It was a dark and stormy night. It was the night before Halloween. And there were spooky noises in the wind. Leaves were blowing like crazy. There were 8 people in a little house. 7 vanished in mid air. Suddenly the glass shattered, the trees shook, and the last kid vanished. 10 years later the house was empty because the house was haunted.

It was a dark and stormy night… “BOO” Sofia jumped, “Ha-ha ha I scared you” Yelled Sofia’s best friend Karen. This is what they looked like; Sofia had rose red hair and was wearing a pink T-shirt with a red-ish pink-ish rose splat in the middle. Where as Karen had pitch- black hair and a T-shirt with a skull on it and jeans that had (from Sofia’s point of view) thousands of holes in them. (anyways on with the story.)”I scared you I scared you” sang Karen happily. “Did not” said Sofia angrily “Did t-“said Karen the reason she had broken off was because she had spotted a ghostly figure “What, are you mad at me? Fine. Well I m mad you! So th-!” Sofia stopped suddenly because she to had seen the ghostly figure! A Ghost!! “Eeeeek!” they both screamed in terror!! Then the “Dementor” took off its hood revealing… Will!!!! “HAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH” She laughed! You should have seen the looks on your faces! You were terrified! HAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHA” Will just couldn’t contain her laughter! “GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR” Sofia and Karen both made furious moves toward Will but an unseen figure got there first! SMACK! Across the face the figure hit her! “That’s for scaring me and your best friends! So there!” The figure announced! “Jaimi?” THE END

A Mystery

It was a dark and stormy night and it was a scary noise but it was just pumpkin. It was a very nice pumpkin. He was scared too. He wanted help because he could not turn on the light. He said, “I am sorry I was making a lot of noise, I was just trying to turn on a light and I bumped into something and I got very scared because I could not see anything and I am not sure how I got here.” And that is the end of my story.

It was a dark and a stormy night when there was a big thump and everyone was sleeping! I woke up! I was really scared. I looked out the window, I saw nothing! Then I got in some clothes. I turned off the alarm without my parents knowing. Then I grabbed a lamp. Then I snuck out the door. I was walking around outside to see what the thump was. Then I saw the big Susan.

THE END

It was a dark and stormy night when a boy named Jim always walked in the cemetery because he didn’t believe in zombies but he saw something move. It was a zombie. They all ate, then he was a zombie too.

It was a dark and stormy night… and my dad was making a fire when all of a sudden the TV went on. The fire place was three feet away from the TV. And then one minute later the TV went off. And my dad went to the TV and when he was looking at the TV he heard a ghost. And I was in my bed hearing what was happening. So I got out of bed and went to the TV. And saw my dad talking to a ghost. And asked my dad what he is doing with a ghost. And he said the ghost’s name is Bob. And Bob said “I love candy” and I said “hi” and Bob said to my dad I’m hungry. And my dad got Bob a snack and Bob was happy. The End

Halloween

It was a dark and stormy night... It was the night before Halloween. There were kids egging houses and cars. They had fun doing that. They came to an old house. They went in but there was no one there. They were alone and they heard a noise! It was coming from the bed room. They walked closer and closer and they opened the door! There was a goblin! The goblin was eating a woman! Ahh they ran out the door and down the street. The goblin was chasing after them! The kids had to stop to catch there breath. That just gave the goblin more time to catch up. The goblin found the kids and he ate them. The End

One Halloween Night

by Shiari
It was a dark and stormy night when Sarah heard her mom call her. "Sarah I'm going to the store. Dinner is in the oven when you want it. I'll be back next week. Bye, see you then." Great there goes my only chance of getting away from this dump. Sarah watched her mom disappear around the corner. The house was ninety years old. Some say it was haunted. Sarah didn't believe in the legends. she thought it was nonsense. One night when Sarah was eating dinner she heard a voice. It was saying her name, it sounded like this. "Sarahhhhhh. Sarahhhhhhh." "Yes?" "Sarahhhhhhh." Sarah thought it was one of her friends playing a joke. "Stop it Franny." "Come here." Sarah moved closer and closer then "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" TO BE CONTINUED
