  1. Halloween Night 2017, Jonny was out trick or treating. Johnny's friend Jimmy had a bad feeling about going to this house. But Jonny went anyway. When he walked up the porch was screaming, and he rang the doorbell. When the old lady opened the door and Johnny and JIm said “Trick or Treat”. The lady said come inside so I can get the candy. She slammed the door shut and kidnapped them. The lady threw them in the basement and locked the door. The kids screamed as loud as a wolf. No body heard them. Then 20 minutes later she opened the door and threw two more kids down there. They were all scared. When they heard the lady laugh ike a which they curled into a ball like an armadillo. All four kids talked and made a plan. There plan was to break down the door and run out of the house. Johnny And JIm tried to break the door down but they couldn't, she must of really secured that door. So they had to make a new plan. There other plan was to sneak out window. They looked in every room and there was no window. Then they saw a small door that had a lock on it. Johnny was feeling good about this. They found some tweezers and cut the lock off. They opened the door and it lead outside. So they went up to the lady's door and knocked. The kids knocked and started laughing. The lady was so confused how they got out. Then the kids ran from her. They ran like there was no tomorrow. The wind was whistling as they ran. As she thought about what she did she thought she was a criminal. The kids kept going trick or treating until 11:00 pm. They got more candy than a candy factory. When the kids got home they dumped out all of their candy and ate half of it. When the kids woke up they were all sick. But they decided to eat the rest of their candy. They were sick for weeks.

  2. It was a stormy night and I was having a sleepover with a friend. We decided that since halloween was only a week away we would tell scary stories and watch scary clips. We told the same old ghost stories but then we came upon something. We found a story online about a man who killed his whole family. The rumor goes he had a break down and shot the whole family then himself. The house was ironically a mile away from my house. There was a link under the story it was in all red. It stated ‘’ If you watch you will have only one week to survive’’, We decided to watch it thinking it was a stupid bluff. We went to sleep and both had the same dream. It was about dying. We each got startled but thought it was silly. I went back to my house and did more research. While i was looking I felt something no someone behind me. Then i was hit in the head with a book.It flew out of nowhere, I thought it was my little sister but it wasn’t. It just flew out of nowhere.
    As the week went on strange things have happened to me and my friend so I decided we should go to the house to try to find the reason this was happening. We went there and it was a mess. There was blood smear everywhere. It was like they took the bodies and called it a day. They even left the gun there. I was in pure shock. It was a horrifying sight. I had to knock out of it though and figure out how to save us. I looked around for answers and then i heard a loud boom and scream. I ran back and it was my friend. She was shot but it was impossible there was no one else there. I wanted to cry but couldn’t. I turned around to try to find out what was going on and ‘’BOOM’’ i was dead…
    I wasn’t really dead i was just dreaming. I woke up like i was gasping for air. My friend jumped like a spider when i woke up and asked me if i was ok. I answered yes with a smile and went along with my day.

  3. The wind blew as if there was a tornado down the road. I was home alone, because my parents had to go to a halloween party at my dad's office. As i was going thru the house and shutting all the windows, I heard noises coming thru the house. At first I thought it was just because of the wind but then it continued to make the same noise. I decided to go to my room and go to bed as I went down the hallway the darkness gave off an ominous feeling like something was lurking around. I started to run at this point i entered my room and slammed the door. I tried to fall asleep , but every time I got close to falling asleep, some sort of noise kept me from doing so. It was around midnight when my parents walked in the house, that let some stress off of me, to know that my parents were home. Around five mins later I finally fell asleep.

    The next morning my dad was already gone for work and my mom was cooking me breakfast. I left the house, I started to remember what happened like around a month ago some guy kidnapped his family and then well you know something happened that will not be stated, because he started to here things in the house like, creek's upstairs in the floorboards like someone was home. Then he started to hear voices in his head. I haven't heard voices yet, but i have the whole floorboard stuff like someone is walking around. And my mom said, that at night my dad has started to talk in his sleep and act really weird at night depending on what room he is in. I started to do research on the house, and found out nothing, due to the storm, the WiFi would not work. So I had to wait for the WiFi work, so i decided to go see what my mom was up to. When I found her she was crying on the floor( just to note my dad is usually at work when i wake up ) what's wrong mom i asked, she stated that my dad never came home last night or and she just got a call from the sheriff's office that they found his car smashed into pieces, but no body, so they were gonna keep looking and see if he ejected from the car. But there were no smashed windshield or anything. So she just said please find him and then hung up. Then i figured that i should leave her alone and then suddenly just then in that exact moment the WiFi came back on.and I looked on the news website to see about a crash and if there was one key word was, they would have reported it and posted it on there website already and found nothing so I started to get worried and panic.

