowy and Keena

went outside their house to play.(Mowy has long,

jet black hair, brown eyes and a round nose)

They are sisters ( Keena has long, dark brown

hair, blue eyes and a round nose) They went outside

in their backyard to play. Soon they ran into the

forest behind their backyard.

They lost track of time and tried to find their

house but instead they just tried to look for shelter.

Next they found an old, wooden cabin in the middle

of the forest. It was wooden and had a wooden

chopping stand in the fenced in backyard. They went

into the cabin and put the front light on but Mowy

saw something move outside and she whispered to

Keena โ€œI saw something move outside, let’s go

check it outโ€

When they got out, the door automatically swung

closed and they could hear words as the door closed.

The words sounded like, โ€œGo awayโ€ so they stayed

outside the cabin to sleep.

Next they built a fire. In the morning they woke

up and found the Fire burnt. The ashes were on

the ground. I tried to go in the house and finally got

in and ran to the forest beginning. I found a

vampire with a white face as white as a a birch tree

with white insides, red glowing eyes and red teeth.

The vampireโ€™s teacher were all bloody. They found

it in their house, hiding behind the door. It was

coming at them so fast. So now Keena got some

wood and shaped it fast into a spear. We stabbed it

in the vampire’s heart and soul. Next we went to

bed and woke up to see it was only a dream and they

laughed so hard.

curious about the light and scared but Baby trusted it would lead to

something good. Baby heard pots and pans rattling in the kitchen. Baby

freaked out and ran to the light it was the night guard office. So Baby ran

into the night guard’s office Baby looked around and found the device for

the cameras. Baby looked at all the cameras. Chica and Bonnie were

gone. Baby checked the right door with the lights and then checked the left

door with the light โ€œahhh! Shut the door!!โ€ Bonnie was at the door. Baby

shut the door and then went on the cameras again but Baby couldn’t find

Chica so Baby shut the door without even checking the lights.

Baby checked the left door light and Bonnie was gone. Baby opened

the door and checked the time โ€œit is 4 am. this is good, the pizza place is

going to open soon.โ€ Baby checked the lights and nobody was at the door.

All Baby checked on the cameras were pirates cove and the main stage

where Freddy is.

Baby checked the Pirates Cove and Foxy was not in his cove so

Baby instantly closed the door. Foxy pounded on the door hard. โ€œI am not

afraid of you guys any more. Just stop it!โ€ It was 5 am Baby is almost out of

power. After the pounding stopped, Baby opened the door. โ€ YES itโ€™s 6

amโ€ Freddy, Chica, Bonnie were at their original places and then Baby

The Girl In The Closet

Lisa Stepps was a beautiful young girl. She was fearless, smart,

friendly, and grateful for what she had.

One night she tiptoed downstairs because she heard an echo. She

looked in the living room and saw a doll. She thought the doll was pretty.

She wondered to herself whose could this be? She picked it up and

skipped upstairs.

When she got upstairs she whispered to the doll โ€œIโ€™ll play with you in

the morning.โ€

A half hour later at 12:00, the doll woke up and grabbed Lisa by the

feet. The doll dragged Lisa into her closet.

Lisaโ€™s mom woke up an hour later and heard Lisa screaming. She ran

to Lisaโ€™s room and found a doll on a tall pile of books locking Lisa in. Lisaโ€™s

mom threw the doll into the neighbor’s yard. She got Lisa out of the closet

and hugged her tight.

The next day the little girl next door found the doll.

Jaffrey Grade School

The Night of The Puppets

One dark and cold night, Ben told his mother,

โ€œMom, Iโ€™m going out dirtbiking in the forest.โ€

She said, โ€œOkay be back by 10:00p.m.โ€

So Ben set out to his dirtbike. He put his

helmet on and said to himself, โ€œThis is going to be

fun. Iโ€™m not afraid of anything.โ€ Ben started riding

his dirtbike into the forest.

On his way he heard a strange sound coming

from the ground. He got scared for a moment, but

he ignored it and went on. He was going really fast

when he saw a hole. He tried to slow down, but he

couldnโ€™t do it fast enough. Ben fell down the hole

and on the way down he noticed a ladder. It was a

mineshaft. An abandoned mineshaft.

When Ben hit the bottom, it was a hard impact.

He stood up and looked around. He saw a bunch of

dirtbike parts scattered around. He also saw a lot

of creepy red demon eyes looking at him. They moved

toward Ben, and he saw that it was demon puppets!

Ben slowly started to walk away from the

puppets, but the puppets kept following him. Even

when Ben hid somewhere, the demon puppets kept

finding him. The red demon eyes had powers to blast

lasers at anything! Ben somehow dodged a lot of

blasts, but one hit him on the arm. Ben got dizzy

and fell over.

When he finally got up, something caught his

eye. It was a swirly door like thing. After a while

of studying, he understood, it was a portal! Ben

told himself, โ€œI really hope this portal teleports

me somewhere close to home.โ€ The next minute, Ben

dove through the portal.

Inside the portal, it was weird because he felt like

he was flying. Suddenly, Ben hit the ground. He was

sliding in the dirt for a while and then stood up. He

looked around and he thought, โ€œThis place looks

familiar.โ€ Ben looked at his watch and it said

10:00p.m. That place did look familiar because it

was his backyard! Ben ran over to his house, ran

through the door and hugged his Mom. His Mom

was surprised because Ben rarely hugged her. Ben

was happy but now Ben knew that he was scared of

some things!

nervously.

Mark turned around โ€œahh zombie!!!โ€ he screamed.

Jake ran up to the hole, he slipped โ€œOh no!!!โ€ he yelled.

The zombie pounced onto mark. โ€œHelpโ€ he said.

Luke explained, โ€œJake, push the zombie off of mark, and then

Get on markโ€™s snowmobile and push the gas.โ€

โ€œokโ€

Mark pushed the gas and hit the zombie with his snowmobile

and drove right out of the hole.

Then a clown jumped out at them. The boy and his

dog started running. The boy tripped and rolled down to

the bottom of the hill. At the bottom there were 4 clowns.

A Night

By Mary Chapman, 10

Jaffrey Grade School

A long time ago there was a girl named Mary. She was very

interested in an old abandoned house. One day she went in the creepy

house. Suddenly the door slammed shut, as well as all of the windows.

