Me Amy and Brian may look simple but we love adventure and dangers so we decided to take a vacation to new taipei city but as we are toured the city we came across mysterious houses they somehow look like ufos so out of our sheer adventurer curiosity we headed inside and as we went inside there was all sorts of sounds and senses and smells suddenly being activated and the inside of the house was all futuristic and it was a little messy “so beautiful” said Amy “yeah and smelly” brain said sternly “ohh come on” I said “there’s nothing to be paranoid about“ but then unexpectedly the lights went out and everyone and everything went pitch black… then suddenly sounds were being exchanged “it sounds like slimy Allen creature-talk” Amy said then suddenly creatures arose everyone screamed and shouted and that’s when Brian said “I kn-“ But then the creatures saw him and in a fast grabbing action the Allens pulled him toward their secret hideaway area in the house Brian screamed at top of his lungs “aaaaaaaaaah” he scraped every inch of the floor trying to find a area in where he can grab a surface but the weirdly creepy creatures are to strong and in flash Brian was gone “Brian?” I said “this better not be a prank!” as I yelled aloud “he’s truly gone” Amy’s voice was filled with sniffles and tears ”there’s nothing we can do” I responded “I think it’s about time to go” l said Amy agreed “I didn’t like Brian all that much” “me too” I said “he was too paranoid about everything!” “Anyway let’s go home” said Amy “yeah” I responded……….THE END!

It was June 2022 Jaquanvion Tavious was in the driver seat of the car. Darnell Mooney was in the passenger seat turning up the radio, Joshua Dobb’s and his brother Marker Muscle were yelling at Joshua to turn down the radio he didn’t listen.

Jaquavion said “ We have a couple of minutes before we get there so just wait”, Joshua and Marker didn’t know were they were going because Jaquavion said it was a surprise. A few minutes later they arrived at Qiandao Lake, Hangzhou, China the brothers thought it was a regular visit to a lake but little did they know what was under it. Jjettas and Colton Borbertson showed up right after and they greeted everybody. Joshua was wondering why they showed up until they pulled air tanks and scuba gear out of the pack of their truck. Marker asked “ why do we need Scuba gear for a lake until Colton told him to link in the lake. He looked over the edge of the dock and saw an entire city under the water. They began to put on their scuba gear and descend into the water. Marker was looking at his air; he was scared that it would run out while they were down. They were exploring everything unti Colton discovered the dead corpse of a previous citizen of the city. After a while Marker Muscle discovered a temple that was glowing because the sun was pointing at it. He called everyone over and they all entered the temple. Until the doors started to creek… Suddenly the doors fully shut and they couldn’t get out. All of their air tanks were only full of a couple more breaths; they realized this when Marker started to pass out and drowned. Joshua Dobbs was the first to attack and went to grab a sharp object from the Broken temple. He stabbed Colton Borbetson and then they all paused. They all looked at Jaquavion he had a knife. After a few minutes it was quite slow. Jaquavion rose from the water and was wounded everywhere on his body he thought he was the only survivor. A few seconds after he left a bloody hand rose from the water

It was a gloomy rainy day and Ali, Cameron, Jayla and Drew were all hanging out by Dead Seahorse lake. It was named that because back in 1950 there was a really bad flood so bad that it caused a sinkhole under Seahorse boarding school.  The four friends then decide to walk up the cliff to the very top. Ali had gotten really close to the edge. The others were admiring the view when Ali screamed. The rest of the group flips their heads around and they see a hand holding on for dear life. They rush towards the edge. Ali couldn’t hold on any longer. She falls. Splash. They watch her hit the water. They look at the water and scream Ali’s name. The water calms down. She doesn’t come up. They all run down back to the lake and start screaming for Ali again in case she swam to shore. They still couldn’t find her. They decided they were going to go get scuba gear and go diving to see if Ali was down there. When they get their gear then they take a boat out to the spot where Ali fell. They dive in. What they see leave’s a horrific look on their faces.  ( DRAMATIC PAUSE )        What they saw were skeletons in school desks. They swim around trying to avoid any contact with what they just  saw while still trying to find Ali. After about five minutes of looking Cameron stumbles upon a red glow in the dark jellyfish. Buzz. Zap. It stings Cameron. Cameron passes out and floats to the surface. Jayla and Drew swim up to the surface to go help Cameron. When they get to the surface they don’t see Cameron until they look up. What they see is Cameron floating right above them with her eyes rolled back to the back of her head. She looks like she’s been possessed by Vecna. Water starts swirling up and around us. Cameron talks to us in a distorted voice and says