    I showed my mom and then she started to get suspicious. THen that night we were sitting on the couch trying to figure out what was going on then we heard creeks he towards the power box upstairs but the power didn't go out some man was all deformed and chased us out of the house we managed to get away from him but when we went back we had to kill him. Maybe you're confused I don't know if you remember when i said that they never found my dad so ya we don't know who we killed because when we went to call the cops he was gone maybe the darkness really was watching all along.

  4. It was Halloween night, it was about 10:00pm. It was pitch black outside. We had heard on the new in the morning of that day that there was a killer in a dark costume with a white mask as bright as the moon, around the neighborhood. Most people didn't think anything of it, maybe it was a mistake, or just a Halloween scare. We had left my house at 10:07 pm to go trick or treating. It was me and my brother, we also brought a few friends each. We had all agreed that we should go to the best houses, that ones that give you the king size candy bars. On our way to the first couple of houses we had the feeling that we were being watched or followed.
    It turns out that there was someone following us it was 10:54 close to an hour in. The whole time we had a bad feeling. I remembered the news story about the killer in the morning white mask, in all black. We turned the corner looking for another group of trick or treaters but we seen somebody with a white mask in all black, it had admittedly clicked that we were being followed by the killer on the news. So we crossed the street and started heading back from the way we came from.
    After a few steps I turned around but he wasn't there anymore. We started to get really nervous because at this point we had no idea where he was. Getting close to our houses again we seen him again but he started to run at us screaming LEAVE!! He grabbed me and said happy halloween. It was my friend Frank that I haven't heard from all day. As we walked into my house Frank said Hey who is guy with the white mask in the corner of the room.

  5. One day there was a girl named heather. In halloween night her parents and siblings went trick or treating but she did not go because she had a lot of homework to do. When she was home alone doing her homework she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. When she was doing her writing assignment she heard a strange noise, it sounded like if the wind was screaming. When she heard the noise she ran to her room and hide under her bed. When she was hiding under her bed she saw a shadow it looked as a really big monster. Then she heard the front door open so she ran to the door thinking that it was her parents but when she got there there was no one there but the door was opened and she looked all over the house but she didn’t find her parents.

  6. One scary night in Hoboken. These group of college kids were standing in front of my car with white masks on. I wasn’ts sure if it was a setup or not because they were in front of a school so you wouldn’t think that they would do anything disruptive. All of a sudden they start to walk up closer to my car and i thought it was really weird and awkward. I wasn’t really sure to understand what their intentions were so I started up my car, but for some odd reason my car wasn’t even starting… my heart dropped to my stomach. I started to call for help because I was so nervous I didn’t even know what was going on. I couldn’t even tell if this was a serious situation or not. Finally someone answered their phone… and asked where I was I told
    Them… and immediately he said to leave now it’s a set up… you need to leave now! I explained to him that my car wasn’t starting up… I was so startled I didn’t know what was going to happen… they started to walk up closer to my car.. knocking on my car window.
    One with a red mask took it off and it was my cousin the whole time. They were just trying to scare me lol. Worst feeling ever I felt so relived knowing it was him. So he got into my car and I asked him who the other people were and he said he has no idea. He thought maybe it was our family members but no it wasn’t…. We jumped over each other to switch spots, he hot wired the car so that it will start and backed up so fast I almost got a whiplash it was so unbelievable. Thank god we got out of the area…. on our way out of that college development a clown decided to stand in front of the car with a red balloon 🎈 I guess he thought we were going to stop? But nah my cousin swerved that car like a G and we made it home nice and safe and called the cops so that they were aware to what was going down by The college.