Mary tried to get out, but the door wouldn’t budge. After a while Mary

started to hear a voice. The voice told Mary not to be scared and that he

would help her to get out. Mary believed him and tried to be calm.

After a bit of walking around the house, she saw a doll that started to

walk over to her. Mary tried to run away but her feet were surrounded by

roots of trees. The doll got closer and closer then she said, โ€œIf you hear a

voice don’t listen to it.โ€ The doll said it over and over again. Then the doll

melted right in front of Mary but was still saying, โ€œDon’t listen to it.โ€ Mary

kept walking but a little faster than normal.

Mary found a long hallway, and at the end there was a door with

moonlight coming through the cracks. Mary was very happy so she ran to

the door, but roots came from the floor again. The roots were pulling Mary

down as she called the voice for help, but he didnโ€™t come all he said was

โ€œDo you know who Puppeteer is?โ€

Mary told him โ€œYes, yes I do know who he is but heโ€™s just a legend.โ€

The voice told Mary that he was the Puppeteer. Mary got scared and

didnโ€™t know what to say. Mary suddenly heard the doll, but now it was

laughingโ€ HA HA I told you not to listen HA HAโ€ Over and over again.

โ€œDon’t you know the legend of the Puppeteer!โ€

Mary was scared but still answered โ€œY-yes but I never believed it.โ€

Puppeteer stopped laughing then said, โ€œLet me tell you the rest of it.โ€

Mary didnโ€™t know the rest of the legend she didnโ€™t even know there was

more.

Puppeteer told her, โ€œIf you donโ€™t believe it you will see him, and if you

see him you will be possessed by him.โ€

Mary was scared so she tried to get out of the roots but they got

tighter. When Puppeteer got right near her he said, โ€œBYE BYE!โ€ In a flash

Puppeteer was Mary and the voice was in her own head.

Puppeteer will live as Mary until she dies. When Mary dies her voice dies

too, and Puppeteer will find a new person to possess.

A Visit to Grandma[s

Once there was a boy named Lolly, who was visiting his grandma for

the first time. When he got to grandma[s he got really scared and was

holding his mom’s leg. When he saw grandma he thought she was scary.

That night grandma told Lolly about the elephant of doom and how he

tramples people. The only thing he’s scared of is blood. So if you hear

Thump! Thump! and the ground is vibrating, find some blood and you[ll be

good. He will run away, far away. He fell asleep that night scared enough to

cry. He thought if he did cry grandma might get mad. He did not cry.

The next day Lolly asked grandma,

โ€œIs the elephant of doom real?โ€

โ€œNo one knows what do you think?โ€

โ€œI think I[m scared .โ€

โ€œDon[t worry ok?โ€

He went outside to play, but he heard echoes, so he ran inside as fast as

he could. He asked grandma โ€œWhat was that noise?โ€

โ€œIt was just an owl.โ€

He went back outside and played horse shoes. He was scared for a little

bit, but then he got used to hearing echoes and he was not scared.

That night when Lolly went to bed he had a headache, so he decided

to go outside. He went outside and he heard a โ€œclickโ€ OH NO! The door

locked. He was stuck outside! Suddenly he fell to the ground and it was

vibrating and he was bleeding. The elephant of doom is coming . He came

closer and closer and trampled Lolly. Lolly remembered he was bleeding,

he showed his blood to the elephant and the elephant ran away.

The next day he woke up at the hospital with things everywhere. He

saw mom, dad and grandma. Lolly said to grandma. โ€ Can I come again?โ€

โ€œOf course!โ€

PORTALS

On Halloween night, instead of going trick or treating, Austen,Jared and Zander went

into an abandoned house. When Zander shut the door, the door was stuck. They saw a portal

and Jared yelled โ€ I am going inโ€. Zander said โ€œno way ,you donโ€™t even know whatโ€™s in thereโ€,

but Jared jumped in anyway. So, Austen and Zander jumped in after him. When they got out

from the portal they were on a flying island โ€œDang it, Jared, you got us lost!โ€ yelled Zander.

โ€Where is the portal back to the abandoned house?โ€ asked Jared. Austen replied โ€I donโ€™t knowโ€.

Jared shouted, โ€œcreepy clown!โ€ โ€œNo way, I donโ€™t believe you!โ€ shouted Zander. โ€œTurn aroundโ€

said Austen. โ€œAhh!โ€ everyone said. โ€œWhat did you do?โ€ said Zander to Jared. โ€œNothing, now

stop blaming stuff on meโ€, replied Jared. โ€œLook, another islandโ€ said Austen.

A creepy thing called the Rake jumped out. It had white, smooth skin with dark eyes and

vicious claws. Jared yelled, โ€œthe Rake has Zander! Run!โ€ โ€œNo wayโ€ yelled Austen. Jared left

Austen and Zander alone, but Austen helped Zander and punched the Rake in the face. Austen

and Zander started to run. They could not find Jared, so instead they wanted to build a house

for shelter. They decided to make it out of wood. Austen was looking for three days, and they

could not find Jared. Zander said, โ€œIโ€™ll keep on building the house. You keep on looking for

Jared.โ€ Austen was looking for two more hours until Jared showed up with his arm cut off and

scratches all over him. Jared came back and said, โ€œthe Rake is stalking us!โ€ He also said that

he found a large cave on a big island. โ€œHow are we going to get there?โ€ asked Austen. โ€œThere

is a bridge from this island to the other islandโ€ said Jared.

Then Austen, Jared, and Zander went to the cave that Jared was talking about. They

were looking in the cave for a long time. โ€œGuys, I think I found the portal back, โ€œAusten said.

They jumped in the portal, and they entered the world of Minecraft. They had to gather

materials. Zander built the house while Austen and Jared got the iron, diamond, cobblestone,

and wood. Jared also got food and while he was getting food, he said, โ€œI found the diamond!โ€

Austen took the diamond. When Zander was done with the house, they all went in.

The ground turned into TNT. Austen was holding flint and steel. He hit the TNT and

went into the house. Austen and Zander had God mode on, but Jared didnโ€™t. Jared was

begging for God mode until the whole world got nuked. Jared died, but Jared pressed the

respawn button and was lost. Austen and Zander were looking for Jared. Jared had

10,000,000 diamonds. Jared turned into an Awesome Cyborg and was now immortal. Austen

found the portal that they could get back to the abandoned house. โ€œI hope this worksโ€Austen

said and they jumped in.They were back at the abandoned house and ran out of it.They went to

Austenโ€™s house and never went to abandon houses again.

