The Dark Storm

One day at a farm there was a farmer named Joe. He was the most successful farmer in town… until 1999 October 16. There was a very bad storm that blew all his cattle away. The wind was so powerful it almost blew up his farm. He even got a scar from a branch of a tree that hit him on the head. He was so sore he could not even move. He was in such danger that the wind blew him into the cloud. He landed one hundred kms on a high hill. He almost died when he landed, but he was able to get help.

The Statue

One time this girl was babysitting these two boys and they wanted to watch TV in their parents room. In the corner of the parents room there was a really scary clown statue. The children were really scared of it, so the babysitter called the parents and asked if she could cover it up. The mother replied, "We don’t have a clown statue in our room," and the girl suddenly dropped the phone. Neither the babysitter or the children were ever heard from again.

1,000,000,000,000

one day a girl was walking home and someone came and kidnapped her. He sent a letter to her mother and it said, ‘If you ever want to see her alive ever again, you will do what I say.’ The mother said, “I will do whatever you say, but don’t hurt her.“ The letter said, ‘I want 1,000,000,000,000.’ So the mother sent the money, but a day later the mother got the news that she had been killed. So every year on her birthday, she would come back alive and haunt the man who killed her.

Ghosts

Ghosts One day, I was home alone. My parents had just bought a new haunted house. I was watching TV. And all of a sudden, I heard a ghost walking through my kitchen. I quickly rolled under the couch. As I looked behind me I saw the said ghost! I got from under the couch and I ran into my room and I slammed my door. I picked up my cell phone and called 911.

When I didn't know was another ghost was under my bed breathing very hard. I talked to a police officer and he said "I will be there in 3 2 1..." When he bust the door open, the ghosts were chasing me around the house. One of them bit my leg off and I screamed in horror. The police officer got his gun out and shot all of the evil ghosts.

The next morning, My parents came back from vacation in Hawaii. They gave me the look as if I threw a house party. I shrugged my shoulders in discomfort. They looked at my injuries and took me to the hospital. On the way there, I told them the whole story. A few weeks later, my family and I moved out of the ghostly house and into a safe apartment.

A Boring Saturday Night

It was a boring Saturday night and My friends: Delon, Chartesa, Lance, Jahqui, Arianna, Destinie, and Kenyada were all at my house chilling like a villain, when all of a sudden the phone rang. Chartesa answered the phone and said, “ Hello” The person was just breathing and making noises on the phone. She said, “Don't call back until you get some common sense,” and then she hung up the phone. They called back and only this time I answered the phone and I said, “Run Your Mouth.” The person said, “I can see everyone in that house and in 2 minutes one person is going to die.”

All of a sudden someone began to bang on the back door . We all jumped and said, “Who is it?” I ran to the door with his fists up and ready to box! To be continued...

THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

Once upon a time there was 2 girls named Regina and Gretchen. They were walking through the woods and they had to go to the bathroom. Soon they saw a house, so they went up to it and they heard: THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

“Lets go,” said Gretchen. “No, I am not leaving this bathroom,” said Regina as she locked the door. Then she heard: THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

She fell asleep. Later she woke up and went outside. The police were outside and they asked her if she knew Gretchen Weigner. “Yes,” she said. “Then turn around and run that way and don’t look back.” She ran and ran and then she looked back and there was Gretchen on the door of the house!

The Cookie

Once upon a time there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved scary stories. One day Timmy was reading a book with his sister, Mindy, about a scary fuzzy animal in the woods that would bite people on their toes. Mindy left Timmy long enough to go for a cookie. As soon as she was gone, Timmy turned the book upside down. And guess what? The fuzzy animal fell right off the page onto Timmy's desk. Timmy tried to hit it with the book, but the little thing jumped down and started nibbling on his toes. He yelled for Mindy! Mindy ran back in the room and saw what had happened. Quickly she put the book on the floor and put the cookie on the page. The little animal saw the cookie and jumped onto the book. Mindy slammed the book shut and the animal was squeezed back onto the picture. Timmy was so glad! He grabbed his toes and was so glad Mindy rescued him before the little animal could nibble them more than he had. Mindy figured the animal was only hungry since it had tried to eat the cookie. Slowly they opened the book and there was the picture with the fuzzy animal eating a cookie. Timmy and Mindy thought they saw a smile on its face.