“ If you want to see Ali again and get Cameron back to normal you must sacrifice one of yourselves.”

Jayla steps up. “I’ll do it.” she says

“Nooo,” Drew yells.

“I’m sorry Drew but I have to do it to save Ali” Jayla says almost in tears.

“But why?” Drew says with tears streaming down her face.

“Because I'm dying” Jayla stuttered.

“What?” Drew muttered quietly.

“ I got bit by a zombie spider on the way back down to the lake from the cliff.” Jayla said “I'll be dead in a matter of hours or minutes.”

Drew nods understanding because she knows there’s no cure for a zombie spider bite. Zap lighting struck down on Jayla and in a puff of smoke she was gone. Cameron falls into the water. Shocked back into reality she shouted

“What happened”

Drew explained to Cameron what had happened.

Not even a moment later. Poof . Ali appears. Drew and Cameron explain everything to Ali . When they left the lake that day they swore to never ever go back. Little did Drew and Cameron the Ali that stood beside them wasn’t the real Ali.  Underwater in the abandoned sunken school laid the bodies of Ali and Jayla frozen with fear on their faces.

Bob Jeff and Joe went on a car trip. Their parents said “the lake is the scariest place we have gone, you should go there” Bob, Jeff and Joe got in their car and drove to the lake. When they arrived their car wouldn’t open and BOOM! The car flipped over and flew into the lake. Next thing you hear is “eeeeeek” and Bob got pulled under through the window Joe and Jeff tried swimming down but there was like an invisible force not letting them. When Jeff and Joe got back to shore they saw bubbles rising then… then they saw Bob's hat and scarf floating up with red on it which they thought was blood. They drove off crying when they got home. Their house was on fire and all they saw was a shadowed figure walking in the house with an axe with blood on it they couldn’t see their parents anywhere then. THUD THUD they heard something running at them…

Chapter one

Today was the day me and some friends left for Australia to visit my family. Izzy, my friend, had never met my family in Australia. Today was the day. My brother deacon brought his friend Jaxson, they were going to watch us and organize the flights.

We got to the airport with three hours to spare. Deacon looked at us and said “Hollyn you and Izzy go grab some food, while me and jaxon get snacks for the flight” me and Izzy both looked at him

“Ok meet here in 10” Deacon nodded his head in agreement as he walked away with Jaxon

“So what are we going to do in Australia?” Izzy said.

“We will probably go to some zoos, and aquariums, it's really fun there” I said excitedly. “Oh and Izzy there’s a really cool old asylum we can go take tours through they say it's haunted”

Izzy looked at me with a little fear “as long as its not just us going than sure…”

(10 mins later) we met my brother with the food. As we slowly unveiled it he noticed it was Chinese food, the smell lingered, the smell of spring rolls mostly.

After we ate and hung out for a bit till they called our flight. We boarded and were so tired we all just fell asleep on the flight.

Chapter two

Nothing eventful happened on the flight. My uncle was waiting for us at the gate in Sydney. The air felt so fresh as we all took deep breaths in to adjust, it wasn't like our air in Oregon.

In the car my uncle was wondering what we wanted to do every one said stuff like “zoo” or “eat” but i looked up and asked “can we go look at the old asylum”

Everyone stared in confusion “why would you want to do that” my brother asked

“For the “history” experience” I said slowly.