The Haunted Movie

Theatre

Dylan daniels,

Grade: 4th, school: Jaffrey grade School

It was December 30th, 2015 when a boy

named Ben was wearing a red shirt and a pair of

jeans, spiked hair and blue eyes. he was also 13

years old. Ben wanted to see the new movie

Zombie World 2. Benโ€™s mom and dad were jim and

scarlet. Scarlet was wearing a blue dress and

heels Jim was wearing a t shirt and jeans.

Ben had asked if his dad could take him to

see Zombie World 2. His dad said โ€œsure but youโ€™re

paying for the ticketโ€.

โ€œOkโ€ replied Ben. The next day he and his dad went

to see the movie.

When the movie started Ben and his dad

had realized the popcorn wasnโ€™t really popcorn

it was spiders! Then he and his dad realized it

wasnโ€™t the movie he had planned to see.They also

noticed they were surrounded by Zombies,

Vampires, Skeletons, and other creepy monsters!

Ben and his dad got so creeped out they

both ran outside, tripped on the sidewalk and

went face first in the snowbank. They ran back

home and Benโ€™s mom asked โ€œhow was the movie?โ€

โ€œHORRIFYINGโ€ Ben mumbled and noticed the

monsters had kicked the door down and had axes.

Ben ran to the yard trying not to get sliced by

the axes. The monsters chased Ben in the yard.

Then Ben took one of the axes from one of the

Skeletons because they werenโ€™t very strong.

He sliced one of the Zombies and the

Zombie dropped to the ground. Then he got a

flashlight from inside and flashed it at the

Vampires. they turned to ashes. Ben tried to

think of a way to get rid of the Skeletons.

โ€œThatโ€™s itโ€ he had an idea he would push the

Skeletons over and pull his ribs and break them.

Ben thought of a way to get rid of the Zombies

and so he thought of a way. he would go to the

cemetery and push the zombies in their grave.

After that he was terrified. Ben woke up the

next morning and realized it was all a dream.

That night he and his dad went to see the

real zombie world 2. Ben thought it was

awesome. He was excited to see the third one and

he hoped he didnโ€™t have that nightmare again.

The zombie world 3 movie came out fast but he

had the nightmare again but with zombie pigman

instead of zombies. He made a potion that had

milk, flour, and acid, and mixed it. The potion

just had to be sprinkled it on the zombie pigman

and it would turn into a zombie in seconds. Ben

did the same thing he did in his last nightmare

in this nightmare benโ€™s parents were vampires

but ben didnโ€™t know until they took their masks

that looked like their real faces. Ben was

horrified

The end!!!!!!!!!!!

My DaD is a monster

By: Nevaeh Crockett Jaffrey Grade School

4th grade

Hi. My name is Aqua Parks. I have black hair and blue eyes. My

sister, Angel, she has blonde hair and blue eyes. My dadโ€™s name is

Jeffrey and he has grayish brown hair and green eyes. Me and

Angel have 4 friends: Liza Star, Jade Strong, Pixie Touch, and

Matilda Valentine.

We all live with my dad because Liza, Jade, Pixie, and Matilda

were all abandoned, so me, Angel and my dad took them in. Me,

Angel and my friends love the outdoors. We always sit on the

bench outside either talking to each other or playing flappy bird

on our phones. Weโ€™re all the same age: 16.

In the back of the house we have a garden with cauliflower,

carrots, radishes, lettuce, tomato, corn, raspberries, blackberries,

blueberries, you name it, we got all the fruits and veggies. My

mom left my dad when I was 12. It was hard, and it still is, but my

mom needed a break.. I live with her all of the summer and so

does Angel and all of my friends. Every other day we live with my

dad. Iโ€™m alright with it, but itโ€™s hard for me and Angel, but we

deal with it. Liza has brown hair and brown eyes. Jade has red

hair and green eyes. Pixie has blue hair (she dyed her hair) and blue

eyes. Matilda, well she had dyed her hair green, uh, and she wears

black contacts. I donโ€™t know why, maybe itโ€™s because itโ€™s october?

I seriously have no clue why she did that with herself. Oh! Did you

want to know our favorite colors? Ok. So mine is coral, Angelโ€™s

favorite color is pink, Jadeโ€™s favorite color is crimson red, and

Matildaโ€™s favorite color is green (of course.) Well, today is

almost Halloween, itโ€™s October 28th. Well, that should definitely

be enough descriptions. Letโ€™s get back to what we should get back

to.

I was sleeping in my bed โ€˜till Angel came to wake me

up.โ€Aqua! Wake up! Dad made breakfast! He said when weโ€™re done

we can go and get Halloween costumes! Come on get up! Get up!โ€

Angel squealed with delight.โ€ Iโ€™m getting up! Iโ€™m getting up! Jeez,

Angel. Just, go downstairs and Iโ€™ll meet you there.โ€ I said. โ€œOkie

dokie!โ€ said Angel then she went downstairs. I got up, got dressed,

headed downstairs to meet Angel, then we ate the pancakes dad

made.

After a few minutes, Liza, Jade, Pixie and Matilda came

downstairs to eat. After they started eating, dad came through the

door.โ€Morninโ€™ ladies!โ€ Dad said with a big smile on his

face.โ€Morninโ€™ dad!โ€ Me and Angel said at the same time.โ€Once

youโ€™re done you six ladies can go out to the store and buy the

Halloween costumes ya want, and I left a $100 bill on the

counter so you can afford โ€˜em.โ€ Then we all finished our pancakes

and we got out of our chairs. I grabbed the $100 and then we all

headed out.โ€I think I might want to be pikachu!โ€ Exclaimed Pixie.

โ€œMe and Angel already know what weโ€™re gonna be.โ€ I said. Angel

then interrupted me.โ€œAquaโ€™s gonna be tails and Iโ€™m gonna be

sonic!โ€ Angel said with a grin.โ€Cool!โ€ said Liza.โ€I want to be

Harley Quinn.โ€ said Matilda.โ€I want to be poison ivy.โ€ said Jade.โ€I

want to be an indian.โ€ said Liza.โ€Well we got our costumes

figured out now…. Oh! Weโ€™re already here!โ€ said Angel.

