Scary Story:
One cold, eerie night. I was walking along the sidewalks, leaves flying gracefully in the wind. I had one last house to trick-or-treat at. It was cold and I was tired. My legs were dragging along as I was walking, walking up the path to the last house. As usual, I rang the doorbell. The house was huge, and spooky. Sort of like a haunted house. At last, the door finally sprang open. As I was about to say “trick-or-treat.” I noticed something, that no one was there! I walked in, just to grab a few candies from the bowl, when the door shut. I tried to open it, but it was locked!

It was cold in here, probably colder than outside. I panicked grabbed a small candy from the bowl and went to look for the back or side door. The house was huge! I got lost and walked for a long time searching for a door. I know someone must be home maybe…maybe they are sick and cant answer the door. Or they’re asleep! If I was smart I would probably go upstairs to the room and find the person. But of course I was terrified. What if they don’t like kids? What would they do? I looked at the stairs, took one step up the dark, creaking old staircase then ran back down.  The stairs did not look stable. So, I continued my search for a door to get out.

The owner of this mansion seemed to have liked Halloween. There were cobwebs, jack-o-lanterns and skeletons. I shivered. I was cold, tired and hungry. I took a seat down on a chair and ate some of my candy. I wiped off the mess and walked around again. I was walking down a long hallway. There was a couple photos. One was of a young girl. Her name was Victoria, she seems important. Maybe she was here? Playing these pranks on me. But she couldn’t of have. It says here she died…I felt cold. Maybe Victoria is here? Is she a ghost?!

Now, I was really scared! I ran found the door and tried to open it. Of course! It was still locked. Victoria won’t give up! I sat down. I couldn’t believe my eyes! Victoria, the very same in the old photograph, looked at me with tears in her eyes. I stood up. “V-Victoria, could you let me out of here?” She looked at me and disappeared. I ran to the door and saw an old piece of parchment taped to it.

Dear Megan,

I’m sorry I have scared you. I was just so sad not to have anyone to spend Halloween with. I wish I was like you…alive and happy. You are probably really tired from this scary place! I wanted to have company. I only come out on Halloween. So at 12:00 I will disappear once again for another year. The door is unlocked now. I hope I haven’t caused you too much trouble.

Sincerely,

Victoria

I reached for the door handle. Gave a sigh of relief and left. It was truly a great adventure. I’ll come back next year! And give Victoria a gift,  how about candy?! She misses out on the real Halloween!

The End!

I hope you liked my little story! Did it scare you?

The New Girl

“Laila(Ly-laa), in the car! We’re leaving!”

I sighed, tear rolling down my cheeks for the fourth time. I took one last look at my empty room, wiped off the tears and walked outside to the car. I sat down in the car seat looking out of the window for one last look at my house as we drove off. My sister looked excitedly at me. “Hey sissy! This is gonna be so fun, we’re finally moving. I’ll sure miss this city. We are moving all the way to the U.S, in New York! I’ll miss my friends  and -” she looked at me. “Natalie” I said, gritting my teeth “can’t you be quiet for once?” She looked at me sadly, and gave a small nod.

“Come on guys, out! Look at our new house. Isn’t it prey?” mom tried cheering us up. I looked up at the three-story house. The house was made of brown bricks. The outsides of the windows were white, and so was the door. The garden was truly beautiful. I tried not to look to happy. “I’ll go get groceries.” dad said gruffly as he went back to the car and drove out. We walked into the house. I gave a gasp of surprise. The house looked amazing! Natalie seemed to think that too, and said fairly loudly “Ooh! Nice!” she ran up the stairs, yelling as she ran “I call the best bedroom!!” I smiled a bit, for the first time in decades and followed her.