“Whatever you want” my uncle said

Chapter three

My uncle made the first thing we did at the asylum because no one wanted to do it but me. I thought that was ok though people don't need to do it if they don't want to but i want to.

My uncle really wanted no part of the asylum but he wanted to spend time with family so he did.

As we walked in, the tour guide was already standing there they were tall and slender, and their motion was almost lifeless. “Are you the ones here for the tour, how many will there be?”

“5 of us,” my uncle said.

“Very well, will you be doing the overnight stay?”

“Only 4 of them will”

“Your taping out, that will be the best part” I complained to my uncle.

“I wish i could too” my brother and Jaxon laughed

Chapter 3 the tour

“So” the guide said slowly “there is a women's ward and a mens ward” the guide paused and looked at us then slowly continued on “in the wards there were people of all ages in the wards from kids to elderly men and women”

They handed us a paper with all the reasons to be sent here. For something made in the late 1830s it was pretty intense. You could be sent for any of the seven deadly sins and, if you don't believe in the same religions.

As the tour went on it got colder, chills would run down my spine frequently. My uncle left at about 9:00pm since we had been there since 6:00pm. The tour guide showed us to the room we would be staying in.

Everyone was pretty silent during the tour, no questions asked, just a couple of head nods, oks and yeses. I decided to make small talk with Izzy.

“Did you enjoy the tour”

“It was pretty scary i really don't want to sleep here”

Deacon decided to but in “we can leave now” deacon looked at jaxon

“Ya lets leave” he said quietly as if not wanting to wake someone

Chapter four leaving

We all got up off the cold floor and started walking towards the door…

It was 1997 October 31st, at six flags, New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina had hit not so long ago, leaving everything rusted over and holes everywhere at the amusement park. There was a 14 year old girl who’s name was Penelope smith. She wanted to explore the park. Later that night she broke into six flags and it slipped her mind that it was Halloween night, in her town it was believed that the spirts cross with the normal world. So she sneaked into the amusement park and she was walking and heard a stomping and a uncontrollable laughing sound, she turned around and saw a clown coming alive. As it chased after her she ran into the woods, it was pitch black, she fell into a bottom less pit. That is the story how Penelope smith a insane asylum girl who had an illusion that caused him to die. The clown was just a guard trying to help her.

( girl looking across her shoulder and running)  10-29-15, that was the day my whole life changed.
I had just left the jewelry shop when all of the sudden I heard blaring sound of police sirens “ to bad, almost got away with it to” I knew I had to run, thee misdemeanors in 1 month I would definitely get sent to St. Bernard  county juvenile detention center. With the pace of a six flags roller coaster I ran into the woods. (Twigs snapping and breaking) I had caught my foot an a weird metal box half way out of the ground, as I fell and rolled down the dull and filthy hill all the leaves intertwined in my hair, a pile of fall leaves broke my fall but the unsettling sight of a fence blocked out by planes of wood and poles of metal with the eerie sight of a torn sign saying “cool zone”. I hopped the fence and to my surprise it looked like six flags, my moms took me there for my sixth birthday, I remember being exhilarated after going on Medusa I felt airborne and happy. That was the one thing i remember before the accident. I walk past the grime-covered clowns and get a chill down my back, like something is there. “No one else could possibly be here, right?” “Wrong”. It’s fine, it’s fine just some malfunctioning machines no one else is here. “Don’t worry I won’t hurt you, I hope”. (Carasol starts worrying in the background) something is off about this place but I don’t know what.

I never liked roller coasters, especially when they drop.

When I was a kid, my grandma always told me ghost stories. Of course, they were silly, I never actually believed them. However, since then, I've always had a fascination with the supernatural. That's why I decided to get a job in paranormal investigation.
Recently, I got a job checking out a place in New Orleans. A long-abandoned Six Flags theme park. Apparently, some kids went to check the place out and reported seeing some sort of monster. My boss sent me to take footage and see if I could spot anything. He suggested making a document and writing down anything weird that takes place.

