When Nick got to school his friends were talking about a haunted house. Nick loves scary things. His room was filled with scary posters, and of course, his favorite holiday was Halloween. When he went over to his friends to see what they were talking about he overheard them and got excited. on his way over he could hear the gym teachers talking about it too, when he got to his friends he asked what they were talking
“Yoooo Nick, you hear about that classmate that went missing at the haunted house and apparently he hasn't been seen for over a week!” Nick was scared but he also got a bit excited, but Nick had to get to class.
The day was going by so slowly because all Nick could think about was the spooky house, it was a cold Friday night. Nick told his friends that he was going to the haunted house, they told him that he shouldn't and it was a good idea, but he didnt care. He was very bored and needed something fun to do. When Nick was getting ready he wore all black and grabbed a flashlight and a walkie-talkie, so he could talk to his friends just in case something went wrong, but he knew nothing bad was going to happen. On the way there he was getting spooked by almost everything, lights flashing, cars, and even just the darkness was scaring him. When Nick got there he sat there and looked at the house looking at every door and every window, every time he blinked he swore he saw something move.
Nick manned up and started to walk to the front porch, when walking up the stairs they were creaking, Nick was trying to walk as quietly as possible but it would still creak, When Nick tried to open the front door his hand was shaking and he couldn't even open the front door, when he finally did he opened the door and didnt expect to see what the house looked like. He walked in and looked to the right, when he turned he saw the living room with 2 reclining chairs and 1 large couch with a fireplace and pictures of the only family above the fireplace, when he walked into the living room he went over to the pictures, he slowed walked trying to make no noise he turned the flashlight on and saw the family. The picture showed a dad, a mom, a daughter, and a little boy not even 2 years old. Nick got a bad feeling he questioned if he should keep exploring, he knew he had to though. When he looked to the left he saw the kitchen, in the kitchen was a table, with 4 chairs around it and a sink and some cabinets, when Nick started to walk over he heard a noise and got scared
“What the heck was that” Nick says Nick pulls out the walkie-talkie
“Hello do you guys have a copy, I'm hearing weird noises please tell me that isn't you” Nick wasn't getting anything back from his friends so he put the walkie-talkie away.
Nick kept going, the noises getting louder and louder, Nick getting more scared. Nick was about to leave but he had to see what was in the main bedroom, walking in the hallway with every step getting heavy. Nick got to the bedroom door, pushed it open, and saw something he wished he had never seen, the classmate life less on the ground.
“GUYS PLEASE HELP I NEED HELP!” Nick says. Nick ran out of the house looking back and saw his two friends staying there.
“GUYS GET AWAY FROM THE HOUSE RIGHT NOW!” both of his friends looking at Nick like he was some sort of alien. “What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Nick what happened in there?” one says “You really went in there?” the other says
“Guys that's not the point right now, I saw our classmate DEAD in there” Nick yells back
As they run back to Nicks's house they ask non-stop questions,
Nick got back to his house and he couldn't talk about it, Nick told his friends to leave and they did. When he went to sleep he was having bad dreams of being there, Nick was waking up every hour because of the nightmares. Nick was going to ask his mom to skip school on Monday so he could maybe get more sleep. But when Nick went to sleep his last nightmare felt so real, he was trapped in the house and he couldn't leave… or maybe it was real. When Monday came around his friends waited for him at school. Nick was never seen again.