Bitten...

A while back at the age of 12 or 13, I had a dream... A dream that I was being attacked by a wolf. I was running through the woods, and it was dark... I tripped over a large stick, fell to the ground, and the wolf jumped upon me. He slashed and ripped and tore at my neck, and before my gurgling of blood stopped a loud crack of thunder awakened me. My neck felt warm and wet, so I touched my neck and a sharp pain came upon me... I went to the bathroom and saw that I had a 4 inch long scratch on my neck about 1 centimeter deep... I still have the scar from it today, but it is hard to see so you have to look at it closely... (Have them look at your "scar" and when they get close yell, "BAM!!" and they will jump hard. You have to jump too, or else it won't work.)

B…Mary

One night - A SPECIAL NIGHT - me and my friend decided to do the B…Mary dare! Well, we went upstairs to her guest bathroom, turned off the lights and turned the water on. We chanted “B…Mary” three times while spinning. Right after, we heard a thump and ran! As we went back to the room, there she was crouching in the corner with a bloody knife. We almost fell down the stairs from a hard pressure. From now on, we never say her name and we will never enter a guest bathroom again! To this day, she still lives and haunts us!

Into the Woods

Brittany walked up the rode. She was going to do her dare. In the woods, she heard footsteps following her. She panicked. "Hello?...Ashley?...Liz? Is that you?" She yelled. No answer. She ran by the creek, and later that night she was found dead; but not fully. She was in the hospital. The alarm beeping. A signal meaning a break in. Brittany had done the dare and now she was being chased and was going to be killed.

Brittany woke up. "Mum!" She yelled. "Papa!?" She barked.

She was home alone. Weird huh? She got a phone call, "Brittany...come to the woods...tonight."

She left. She went into the woods. Murdered in the middle of the night.

Chartesa

It was late at night and Chartesa was with Lance that night because Alex was out of town. They heard this noise in the bushes moving around and they heard someone scream. Lance told Chartesa to stay there, while he went to check. She heard Lance scream, then Chartesa got scared because she was in the street all by herself. She decided to go look. She saw Lance all scratched and bloody. She screamed and ran to call 911, then a voice said, “Where are you going? You’re next! Lance is gone and that girl that was screaming was De'lon. She died! Now you can die, too.“

Chartesa Ran to Gabby's house. Gabby was eating chicken, then all of sudden Chartesa burst in. Gabby started choking, but she was just playing. She heard the voice again, then the whole world paused. The voice said, “Gabby is about to die or you can marry me and you can live.” Chartesa married the ghost and nobody heard from Chartesa again until the fourth of July when Chartesa came back white as a Ghost. All Chartesa said was, “I saved your life.”

Killers and Dogs

Once there was a girl named Maya. She wasn't very popular and she did not have many friends. Her parents sometimes hit her for no apparent reason. One day she knew that she had to change all of it.

One day at school, during lunchtime in the cafeteria, she had a plan. She slowly walked to the trash can, which was right next to the door, and slowly, opened the door. Nobody noticed. She finally ran as fast as she could to get outside and escape the school grounds.

She finally had to slow down, because she had lost her breath while running. Just then she heard a loud announcement from a TV in a store. It said that there was an escaped killer on the loose, around the area that Maya was in. She suddenly became a little frightened. She began to hear a noise that sounded like a limping dog. She turned around, and she saw a poor little dog limping, then she saw what looked like HIM. The killer from the TV. He was a few hundred yards away. She knew she had to get out of there, but what about the dog? She had to help him.

What happens? Find out in KILLERS AND DOGS PART 2