Penelope sighed while closing her laptop. She leaned back in her seat.

"This the place?" Her taxi asked.

She looked out the window to see a long dirt path. To the side, there was a rusty old sign wording: Six Flags.

"This is it." She replied, getting out of her seat.

"Thanks."

Grabbing her bag, she started down the trail dust going up her leggings.
The park was desolate. Broken down rides, sun-bleached paint, weeds, and overgrowth everywhere.

"Hurricane Katrina really messed this place up.."

The theme park was dead silent, except for the creaking of rusted metal in the wind.

September 4, 2008

I just got back to the motel. Some strange things have happened already. First of all, I always had the feeling that I was being watched, paranoia...right? No.  When I looked behind me, I saw something. Maybe I was imagining things, but I saw something there. The second thing that happened really made me uneasy. It felt as if the park was winding around like a maze. I suddenly felt nauseous and motion sick. I ran until I found the exit. I dread returning to the park, yet somehow I don't want to leave it, it's pulling me in.

Penelope returned to the park early in the morning after a long and restless night.  When she got in, the gate closed behind her with a loud bang. In a flurry of panic, she ran over and tugged on the bars.

"No! No!" She screeched.

The shadowy figure enclosed on her, she cried for help as its cold, boney, fingers clasped her shoulders.

I never liked roller coasters, especially when they drop.
But this one was the worst, because it didn't come back up.

“I don’t know Amity maybe we should turn back I don’t like this place…..” My best friend Tegan told me. We were in the abandoned city Pripyat Ukraine.

“Please, we should explore this place a little longer! This is where I got my magic, maybe we can learn something about it. ” I begged as the crunching of glass below our feet broke the silence. I got my witch magic here about a year ago here at Pripyat. Pripyat was abandoned years ago because of a nuclear reaction. Which sounds like something out of an apocalypse movie.

“What was that!?” Tegan yelled as she pulled me closer

“I knew we shouldn’t have come here.” I tried to calm her down as the sound of footsteps became louder. This place was abandoned for a reason the nuclear levels were to high for anyone to be in there to long. A dark figure jumped out at us and Tegan was about ready to yank my arm of. I held her back as she tried to sprint out of there but I stopped her when the voice of the creature sounded familiar.

“There you guys are!” Another one of our friends Leo had found us.

“We’re not supposed to be here!” He yelled. Tegan placed her hand on her chest as she caught her breath.

“We should get back to-“ an ear piecing sound cut Leo off. I coved my ears and held my head to my chest.

“Do you guys hear that?” The others seemed confused as I fell to my knees. The sound had faded into the darkness of the night and Tegan pulled me up from the concrete ground.

“Amity! Are you okay?” Leo griped my other arm and a wisper of a woman filled the air.

“Amity…… Amity……” I pulled Leo and Tegan closer. I was shivering by the cold voice.

“Amity? Are you okay?” Leo asked.

“Do you guys not hear that?” The tremble in my voice frightened Tegan as she asked

“What voice?” She tightened her grip on my arm. I rubbed my templates as a painful headache rushed through me. I could feel Tegan and Leo’s arms fall off me. The gentle breeze in the cold night calmed me as the voice appeared again.

“Amity……”

“Go away!” I yelled as the wind picked me up and spead out my limbs. The muffed sounds of Leo and Tegan yelling were covered by the soft voice again.

“You can’t hide from me Amity….. embrace me” I shuttered as a glowing light blurred my vision.

“Who are you?” I said as a gold stream of light gifted me a carved piece of wood that was a bit shorter than me. A carved owl rested on its top. The staff landed in my hand and I could feel my feet reach the ground. The cold wooden staff placed in my hand felt light in my fingertips.

“Amity!!!” Tegan rapped me in a warm hug. Once she released me from the tight embrace Leo rushed twords me.

“Oh my gosh! You were floating and your eyes were filled with some sort of light and then you were mumbling something and then-“ I cut him off.

