The Haunted House by Brooke Burke (aged 8)

              

It was a dark and spooky night on October 31. Everybody was trick-or-treating except for one house in a creepy forest. Three girls named Brooke, Sarah and Paige who were trick-or-treating came to the haunted house and Paige said, “ Wow that house looks creepy!” and Brooke said, “ Let’s go check it out.” But Sarah said, I don’t think that is a good idea.” Brooke went in anyway, so the girls followed her. “Wow,” said Brooke, |It’s spooky in here.”  There were smashed windows and broken walls, but then they heard an alarming, spooky, dreadful sound. “What was that?” said Paige. “I don’t know said Brooke, “but it sounded like it came from upstairs.” So they went upstairs and were about to go into a dark room when they heard a loud cackle. They then saw a weird shadow. They went inside the dark room and saw a witch with a pointy hat, a pointy nose. The witch said in her squeaky voice,” Who goes there?” Then Brooke said, “This is Paige and Sarah and my name is Brooke.” “Well,” said the witch ,”You are not allowed to come in here.”  The witch then took out her spell book and turned Sarah into a Jack-o-Lantern, so Brooke Sarah and Paige zoomed out of the room and were about to go into another room when thaey came face to face with a ghost. “Wait,” said the ghost , “I am friendly.” “You are?”, Said Paige. “Yes, what are you guys doing here?” said the ghost. “Well we are looking for something to turn Sarah back .An evil witch changed her into a Jack-O-Lantern.”

“Well to find something to Sarh back, You have to go to Spookyland.” said the ghost.

“How do you get there?” said Brooke.

“To get there, you have to go on a creepy train.” said the Ghost. The ghost then called out a loud whistle, and then they heard the train. They went out to the backyard.

“The train driver is a skeleton,” said Sarah.

“Yes,” said the ghost. Then the ghost picked up the girls and placed them on the train. The train was filled with ghosts, bats and zombies. The train took off with a “whoosh.” It flew up in the sky. After a few minutes the train landed and everyone got off. There was a spooky house and Brooke, Sarah and Paige went in. When they got in, there were a lot of goblins, and in a big chair was a goblin with a staff. “Maybe he can help Sarah,” said Brooke. So they went to the goblin king and asked if he could turn Sarah back and he said, “Yes.’ So he picked up his staff wielded it then he pointed it at Sarah. Then she turned back to normal. They went back on the train and fell asleep because it was such a long night. Then they got off the train when it stopped. They went home and no one heard or saw the haunted house again.
