The Haunted House
by Devon Currah
There once lived two detectives named Lucy and Holly. They
were very good detectives, but now they had a very difficult mystery to
solve - "The Haunted House Mystery".
Their problem was to find out why there are spooky things
in the haunted house. They knew that haunted houses were supposed to be
spooky, but they wanted to know why a nice skeleton was in the haunted
house.
Lucy and Holly asked their mother for permission to go to
the haunted house. When they got there, the nice skeleton they called
Herman ran up to them. They asked him how he got to be a nice skeleton,
and he told us he just wanted to be different from the others.
"Case closed," Lucy said. From then on, they
visited the skeletons everyday and they all became nice, like Herman.
Gravedigger
by David MacArthur
One dark and stormy night, Timmy, a little boy heard a
noise coming from his window. Outside his window, there was a graveyard.
He looked out and saw it was a gravedigger. He ran to his mom's bedroom,
and said, "There's a gravedigger in the graveyard."
They ran to his room and saw that the gravedigger was
climbing up the wall of the house. They were scared! The gravedigger had
blood all over his shirt. He was getting closer. Finally, he reached the
window. They were panicking. He had bigger teeth than Dracula. And they
looked sharp. He broke the glass from the window and climbed in and said,
"Do you have a cookie?"
The Trap
by David Wong
"Hey, wake up," said Carla.
"There is a present for us at the front door,"
said Mom.
"And it is right here," said Dad. I unwrapped
the wrapper and opened it. Out jumped a metal dog. It was so cute and
Carla and I both wanted it. It was happy to be a part of this family.
"Halloween is tomorrow. Could we go camping?" we
said at the same time.
"Not on Halloween, but the next day," said Mom.
"Alone," we said.
"Of course," said Dad.
After Halloween, we went to the Forest of Goods. My sister
and I wanted to explore first. We went into the forest, but stepped into a
hole and fell through. They went into a path with their metal dog,
Bow-Wow. A knight popped out of nowhere and said, "Get lost or
battle." They had nowhere to go, so they wanted to battle. The
Bow-Wow ate the knight with a gulp.
They kept on going until some blobs attacked them. They
did not get injured or hurt.
"Go, Bow-Wow," I said. Bow-Wow knocked them off
the cliff. They saw a tunnel and ran to it. The cyclops had walked in
there and rested for awhile. It was sleepwalking and fell off the cliff
too. In the tunnel, witches' had a party and behind Carla the Cyclops
climbed back up. John had a plan . They got ready for the plan and the
Cyclops blew up into pieces. The witches noticed. They chased them up to
the wizard's home. The witches were scared of wizards. They tried to run,
but it was too late. The wizard turned the witches into stone.
Then they used a spell and it took them back home.
Sponge
by David Manuntag
About three years ago, I was in the kitchen washing the
dishes. I had always been saying to my mom for the past three months to
replace the sponge, but they never wanted to. I had been begging them, but
they still didn't want to. When I was washing the dishes, the sponge
started making weird noises. Then it started to giggle in my hand. Then I
was so scared that I dropped the sponge into the sink. The sponge started
to grown legs and arms and before you knew it was growing eyes and a
mouth. After about 5 minutes, it started to walk out of the sink.
But it couldn't get out because it was too slippery. That
it started to talk, "Why can't I get out of this type of cube?"
Then out of nowhere, he started to grow a tie, pants and leather
shoes. He looked really funny so I went to put him in a cage. While I was
carrying him to a cage, he tried to resist. But I was stronger than him.
When he got into the cage, he tried to escape. He tried
everything even climbing the metal bars but then he got so tired. He
turned into a regular sponge.
Witch
Versus Warlock
By
Darren Young
At
a convention for wizards, witches and warlocks, there was a contest to see
who was the most powerful, and who had more strategies than the others.
Whoever won the contest would get more powers than ever and be more
knowledgeable than anyone for one day and one night.