“I know what happened I was there.” I joked

“What’s that?” Leo asked as he pointed to the staff. I looked at the glowing owl carving resting on the dark brown staff. I rubbed my hand along the smooth surface.

“I’m not sure.” I replied. Then suddenly chills ran down my body. The bright light was back. I rubbed my eyes to assure I was seeing right. I yelled

“No!” I blasted magic from my body and I heard my friends scream again.

Then as soon as it came the light was gone. When my eyes came back to focus, I realized I was alone. Tegan and Leo were gone. My heart was racing as fast as the rain was pouring down. Thunder had rolled in and the clouds were a dark gray. My now wet staff had lost its glow, and the cold breeze that brought me back to reality had disappeared. No sound but the pitter-patter of the raindrops hitting the concrete ground. As I looked around there was nothing but a cracked phone on the ground that signified that my friends were here. As I held the tears back I yelled

“Tegan! Leo!” No reply. This time I screamed louder.

“Teagan! Leo!” Nothing, then the last voice I wanted to hear had wispered

“You did this.” The woman’s wisper. A clear tremble in my voice as a said

“No…..” lightning stuck a few miles away but clear enough to see my name in the clouds, spelt with glowing lightning.

The voice said again this time sounding different and softer.

“You did this Amity” the thoughts running through my mind were undiscribable. I rubbed my templates as an muffled memory rushed through my head.

“No…..” I wispered.

“It can’t be……” the memory of my friends screaming and the cracked phone falling out of Leo’s pocket and hitting the ground was too much for me to take in. Had I used my powers to make my friends disappear?

“No….”

“Face it, Amity you’ll be alone forever.” The voice whispered. It was all my fault my friends were gone forever because of me. I let go of the wooden staff and dropped to the floor.

“And that’s the story of the lost witch Amity, legend has it she still roams around the village waiting for her friends to come back cursing all that stand in her way.”

How the story started is that this girl was just walking down town then she saw a paper on the ground so she picked it up and then she looked at it and it was a picture of a lot of dolls and she was scared of dolls.

She read down and saw if u stay one night  u will get 500 dollars. And she needed the money so she did it. Because she was poor and she wanted to go shopping at the mall so she went there but she hated it.

And why she hated it is because it is an island and it was really cold and that there was ice on the ground and that she had to be there and that she didn’t like the cold.

And that it was in the middle of no we’re like it was on an island in the middle of no we’re and she was scared that she was shaking on the way there.

That the this girl was so scared of dolls but she needs the money so she went to the dolls island and had to stay one night to get 500 dollars and so she went there by a car and that when she got there someone in the woods took her car away until the morning so that she could not leave early.

So after like 3 hours the dolls are moving the eyes are going all over the place and then the arms will just go up and down and side to side and that when she seen that she moved away from the dolls but they just found her and moved next to her and she just had it she kept on telling them to go away but they didn’t.

After 5 hours the sun was going down and then she just ran as far as she can away from the dolls wall so she could sleep in peace and then when she found a good spot she went to lay down and then she closed her eyes and then she fell asleep.

And that it is cold and she has to sleep on the ground and that she was not ok and that she was not happy because the ground was cold and that it was hard and that she didn’t like how it was and that she regrets being there.

Why she regrets it bc that she was wearing a crop top that was a tank top and we’re she was it was hot but that she didn’t know it was cold and that she should have put more layers because it was way too cold to be in that.

When it was morning she woke up by the hot sun on her face and then she got choked out by a doll too so she hates it there even more and then she opened her eyes and there were dolls over her head and all around her and she kicked the dolls. She punched the dolls.

And she just ran for her life like she ran and ran she didn’t stop until she got to the church that was 5 miles away from were she was because the there was crazy voodoo stuff going on so she got holy water on her she got a cross and she had god back in her the demons was in her.

And then she went in her bed and cried and didn’t stop. She is so sad and mad and scared and she dose not know what to do at all. She just went to sleep and then she has nightmares about the night and now she is way too scared to sleep.

