ReplyDeleteAt the time my friends and I were 12 .My one friend will call him Mason and my other friend will call him Jackson.So Mason, Jackson, and I were doing our normal hangout thing before we asked too have a sleepover. We would go into the woods and get a couple other people and we would play manhunt in the woods for hours and hours.Now these woods were not very far from the bad side of town were all of the weird and dangerous kid/people lived.Now one of the kids that lived over there would play with us because he used to live close to me Mason, and Jackson.He had too move because they could not afford their home anymore and now he is stuck over there and the only way he can leave that place is when he comes and hangs out with us and plays manhunt.He tells us stories that if we were too go there at night it would be very bad.From where we were we can see the little light far away from us and that was the only light where he lived so it was black as space itself.So we said that we should not go over there even though we want to have a good game of manhunt.When we went to hide their was a man that looked a shadow as we past and then he disappeared we ran and we ran and we didn’t stop until we thought we were far enough away we ran and just kept on running and then finally we reached the white dyed color of the road that never ended. So after about 20 minutes of hiding we were found by our other friend his name was Jake.So then it got later and we got more bired and then we went to the Jake’s neighborhood the kid that had too move and it was very scary there was litter graffiti messed up house and a bunch of other things that would frighten people that do not live there.Their were people but not just any type of people they were gang members of a gang called the tickling bears. Wow those guys are very scary they were wearing hug me shirts and some save the tree pants.But the scary part about this was a scary house down the street close to the woods we were playing and legend has it that so many crimes have happened there murder suicide and other such I shall not say.So we I said “I have a very bad feeling about this I don’t think we should go in there because of what people say”.They didn’t listen but I wasn’t staying outside so we went in and there was somebody up stairs with a knife and the only reason we say was because of passing headlights through the front window.Now we go too run but the door locked so we broke a window sadly me and Mason were the only two too make it out.I have no clue if Jackson or Jake ever made it or they are still stuck there too this day I wonder what happen but I guess I will never know because I am not going anywhere close to that house ever again in my entire life .Even if my friend asked me if I could go with him I would say know.I just hope those too found a way out with their lives.

One time my sister and i were talking around town just looking for something to do we ran into some guy just rambling about some dirt road to never go in. We got alittle scared so we just walked away. We couldn't stop talking about what he was saying and was anxious to go find it. On the way for us trying to find the dirt road we ran into kelsey she wanted to hangout with us. After we were done explaining to her what happened not even five minutes ago she was kinda scared and didn't really wanna go. A couple hours later we saw the guy again and he looked worse than what he did before when he came up to us and every sec he started to get closer to us and started whispering "dirt dirt dirt road AFTER DARK!" we all started running and our hearts were dropping into our chests. We never even looked back we just kept running But then when we looked up there was this dirt road and we all said to our selves "do you think this is the dirt road he was talking about' they just nodded there heads and stood there in silence. I was begining to walk in but emilee and kelsey did not move, they just sat there in fear. at first i was just gonna turn around and just bring them home but something about this dirt road got me wanting to see whats so bad about a dirt road. Emilee and kelsey started to walk in but in very tiny steps. Its been 10 min and we were all still walking in the dirt road and nothing interesting was happening. As we looked up the sky started to get dark and that means we had to start heading home. So we all turned around and started heading back but has we were starting to head back the dirt trail was gone there so no path just a big black wall, so we started to look around to see if there was any other way and there wasn't, it look like the black wall was never ending. At that point i started to get scared. We were trying to remember what that creepy old guy said and emilee said didn't he say something about the dark. It was all coming back to us. At that point i was wishing that i never stepted foot into this dirt trail. A couple minutes went by and we were all still stuck in the trail until we started hearing someone humming through the woods. It sounded like it was getting closer and closer. Than se started getting louder. Than out of know where the humming just stopped and it was really quiet. we all just ran the other direction from th wall and we never stopped running until we saw alittle bit of light flashing through the woods and we knew it was our way out but as we got closer it was a huge cabin all glew up and we heard people so we defintly knew that was our way out so we all ran to the step and started to slam on the door. When someone opened the door it was a young women and she invited us in and we were trying to explain to her what happended and she said it happens all the time so she got us a drink of water and after we drank it she started laughing and a bunch of head less people started to walk in and i screamed and fell to the floor.....(BANG) i woke up in my bed sweating and crying. Laying next to me were emilee and kelsey sound asleep. It was just a dream, i was relived i wiped my tears off and turned over on my side and went back to sleep.