Now
there was a little boy who was 206 years old, and was able to just enter
by one year. The little
boy’s name was Merlin, named after the great wizard himself who started
the contest in the first place. After
Merlin put in his application to enter, he got home and started practicing
on his potions. He made sure
that he got them right by trying them out on a sheep and turned it into a
half dragon-half butterfly sheep with tentacles as feet.
Merlin got into bed early because the contest was going to start
first thing in the morning.
The
next morning, Merlin hopped out of bed grabbed all the pouches that had
his magic potions, and rushed to the contest just in time.
He was first up to fight against a warlock his age.
The warlock started off with a blast of lightening but Merlin
stopped it with a shield and turns the warlock into a firefly before he
could block it.
The
next contestants were a witch and a wizard, and the wizard was so powerful
that it only one spell and it was over.
The witch was a toad in a flash and it was all over. It was an hour before Merlin fought again and he won all of
his fights by block and attack but nobody saw that except the warlock that
fought him in the beginning.
After
all the preliminary rounds, it came down to the final fight between Merlin
and the other powerful wizard. While
there was a break the two wizards made more potions for the big battle.
As Merlin was about to finish with his potions, the other wizard
came up to him, to say good luck and he told him his name for no reason at
all and then looked at the bets for who is going to win.
The bell sounded for everyone to get back to their seats and the
two finalists to come back to the ring.
The referee said to start and that was what they did.
They both jumped back and one unleashed a fireball and one
unleashed a lightening bolt and they kept at it for some time.
Merlin got a shield and dodged the attack and turned into a dragon
to shoot an amazing amount of magic fire out of its mouth, and destroyed
the shield he had up and turned the other wizard into a rabbit.
After
he turned back to normal, Merlin took the prize and wrote all he learned
from the power into seven books and put them in a bag and gave the prize
power to his competitor, smiled and took off with the books.
The
Scariest Night in My Whole Life
By
Drew Miller
One
gloomy, foggy Halloween night Drew was in his room reading scary Halloween
stories. He was so excited. It was October 31st and Drew was
going trick-or-treating. Nick and Keaton were going with him. Drew was
going to be a zombie, Keaton was dressing as a goblin and Nick was going
to be a vampire.
After
Drew was done reading, it was dinnertime. When dinner was over, he put his
costume on and went to Nick’s house. After Nick put his costume on, the
two boys went to Keaton’s house. Keaton was ready to go. They all looked
very scary and happily left to go trick-or-treating. First they went in
their neighborhood. When they were done, they had tons of candy. Then they
saw this dark, gloomy house. It was right by the cemetery. They all wanted
to go in but then they remembered that their moms had said that they
couldn’t go there. Next, Nick said, “Who cares, they won’t know!”
Keaton
and Drew reluctantly agreed to go. They tentatively went up to the dark
and creepy house. When they were on the steps they heard a strange noise.
They thought it was the stairs creaking so they kept going. They yelled,
“Trick-or-treat”! A little, old pruney lady opened the door. Drew and
Keaton were scared! They asked Nick if they could leave now but there was
no answer. They turned around and they didn’t see anyone. Nick was gone!
When they turned back the lady was gone too!
The
door was still open so they both went inside to look for Nick. The house
was dark, no light, just pitch black. When they turned left they fell down
through a trap door. The two boys thought they would get hurt but they
landed right on a pile of clothes. Drew and Keaton didn’t know where
they were but then Drew found a door. They shivered as they opened the
door.
When
they went through the door they saw a light. The boys were really
frightened. Tingles traveled up and down their spine. Their teeth
chattered. They both walked slowly up the hall. When they went through
another door and into the light they saw Nick and Ms. Morrissette, their
teacher. Ms. Morrissette admitted that she was the witch! They all screamed,
“Hurray,” and Ms. Morrissette gave them some candy. The boys said
thank you and gave her a warm hug. Then they left and went home. It was a
spooky, scary, fun Halloween night!!!