And now she can’t sleep at all and that she can’t sleep at all so that she just had to get over it and that she just had to do something else.

And that so she just got over it and just went back over there to that doll wall and she just got over the dolls.

She went back to the doll way and now she is not scared anymore and she was there for over a week and now she is rich.

She got a new doll and moved to Hawaii and then she got a house on the beach and then just moved there for like a year.

And then that the beach had a big thang going on that the ocean ate her house and then she got a cat and her cat died.

Her cat died when the ocean came alive and ate the house but the ocean just ate the cat and spit the house back out.

The girl was so sad that the cat was the love of her life. She loved that cat so much that she sold the house and moved back to Mexico and went back to the dolls.

The doll made her feel like home and that she was so sad she got so much more money she was there for over 2 months and she was rich and she was happy and then she just got a new cat and dog and that she got over the ocean.

And then she moved to Montana and she loved it so much that she got a really big house and she got a boyfriend  and they had kids.

She had 2 boys and 1 girl and that she was so happy and that she just loved her best life ever.

And that her boyfriend was going to Marry her and that he was going to take her on a trip to Hawaii and that she doesn’t not like Hawaii.

She didn’t know at all and now they went to Hawaii and that she was scared and he didn’t know and he got the same house and she was so scared that she told him that they had to go somewhere else then Hawaii.

And he said why and she told him everything and was so scared that they went home the same day and that she was happy.

They went to Mexico and went to the dolls and the boyfriend loves the dolls because he is a doll and that he went back for a year and then was richer than ever.

And then they got old and died and they were sad because they never saw their kids again because the dolls killed them.

Happy never after and then the kids became rich and they lived the life of the parents.

That they don’t miss their parents because they just wanted the money and that they did everything for more money so they saw the dolls and they went.

Back home and they were so scared they had an accident and wet themselves and the dolls were  laughing at them and they ran home and went to sleep and never woke up. End of story

Beep* beep* beep* ugh… hey get up honey “no it’s a weekend” “hey, hey! alright I'm going to go make some coffee and wake the kids we have a lot ahead of us”.

I wandered around, my vision blurry, unable to feel, most of my senses were lost. I was lost, trying to figure out where or what ride I was in because I could probably know my surroundings to get out of the park.

The thing dug its sharp, rusty, long fingers, I passed out and woke up but my voice wasn’t mine. I was taller than usual, I had blurry vision.

Ryan! Says Kyle. When are we getting to our hotel room? Just a moment Kyle. We’re almost there. My name is Ryan and we arrived in Japan a little bit ago. Just then we made it to our hotel. Ugh says Kyle. What! I say This hotel sucks! Why? I ask. It’s just dirty and smells weird. Well Kyle the smell is the cleaning detergent and it's not dirty and it’s actually pretty nice. Ok let's unpack our stuff and go explore.

It’s been about 7 or 8 hours and we were getting bored. So as a joke I searched up “Haunted Places in Japan.” And this place called Nara dreamland pops up. So I read about it. On July 1st 1961, Nara dreamland was opened to the public and served as a DisneyLand in Japan for 45 years until permanently closing in 2006. They say it was haunted and was incredibly haunted. Hey Kyle, I asked. Do you want to go to a park called Nara dreamland and explore? Kyle was a daredevil and did anything so ofc he said yes let's go. And it was about 30 minutes from our hotel. So we get on stuff and go.

Ryan! Kyle said. I thought this was still open. No it's not and we're sneaking into it. NO! Kyle said and almost left but I told him to just go with it. Few! We’re in, I said. We explore a bunch or rides and then we go explore in this diner that was in the park. We go in and look around and see a bunch of graffiti and… Cardboard? And suddenly I went to see what’s in the bathroom. And oh my god.