Then we all headed in. We all got our costumes and I then

paid, Then we all went back home.โ€Finally, weโ€™re back!โ€ said

Matilda, tired. Then we all headed inside and dad was at the table

sitting on a stool doing paperwork. Then he turned around to

greet us.โ€Hello, ladies!โ€ dad said. โ€œHey dad!โ€ I said. โ€œHey girls, how

about you put your costumes in the closet down the hall, and Iโ€™ll

have a full picnic for you six. Okay?โ€ โ€œOkay!โ€ Angel said. We all

walked down the hall, and took turns putting our costumes in the

closet. Then when we came back, dad was NOT kidding. He was

standing by the table with six tuna fish sandwiches in sandwich

bags, a whole doritos party size bag, 6 diet Dr. Peppers, nachos

with melted cheese, a white and red checked picnic blanket, and a

picnic basket that looked like he had woven it himself just

now!โ€Dad-โ€ I started to say. โ€œHow did you do that so fast?โ€ Angel

interrupted AGAIN. โ€ I have my waysโ€ฆโ€ dad said with a weird voice.

โ€œWhat kind of ways?โ€ asked Jade. Dad stood silent. โ€œWhat kind of

ways?โ€ Jade asked again, sounding impatient. โ€œJust waysโ€ฆโ€ said dad.

โ€œGirls, you should go out and eat now itโ€™s almost 12:30, so here

Aqua, take this, go outside, okay?โ€ dad said, sounding like he had a

secret that he was keeping from us.

Dad then plopped the stuff in my hands, opened the door and

shoved us out the door. I then set the stuff on the ground as

neatly as I could, then I tripped on a stone. โ€œAqua!โ€ everyone

shouted. They all then helped me stand up. โ€œWait,โ€ I said. โ€œWhere is

Liza?โ€ Then we heard screaming. โ€œThat sounds like Liza!โ€ exclaimed

Pixie.โ€Uh Oh!โ€ said Jade.โ€I hear swallowing!!โ€ I yelled. Angel

looked inside the window.โ€Lizaโ€™s goneโ€ฆ Gone!โ€ said Angel, scared.

We all then went to the motel thatโ€™s in town. Thank God I still

have money. We headed in and locked the door.โ€Well, we lost

oneโ€ฆโ€ said Matilda.โ€What if we all disappear 1 by 1? Then there

would only be one of us left to try and get the others back.โ€ said

Jade in an ominous voice.โ€Stop it!โ€ I said and smacked Jade in the

arm.โ€Ow! You hit hard!โ€ complained Jade.โ€he he he heโ€ฆ Hah!โ€ Pixie

laughed.โ€Hey!โ€ said Jade, and punched Pixie in the arm.โ€That didnโ€™t

hurt, ya know.โ€ said Pixie. Jade made hand signals that I

understood. Then I punched Pixie in the arm.โ€Ow!โ€ exclaimed

Pixie.โ€That hurt!โ€

We all laughed and went to bed. The next morning we got up

and realized that Matilda was gone. We searched everywhere, and

she wasnโ€™t anywhere.โ€Jade was right!โ€ screamed Pixie. I broke

down crying on the floor.โ€Donโ€™t worry, sis. Weโ€™re gonna get them

back.โ€ Angel said, soothingly. We all then went to look again, and

before we knew it, it was dark out.โ€Iโ€™m scared.โ€ Pixie

whispered.โ€Oh donโ€™t be afraid of the dar- AAAAAHHHHH!โ€ Jade

shrieked.โ€Whereโ€™s Jade?โ€ asked Angel. We all turned around to see

Jade on the ground, not breathing.โ€Run!โ€ squealed Angel. We all

started to run back to the motel, then Pixie disappeared.โ€Keep

running! Angel whispered, scared.โ€AAAAHHHH!!!โ€ screamed

Angel.โ€Angel?โ€ I whispered.โ€Angel?!โ€ I shouted. No answer. I

turned around to see the monster that has become of my

dad.โ€AAAHH!โ€ I screamed. I started to run, and he chased me. Then I

tripped. He grabbed me by the legs.โ€No!โ€ I shrieked. He pulled me

into pitch black darkness. I then woke up. โ€œIt was just a dreamโ€ฆ

It was just a dream.โ€ I said, relieved. Angel came barging in my

room to the sound of me screaming.โ€Aqua? You okay? I heard you

screaming.โ€ Angel asked, puzzled.โ€Iโ€™m sorry, Angel. It was just a

bad dream.โ€ I said.

It turned out to just be a dream. Or was it?

The End! For Nowโ€ฆโ€ฆ

We forgot which way home was and ran the way of the store. When we were running i saw someone in black but he ran before I could see him clear. We grabbed marshmallows and marshmallows guns and reloaded the guns. I thought of the black guy,then Steve shaked me.

We ran out of the building and shot the marshmallows like crazy! We hit two skeletons but the rest got away. Steve said โ€œwe should grab the foodโ€. We got Chicken,Milk,Cheese,and Candy because it was halloween.

We both got to our houses safely. When I got home my parents were fast asleep. I put the food away and ran to my room closed the door and went to sleep.

Whoโ€™s Your Mummy?

By Kayla Bujnowski

One night Nicole and Peter were having a competition. You have to squirt the people who are playing and they would get a trophy. Nicole was 12 and Peter was 14. Their mother and father died. Her mother died because when she gave birth to me she died. My dad well,he got hit by a carโ€ฆWe had to live with are Granny Vee. We had a big mansion you could get lost in that place itโ€™s so humongous! It’s made out of white bricks. Peter shouted โ€œwe have to go buy some food for Granny Veeโ€. Peter has black hair today he was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans. I was wearing like always, sun glasses on my head. I wore a black shirt that the sleeves go in the middle of your arms so the top of your arm is showing and the bottom of your arm is not showing so you just see skin. then I wore a shirt tied up on my waist short jeans. Also wore a black necklace. We went to Market Basket to get our food. I bought some apples because I thought I could make apple crisp for Peter, Granny Vee and myself. Then I bought the almond chocolate because I love it. Peter grabbed the other supplies on the list. Then we walked home. We lived close to the market so it didnโ€™t take long. Peter ran so he beat me home

โ€œHaha I wonโ€ Peter bragged.