ReplyDeleteThese 3 kids were walking on one dark Halloween night. There names were josh, abby, and tyler they are all siblings. They saw a house that looked super suspicious. They walked up close to it and the door randomly opened. The three kids all ran back the street screaming in fear. Abby looks and josh and tyler and she walked up to the house alone, but tyler and josh follow a little behind her. The door opens once again, but this time they stayed. In the distance of the house, they all hear a little girl crying for help. Immediately, Josh and Tyler run in the house to see what's going on. As they run in the door slams shut. Abby starts banging on the door yelping for help but no one is around. She goes into the backyard. She breaks a window, but it immediately repairs itself. She goes to the front door to see if it will open again. She gets to the door and it opened and she's sees her brothers in a chair all tied up.
Abby runs into the house and the door slams behind her. She goes and unties her brothers and they try to find an escape route, but then again they hear the girl scream for help. They want to go help, but they don’t if it's a trap. Abby started asking what her brothers saw, they said nothing. All they remember is going in the house and moments later being ties up. Abby asked why nothing is happening to her before anyone can answer the little girls scream began to get closer. Abby and her brothers now realize it's a trap. They all start taking objects trying to break the door, but each time a piece breaks off its repairs itself. They keep trying and trying until josh sees the spirit and starts to distract it while abby and tyler break the door. They finally break it and they all run out. They are all still in fear and can't believe what just happen, but it was all in abby's dream.
It all started on Halloween night a group of friends were having a party. They all decorated the house and it all looked very good. Their names were John, Marvin, Ryan, Mike, and Zack. They all wanted to play a game so they sit down and begin to play cards. Ryan got thirsty so John went to go get soda and ice. When he got the ice the lights blanked out. Ryan lucky kept lanterns in the kitchen where they were playing the game and passed one out to everyone. When Mike flashed the light near the entrance of the room and there was a John dead on the floor. Everyone gasped and know one knew how it happened. On the ice tray was taped a note. The note read “What started out as a nice day will change with an ice tray” Ryan instantly knew that someone had planned it. Marvin was quick to suggest that they call the police but Ryan said “How is that going to help, we’re supposed to tell them that someone died when the lights were out and nobody saw it, there going to think of us did it.” Then Zack said “I don’t want to be that guy, but maybe it was one of us.” Everyone was in a panic and paused and thought for a moment that maybe it was someone. On the ground next to John was another note. Ryan picked it up and it read “Don’t be scared, just look light does not go, simply look in a ____” The last word was blank. It was a clue. Ryan decided that they should all split up in pairs and look for the answer to the clue. Everyone agreed after some concerns of splitting up. Marvin went with Zack and Mike went with Ryan. After searching for a while they all turned up empty. Zack and Marvin went up to the guest room. They searched the closets, under the bed and they still found nothing. Then Zack went down the hall and looked into the bathroom and found a piece of paper folded up saying “READ.” He read it and from downstairs Ryan and Mike heard the gunshot that pierced through everyone’s hearts. The gunshot was like a roar of a tiger. Everyone quickly ran up stairs. Marvin was already there standing in shock. Everyone met and found him. All confused and afraid they didn’t know what happened, then they found the hole in the wall from the gun. They found another hole and solved the last clue. There was another note that read “Don’t stand there just in shock. Poor the _____ and it will _____.” Everyone was frustrated because they now had to figure out two blanks. They all decided to go downstairs and stay as a group. They were thirsty so Ryan went to go get the Soda that they bought earlier, while the others tried to find out the clue. They were all confused, but then Marvin made a really good point that if you stand in the wrong thing that and poor something you will get shocked. As they said this Ryan opened a can of coke with ice in it by a broken charger that was spraying out electricity. When he opened the can everyone heard it and rushed in like a herd of sheep. The drank rised and poured all over the place but lucky enough he was away from the charger. And under the charger was a note. In a hasty decision Zack went to go grab the note, but Marvin knew if he grabbed it he would die from the shock so he jumped in jumped in front of him and got shocked to death. There was two left. Ryan and Zack were all that remained. They both looking shocked and sad picked up the note and it said “Final Clue.” It read “You have all the answers it all started from the beginning.” Then out of nowhere John who everyone thought was dead lunged up like a kangaroo. He had a gun and chased them down. He ran really fast. He was flash. Finally they both found a phone and called 911. They answered and told them they was a mass killer. But before they could say who there was two gunshots. They were never heard from again.