โ€œYOU RAN AND IT WAS NOT A COMPETITION!โ€ I shouted

โ€œHarshโ€ he muttered.

โ€œUgh knock it off you’re so immature sometimes. Anyways let’s just give this to herโ€ said Nicole

โ€œWait, are those ambulances? Peter asked, interrupting me. We rushed inside as quick as we could then we bumped into someone one

โ€œHave you seen Granny Vee?โ€ Peter said worriedly .

โ€œMy name is Jayโ€ replied Jay. โ€œshe went to the hospital they say she ate an apple that was rotten but it looked perfectly fine. But Nicole told her she was going to buy some apples and make apple crisp,

โ€œWell she will be fine I hope. I work for her and I hope she will be fineโ€ Jay said.

โ€œOkโ€ I said worriedly.

โ€ We have to go the hospitalโ€ Peter said shouting so bad

โ€œwait shouldnโ€™t we get flowers for her?โ€ I said

โ€œyeahโ€ Peter replied. I went to get her favorite flowers lilacs.

Then I found a note on her counter I went to go read it

You guys will go to your Aunt Lunaโ€™s house I will be fine and I will miss you very much I wish I could give you a hug but you guys were at Market Basket remember I love you guys very much.

โ€œWe have to go back I’m going to miss her really badly. Iโ€™m going to put the flowers next to her bed once she’s thereโ€ I said. We ran all the way to the hospital. I was exhausted when we got there. We went into the elevator. I looked on the note I put in A2. We got to her floor and went in her room. I put the vase of flowers on the counter then I kissed her on the cheek โ€œbye weโ€™ll miss youโ€. Then we went to the train station.

Once we got in the train it smelled like stinky socks. I sprayed some perfume. I looked on the clock and saw that it was 6:00 am โ€œPeter itโ€™s been 7 hoursโ€ Nicole said. We both moaned. Then the train stopped.

โ€œOh it must be our stopโ€ Peter announced. We walked to the front then walked out the door. Someone came in a carriage with horses pulling it.

โ€œHello you must be Nicole and Peterโ€ a woman said in a western accent.

โ€œAuntie?โ€ we replied. โ€œI didn’t know you were western.

โ€œPardon me. Hehe weโ€™ll sit in the carriage. I’ll bring you up the hill.

The house looked really nice but once we got in the house

โ€œOMG its egyptianโ€ said Peter. โ€

Is she egyptianโ€ asked Nicole. โ€ wow I never knew.โ€

Auntie led us to our room โ€œMy room was painted black. I had a guitar when I came in and I also had a soccer ball it was perfect!โ€ Nicole whispered to herself . We went into these vines and ran into a door. There was sign that read DO NOT ENTER

โ€œwowโ€ I said let’s go in. Then we saw coffins every where lined up.

โ€œAwesomeโ€ Peter shouted with excitement. Then I felt something touch my shoulder. I also heard chanting saying youโ€™re one of us now! Youโ€™re one of us now! It freaked me out to be honest. Then I saw Auntie. She locked me in a coffin and then I heard groaning & moaning. I realized it was mummys!

Luna, the auntie, kept me in here for a day. It smelled rotten I did not like the smell, โ€œughโ€ I moaned in a disgusting way โ€œit smells so badโ€ I said with my nose plugged.

Then it opened and I saw Peter with a key โ€œWE HAVE TO GET OUTโ€ I shouted. We ran into the men who I met when I came. They were guarding the door.

โ€œWhere are you going?โ€they said in a brave voice. Weโ€™re keeping you in here for 2 days and you will turn into a mummy like us haha they laughed. I saw Cleopatra on my back get off me I grabbed my water gun and squirt her I thought she would run away but she turned into a pile of dust. Then I pointed my water gun at men, I whispered to Peter their weakness must be water. Then I squirt them with the water LETโ€™S GET OUT! WAIT can we steal the stuff she had in are room? Sure I said because I love the guitar its so cool. We packed all our stuff ok I got all my stuff I said I do too Peter replied. Once we got down stair I was about to get out of here then the door disappeared then I squirt the water at Auntie Luna but she ran away then she went in circles youโ€™ll never get me then someone came in the door & are Auntie kept still & I squirt her. Who are

you we said โ€œi’m your real Auntieโ€ Luna wore a purple skirt and wore a shirt that was blue. I looked at the picture Granny Vee gave me she looks just like our real Auntie I believe her. Peter said โ€œNo she not are real auntieโ€. I gave him the picture to look at โ€œnvm (never mind) she’s are real Auntieโ€. Let’s get out of here now! This is a creepy place I said.

The reason I didn’t pick you up was because your stop was late and

she got you also caused it to be late so she knew what time to get you.

Then the train arrived โ€œlet’s get you on the trainโ€ Auntie said she also got on the train I think she wanted to come because she didn’t like living here or she wanted to have a better life somewhere else. I felt that she should come with us because it was a small town. It took us 4 hours are usual time to get here but I’m glad that I can finally get out of here and live with my Grandma again I saw that Peter was on his phone. I went over to him โ€œWhat are you doing broโ€ I said playing Minecraftโ€ he answered โ€œCool let me join youโ€ I went on my phone and found his server called Monster Ville I got a little scared because it reminded me of the mummy’s we saw.

Then I heard Granny get out of bed she came downstairs and smiled at us she came over and hugged us I felt her cold hands hug me. โ€œI miss you kiddos so muchโ€ Grandma said in a weak voice. โ€œWe missed you moreโ€ we said. โ€œWe also have a gift for you Auntie you can come outโ€ Peter said. She came through the door and she jogged to Granny Vee.

They hugged each other for awhile. โ€œI missed you Lunaโ€ Granny Vee said,

โ€œI missed you tooโ€ luna said. โ€œWell we have a extra room so you can live with usโ€ I announced. โ€œWould it be fine with you Granny Vee?โ€ Luna asked in a polite voice. Yes you may Granny said. Lunaโ€™s room was like a midnight room with a moon. Her room was a purple room her favorite color must be purple. I was fixing my room up I had a galaxy wallpaper I put my guitar down and my soccer ball. We had a awesome life together.

On Halloween night, it was dark and foggy. a girl named

Maple was in a graveyard walking to her sisterโ€™s grave. Her sister

was 16,she had shimmering blue eyes and flowy blonde hair. two

years ago she had died of cancer. Maple and her sister Annabelle

were the best of friends until she died. Now she was an only

child. she finally found her sisterโ€™s grave. She put a white

petunia ( pet- un- ya) flower right next to her grave stone. Then

she said a prayer. Next she walked home.

Her parents ( Elizabeth and Tom ) were already asleep.

Elizabeth had long, red hair and hazel eyes. Tom had black, short

hair. He also wore glasses, and had green eyes.

When Maple got home she got out a glass of milk because she

did not like water. She took out a leftover slice of pizza

from dinner she had missed. Next she had a couple scoops of

ice cream for a fun treat as dessert. After that she went to

bed.

She started to dream and this is what it wasโ€ฆ She was

back in the graveyard, kneeling next to Annabelleโ€™s grave.

But the white petunia she had put there earlier was red and

it wasnโ€™t natural it was dripping blood. She was scared. For

some reason she didnโ€™t remember the route home safe and

sound. She was trapped. More importantly she didnโ€™t know

what to do.

Maple heard a big loud creepy groan, but she knew it

wasnโ€™t just a groan. She knew someone was here, but where?

Maple knew whoever it was they were trying to tell her

something. Maple was more scared than ever in her life. She

looked around, no one was there. But then she looked behind

her and saw something horrifyingโ€ฆ her sister!!! Annabelle

had come alive! She was covered in dirt and smelled really

really bad. ( Maple was tempted to take her home and give

her a good shower. ) Maple was trying to smile and find out

how she had come alive. In an instant there was a big light.

it stayed shining on the two of them for a very long time

until maple looked up for a second a realized it was a big

spaceship! Maple finally figured out that the spaceship had

come for Annabelle and Then there right in front of her

eyes her sister Annabelle just disappeared!!! ( the spaceship

had taken her away! She still missed Annabelle badly. She

felt a little better after she had seen her but also very

scared something was going to happen to her. And then, in a

blink of an eye she found herself right in her bed lying

there. She opened her eyes and said,

โ€œI am so glad that was just a dream.โ€ But then she

thought to herself, โ€ What will happen when I die?.โ€

The Snake

One day there was a boy who hated snakes.

Whenever he saw one, he would get scared.

Then one day, he saw a really big snake. It was at

least thirty feet long and it was huge! He was so

scared he ran into his house and screamed.

Then he came out with a bat and he tried to hit it

but it wrapped around him.

It then brought him to its home. He didnโ€™t have a

clue where he was. But he fell asleep.

A couple of hours later, he woke up and the snake

wasnโ€™t there. He got up and he tried to find his way

out but he couldnโ€™t find his way out. It looked like

he was in a cave.

There were two tunnels so he took the one on the

left. He heard something and found it was the

snake.

The snake was looking for him, he saw more snakes!! But

but there were a lot of them. He tried to go

around them but there were too many so he had to

take the other tunnel.

He then ran back and took the other tunnel and

went out. The snake wasnโ€™t in the cave it was

probably out somewhere looking for people so he

ran out as fast as he could to get home and call

the cops .

So the city got evacuated. The snake was roaming

around the city for days. He locked his door,

boarded up the windows and went into his attic.

There was a tiny window in his attic so he could

look out it. He saw the snake and people were

running everywhere. It was crazy!

People were knocking on his front door so he went

downstairs and let them in. They all went into the

attic and the snake tried to get into his house.

But the snake couldnโ€™t. The police made a road

block so the snake couldnโ€™t get through.

Finally, the police killed the snake and everyone

was safe.

Please, no!โ€ But then the kid ran to the junkyard.

โ€œI am not going to the junk yard ,I am going to my parentsโ€™.โ€ said Bob

after the kid had left for the junk yard.

At the junkyard, it was not pretty. The little kid was getting eaten by a

The Programming Incident

Once upon a dark and stormy night, there was a girl. Her name was

Isabelle. Isabelle loved to program, she did it everyday. One day she was

programming a game with bugs that sucked your avatarโ€™s blood. So you

had to escape thirty levels. You have three lives and if you donโ€™t make it,

then you die!

Suddenly, there was a lighting storm. It hit her house and she fell deep

asleep from horror. When she woke up, she was so confused she

thought she was in a video game.

โ€ No, it canโ€™t be! My mind is tricking me!โ€ She looked up and saw a big

screen. She turned around and saw the blood sucking bugs and thenโ€ฆ

she ran faster than lightning. The bugs followed her. She ran and

screamed, โ€ Leave me alone! I canโ€™t die!โ€

Then she realized she was in her computer program. She said, โ€œThere

is always a loophole, her dad had taught her. โ€œBut until I can find it, I

need to hide quickly! Wait I made a cave in the program. Iโ€™ll find it and

hide in it,โ€ she said to herself.

She found the cave and started to doze off. All of a sudden, she woke

up with a bug on her arm. โ€ AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!โ€ she got up and

ran around banging it on the wall. Finally, she lost a life. Then she

remembered she added zombies and ghosts into the program.

BOOM!.. BANG!… SMASH!.. SCREAM!.. There it was, the zombie coming

closer and closer and CRASH! She lost another life and she was only on

level ten.

Then she found the black hole. She added, โ€œWait the loophole is the

black hole. I must go through there and it will bring me to the end.โ€ She

went through and won the game and got a gold medal! She fell asleep

that night with a smile on her face. Then she woke up in her nice comfy

bed. But when she looked outside, she saw a glowing lightโ€ฆโ€ฆ

The Ouija Board

It was dark and rainy night. My friend and I were playing the

Ouija board. Spinning around the board, the spirit haunted us for

years.

One night he raged out, flying down the stairs to the kitchen!

WOOSH! It is trying to kill us!!

We went into the car and drove 100mp trying to get to a safe

place. When we stopped the car, we found a hut.

So we went in the hut and found all these human skulls! We were

scared, nervous and confused. Then off on the side wall, we saw

all these swords.

There was this old person creeping down this little hallway saying,

โ€What are you doing in my hut?โ€

โ€œWe are being hunted by the Ouija board, โ€œthey answered.

โ€œThe Ouija board is fake,โ€ the old person said.