ReplyDeleteThe lake closed over her nose and mouth as Sara sucked in a lung-full of cold, black water. On her next breath, she opened her eyes and saw the red LCD shining: 12:02 AM. Again. Three nights in a row, same dream, same time. Sweat dripped from her hair and drenched her nightgown. Sara stumbled to the bathroom, turning on all of the lights to shake off the aura of the dream that still clung to her.Steam from the shower filled the bathroom and Sara breathed it in deeply. She could still smell the dankness of her dream. She dropped her head and closed her eyes. They snapped back open as a hissing vortex suddenly sucked all of the steam into the drain at her feet. In the same instant, a fish-dead hand slid across her shoulder. She screamed and threw her body against the shower wall, turning the showerhead to the left. The water scalded her neck, shoulder and hand as she battled to stop the flow.Adrenaline, pain and fear drove her stiffly from the shower. The room was bright. Normal. Her body shook convulsively and she reached for a towel to warm herself. The towel brushed her badly burned shoulder and she hissed in pain. It sobered her and she headed to the kitchen where she kept the emergency burn salve.In the kitchen, the salve was already laid out, with fresh gauze, waiting for her. Normal went away again.The old woman spoke warmly, “Here, let me get that for you. It was my fault – so sorry – but it IS awfully difficult to get your attention!” Sara was frozen in shock. The woman placed a cup in her hand. Here drink this. Coffee. You need it.” Sara sipped wordlessly, numb to the un-reality.“I can’t stay long,” said the old woman. “Manifestation takes sooo much energy. Easier to show up in a dream, but you kept drowning on me!” She let out a little chortle.Shock and disbelief turned to annoyance and the very-real pain in her shoulder made her angry. “Well, you’ve got my attention now – what do you WANT?”“It’s not what I want, but what you want, my dear.”“I want you to go leave me alone.”“That’s one option. You’ve been given a choice. You are due to die.” The old woman let it sink in. “I’m here to prove that we do go on, after we die.”“That’s supposed to be reassuring?” The hair on Sara’s arms stood up.“For many people it is. Your choice is this: tell people what you’ve experienced here tonight – give them hope, or die at 12:02 tomorrow.” As the last word left her lips, the woman started to fade.“It’s up to you, dear. . .”For the first time in days, Sara felt calm. She placed a terry-cloth robe gingerly on her freshly-bandaged shoulder, took a sip of coffee and dialed the phone.
ReplyDeleteTwo summers ago was a summer that bayville wouldn’t forget. It all started when Bethany Adams moved to town. When the neighborhood noticed somebody new moved to town it’s all everybody talked about. The one thing that threw people off was the fact that they moved into 66 Wellberry street. Everybody knows it’s the most haunted house in the town. The family looked extremely odd to the town. They never came outside unless there was an emergency or they needed to walk there dog. When it was light out they would be as quiet as mice and when night time came around is when they did more normal things. Bethany was a teenager and in two weeks would be starting the towns high school as a freshman so that was what all of the other kids were waiting for, to see what she was like. School came around and she made a few friends and everybody realized she wasn’t all that bad. As soon as things were starting to get better she disappeared and wasn’t seen at school. One friend went to her house to check up on her, she answered the door but only stuck her face out and wouldn’t let the inside be seen. Her friend asked if everything was alright and Bethany said “everything is fine you can’t be here, PLEASE GO”. Her friend being shocked ran straight home after that telling her parents what happened. The cops were called to see if what was going on and the scene wasn’t pretty. The officers knocked and there was no answer so they kicked the door in. One by one they went inside to see Bethany and her family all dead in various different ways of death. After all of the officers were inside the front door slammed shut and there was a message written on the back of the door in blood. The message said “ This is my house”. To this day the Adams family death still remains a town mystery

ReplyDeleteEveryday a couple of boys decided to go into this abandoned house on fourth street they always when to. That was their daily thing to do after school. Their parents didn’t bother to call the cops because they knew they would come home but when they felt like it. They all loved to joke a lot and took nothing serious weather is was getting in trouble at school of get in trouble by their parents or the police n. All of them got bad grades and were almost ready to drop out and they picked on kids all the time . So one day after school the boys decide to go hang there for a little. It was Jimmy,Bob,and Tim. But Jimmy loved to play around the most he would touch and explore stuff he wasn’t allow to touch and places he shouldn’t go. The house was abandoned after a old men died in it and nobody lived there since. It was a creepy house and nobody went near it but them. The first time they every when in there they broke a window to get in and of course it was Jimmy’s idea to go in. But once Bob and Tim and since nothing happen to Jimmy they followed in the house right with him. And Jimmy decided to go in the basement of the house and they had never been down there. Bob and Tim didn’t follow him and he was done there so long they went to go look for him. He was hung up on a wall and all bloody. He was on his last breathe and he said run before you get took and they started screaming. Then they turned their heads and seen this Bigfoot and he was all bloody too and it was so many bodies done there and and took them too. And ever since then they were never found.