โ€œNo itโ€™s not.โ€

โ€œOk, letโ€™s go outside to see if the Ouija board is real, which itโ€™s

not.โ€ The person opened the door slowly and led them out.

So they went outside to see if the Ouija board was real. They saw

a floating knife with blood on it! They ran and ran and never

stopped running. When they stopped, there were hundreds of

killer clowns. They did not know what to do.

โ€œHey, before we die, can you tell us your name, old man?โ€

โ€œMy name? I donโ€™t know my name.โ€

โ€œWhat? Everybody knows their name.โ€ they said altogether.

The Ouija thencame back and was controlling us. Suddenly we

were in bed. My friend and I got up, opened the window, and

threw the board into the pond. The next morning, it was there in

back in the my bed wet.

โ€œNo!!!!!!! Itโ€™s in my bed.โ€

โ€œI have to stay calm. What if I put it in fire?โ€ I thought to

myself. Iโ€™m going to do it.

The next morning again it was back in my bed. My mom checked

on me I was really hurt and frightened.

โ€œWhat happened to you?โ€ she asked. I told her what had

happened. And so the story of the Ouija was told, at least the

way Jason remembers it. I wonder what really happened.

A Boy Is Scared Of Aliens

One day there was a boy named Jon and he was always afraid of

aliens.

A couple days later, he saw a big glowing light in the sky. He

thought it was a flying saucer but he was not sure. For a week he

stayed inside, just in case. But on Monday, because it was the

first day of school, he had to go out. He was still afraid.

When he went in class he saw the light, again. He got goose

bumps. At lunchtime, he imagined every thing was an alienโ€ฆ dun,

dun, dun.

The next day he had a dream about a flying saucer full of aliens

who ended up sucking him up. And the aliens ate him.

The next day he watched people walk around in costumesโ€ฆ itโ€™s

Halloween already!!!!!!! But he was actually imagining that they

were dressed up in costumes.

Now this is real life, the glowing light sucked him up and the

The Ouija Board

I was ready to watch TV right as I heard a knock on my door. It

was the middle of the night so I was confused. I opened the door

and a box was on the front step. I brought it inside. I opened it

slowly and there was a board with letters on it. Also it had some

weird thing with a magnifying glass.

It said on the Ouija board, โ€œPlace the glass on the board and spin

it to summon a spirit.โ€ I was so nervous about doing this but I was

like Curious George and spun the glass anyways. To my surprise, it

started moving. The glass would glide and then stop on certain

letters. It moved to M A J A. I said, โ€ Is your name Maja?โ€ It

then moved to, โ€œYes.โ€

I closed the board and threw it in the trash. I went off to bed.

Right when I was about to fall asleep ,the lights turned on and

off!! But I still fell asleep. Then I woke up again at 12:31 and my

door was open.

I got up and looked around my house and right in my living room

was the Ouija board all set up. I was pretty confused and scared.

But I sat down and started playing the game. I said, โ€œWhat is

your name? It moved to Z O Z O. I said, โ€œIs your name Zozo?โ€ It

moved to โ€œYes.โ€

I said, โ€œAre you good or bad?โ€ It moved to B A D.

I whimpered, โ€ Are you mad at me?โ€ It moved to โ€œNo.โ€ I went

back to bed and the next thing I knew , Iโ€™m being dragged by

nothing. I come to a sudden stop. I was being slammed at a wall.

Then my eyes closed and never openedโ€ฆ again.

Scary Story

One night I was in my bed, and it felt weird like something was

watching me. I got out of my bed. I went downstairs and I turned

on the lights and sat on the couch. Then I heard something like a

voice. I hid under my couch.

I saw a person in my house with a black mask and a wolf. And then

he said, โ€œCome outโ€™โ€™ I said nothing as he came walking near where

I was hiding. He looked behind the couch. He saw me. He had

scars all over his face. I started running.

He cornered me and all there was, was a window near me. I

opened it and jumped out. I climbed a tree near the house. He

was climbing up too. I did not know what to do. The next thing I

knew I was fallingโ€ฆfalling.

Suddenly, somehow, I was in the woods in a tent. He thought I

was alive so I played died. He dragged me outside. I ran to the

river. I jumped in the river and swam awhile down the river. I

think I must have drowned because people still talk about the

person found in the river and the man dressed in black who comes

back every Halloween at night.

The Shadow With No Body

It was a dark and stormy night. I was about to go to bed when I heard a loud

THUNK!

I leaped out of bed and rushed to the window. I saw something that ran by so

fast it was like it disappeared into nothing.

So I ran downstairs and I put on my shoes and ran out. I ran outside to see what

was going on.

I saw something moving in the woods. It was moving so fast but then it saw me. I

ran as fast as possible and I made it back inside the house.

I ran back into my room and I grabbed my shotgun and earphones and a helmet

and went back outside.

The thing was right in front of me. It was a shadow with no body. My blood

turned to ice. I shot the shadow with my gun and it went right through it so I ran!

It was too close so I got on my bike and pedaled away.

It knew where I was going. I dropped my bike on the side of the road and ran to

the woods.

I ran as fast as I could. It wasnโ€™t chasing me when I looked behind me but when I

looked again, it was right in front of me! Two days later somebody saw my path in

the woods and they found me dead!

The Monster Ghost

ย 

ย 

ย 

There was a ghost and the ghost was turning the lights off and on. I was scared

so I went into my closet but my mom was coming.

โ€œWhat is all the racket up here?โ€my mom asked. โ€œAhah!!!! What happened?โ€

โ€œI do not know but there is a monster behind you sucking your blood.โ€ I was

screaming this to my mom.

โ€œNo there is not!โ€

โ€œLook behind you!โ€ I yelled again. And she looked and she suddenly turned into

a monster. โ€œWhat just happened?โ€ I thought.

So now there were two monsters in the house. Time to call my dad to see if he

could help. โ€œDad, come quick. I need you!โ€

Then it is me and dad against two monsters. I said, โ€œDad, dodge the Monster

quick!โ€

He answered, โ€œI will.โ€ Phew!

We then thought we saw some zombies coming from all over the place. What in

the world is happening? Which monster is my mom? What is going to happen to

me and my dad. Maybe you will have to wait till the next chapter to find out.

very strange the house turns into a monster! They

were so scared that they might get eaten by the old

brown house. But when they were walk the tongue

Abby but Julie grabbed Abby by the hand and pulled!!!!!!

Luckily the old house let loose of Abby. They were so

scared they ran home screaming because they were

terrified.

The next day they went back to the house. They

found something they never knew existed but when it

was Halloween their neighbor told them who she was.

The neighbor helped explode the house by handing Julie

a dynamite and Abby was fighting the house with a

machine and Julie went at the end of a crane and

threw the dynamite right at the heart and the house

blew up. It was never heard from again.

WHICH WAY TO WHERE WOLF WOODS?

It was Halloween night and you could hear all of the excitement in the air

coming from the little children, but Harley Sue was never allowed to go Trick-or-

treating.She stared at all of the other kids laughing, eating candy, and having fun.

She kept staring at them, then all of the sudden a light bulb popped into her head โ€œI

got itโ€ Harley Sue screeched with excitement โ€œIโ€™m going to go on the trail through

where wolf woods then right before you turn onto the Moonlight City trail Iโ€™ll go

off the trail and end up on Grave St where all the good candy is and after I do that

Iโ€™ll just go back the way I came and be home by 5:30 p.m. So after she went over

her plan she ran into her room and jumped out the window. She stared at Where

Wolf Woods thinking about what would happen if her plan were to go wrong, she

tried to stop thinking about it but she couldn’t. Then Harley Sue slowly walked into

the woods. She heard her mom calling her name but instead of listening Harley Sue

ran faster and faster into the woods. She ran until she saw something black running

through the trees in front of her. She stopped in her tracks and began to feel

terrified and worried, she then realised she had made a wrong turn.She began to

see more and more of these weird creatures and they came closer to her by the

second. Harley Sueโ€™s mind went blank, everything started to look blurry and then

she heard a tiny little voice whispering her name โ€œHarleyโ€ she recognised the voice

but she had no time to think about it. Then she ran faster than she ever has,she

could see the way out of โ€œWhere Wolf Woodsโ€ she felt relieved and happy this

would soon be over until she noticed the graveyard โ€œOh no she thought graveyards

always mean zombies!โ€ she kept running shaking a lot, โ€œZOMBIEโ€ she hollered.

There were zombies everywhere, one of them grabbed her foot and she tripped.

Harley Sue struggled feeling powerless and exhausted she tried and tried to pull the

zombieโ€™s hand away from her leg, and she something let go of her, she knew she

could run. She heard the voice again calling her, telling her to follow it. She did

and the voice brought her home. Her parents were standing on their driveway.

Harley Sue ran to her parents and hugged them.

โ€œHoney where were you? Harley Sueโ€™s mother asked, โ€œYour father and I were

worried sickโ€ โ€œYou’re probably angry and frustrated with meโ€ Harley Sue

Admitted โ€œHoney no, Iโ€™m just happy you’re okay and not hurtโ€ Harley Sueโ€™s dad

exclaimed.From that day forward Harley Sue never saw zombies, heard voices,

went to Where Wolf Woods or saw creatures in the shadows ever again.

The Haunted Basement

It all started out so normal that day.

But then I heard it. The sound that changed

everything. So in the morning I just wake up &

eat my cereal just like usual. But then I hear it,

the noise in the basement. I run out of my

house to my friend Jimmyโ€™s house and when I

tell him about what I heard, we both freak out

and run out of the house screaming. Jimmy

thinks that it was just a rat but I know what I

heard. So you see my family has a history of

finding ghosts somewhereโ€ฆ as far as I know,

the ghosts have all been in our basements.

Our basements which in this case is bad.

When I was ten I thought it was cool, but not

anymore. Now itโ€™s just plain old creepy. That

day was probably the worst day of my life.

Actually, definitely the worst day of my life.

But thatโ€™s not all of the story. Oh you just

wait. So when we finally calm down, we go

warn my neighbors about the ghost but since

itโ€™s so close to Halloween they just think itโ€™s a

silly old prank. We warned them about three

times but they still went into my house. After

a little more than five minutes, Jimmy and I

got worried. But we werenโ€™t going in there. No

sir. I even went down to the police station to

tell them what I heard and about my

neighbors disappearing, but the chief said to

give it a day. When I realize that Jimmy lives

like two houses away from me I go tell him we

have to stay at a hotel. He says โ€œoh no we

arenโ€™t, the hotels around here are way too

expensive.โ€ I realize that heโ€™s right about that

but then I think that we should check if the

neighbors are home. When we arrive back

home they say all they saw was a rat in my

basement and that clearly we were not certain

of it being a ghost. But if it was just a rat then

why was it so loud??

Once in a faraway land, there was a little girl, she lived in a little cottage, near a big haunted woods. She was always excited to hear about her Grandma, but there was a hunted woods and her mom didnโ€™t want her going. One night she snuck out of the house. Then she got afraid and she had to go back inside to pack up a lot of things and to get as many bags as she could find, all her clothes, all her boots, everything she would need. She went outside, she found her flashlight, she turned it on and she looked all around and she saw glowing red eyes that were very spooky to her. She yelled to Grandma, โ€œGrandma, Grandma!โ€ She took a closer step to the woods, she smelled all the monster air in the woods and she walked up to a tree and climbed it and she saw Grandmas roof and long, long chimney and she yelled once again, โ€œGrandma, Grandma can you hear me?โ€ The Grandma responds back and she says, โ€œDonโ€™t go closer to the woods or youโ€™ll get eaten.โ€ Grandma said also that her son broke an arm going through the woods, going hunting for coyotes and he had to have surgery. They heard a, โ€œroar, roar, roar,โ€ and Grandma said, โ€œrun back home as fast as you can so you donโ€™t get eaten.โ€ She climbed out the tree and ran as fast as she can and ran all the way home. She got back in bed and soon mom woke her up and she was really, really tired. She also whispered in her mind to her Grandma that she really loved her and she also said bye. She walked down the stairs, climbed up the same tree and her grandma was out watering the garden and she yelled to her grandma that time, โ€œIโ€™ll see you soon when I am older and I will see you and kiss you all I want and I will give you a hug and we will snuggle with each other and we will have the best times and we will have movie nights. She climbed down and she laughed at the funny picture she had of her Grandma being a baby, naked. The End.