There was a person sitting in one of the stables humming the creepy Japanese lullaby and the sound of knife stabbing maniacs and screaming with blood pouring out like a fountain on the floor. I screamed and ran to find Kyle! Kyle, we need to get out of here! NOW! He asked what happend? I didn’t have time to explain and grabbed his hand and ran out of there. We run and run and hear this screaming and running behind us. We didn’t have time to look back and we climbed back over the fence and ran to the car which we parked about a half a mile away because we couldn’t park it on the properties of the park. The thing chased us the entire way and we couldn't stop it. We got in the car screaming and I saw its face. When we drove away its face was visible in the light of the head lights. It looked like a weird monster murderer that had just touched red blood. We got away luckily and we never i mean NEVER! Wen back to that place. Me and Kyle had nightmares for years after this. I will never go back again.

“We have to find a way out!” Annie stated. Teagan and Liam were running from Him when they all… wait we should start from the beginning. One day Annie and Teagan (best friends with Annie super rich.) were going to Six Flags amusement park in New Orleans with Annie’s little brother Liam. They all were going to the roller coaster when Teagan's mom said

“I will be back s-“ they all turned and she was gone! Then they wanted to figure out where she went. Little did they know that there was a person waiting for them to come and deal with them. When it was time for their turn on the roller coaster they were looking at the person collecting tokens and he looked like someone they knew but who. Liam was just here for the park not to hang out with his sister and friend so he told them “i want to go to the ice cream shop”

Teagan and Annie looked at each other and asked “don't you want to go on the rides?”

He said “NO! I WANT TO GO TO ICE CREAM!!!” So then they all after the roller coaster went and got ice cream but then they looked back and saw the roller coaster line was one person long. After they got ice cream they went to their hotel at the park and took a nap but then Annie said “ where is your mom” and Liam said “she said she would be back soon. Can we go find her?”

Teagan replied “ sure let's go look”. They went back out to find there was no one at the park any more; they were all gone. They looked and looked but could not find anyone! So then they Wanted to get out of here but then they realized they needed to find Teagan and Liam‘s mom. “ where could she be?” Asked Annie

Teagan said “maybe lost in the park?.” So they all went to the middle of the park and saw a button they pressed it and then they fell into the ground! A figure appeared and it was their mom and then they turned around and saw a robot human!!!

“Mom, can me and Remi go play outside?” Asked Jackie, older of two siblings.

“Sure,” the mom said, not even caring.

Jackie went into the living room to get her younger sister.

“Come on Remi she said we could go” Jackie stated, without her sister having a clue what was about to happen.

“Ok!” Remi said happily.

The two sisters start to walk out the door, Jackie being fourteen and Remi being ten. So that left Jackie to be older so she got to lead her sister wherever she wanted her to go. Jackie’s plane was off to a great start.

“Where are we going,” asked Remi.

“Someplace special,” Jackie said with a sly smile.

They kept walking until they got to the very special abandoned amusement park known as Six Flags Orlando.

“Why are we here? This place looks really spooky,” Remi asked with a little quiver in her voice.

“We are here because it's going to be fun,” Jackie said as she opened the doors with a lock pick.

“Come on Remi, don't be such a wimp.”

“Don’t call me a wimp.”

“I will if you stop being one,” Jackie said as she walked deeper into the park.

“Jackie, wait,” Remi screamed as she ran to her older sister.

The two girls walked deeper and deeper into the park. After a while Remi’s face was getting as red as a tomato.

“Can we go home yet,” Remi asked with some anger in her tone.

“Absolutely not, it hasn’t even been ten minutes since we got here,” Jackie said as if she was supersized at what her sister said.

The girls kept arguing until they heard a noise that sounded like the gate to the park was locking on them with no one there. Soon after the door locked all of the rusted and busted amusement park rides started to move. It was like the park had come to life…………

Ben and AJ were watching a movie at bens house when bens sister ran in the room. “ what happened they asked” did you hear that noise she asked they looked at eachother then back at her. “No” they said were did it come from they asked. Bens sister said i think it came from the abandoned six flags his sister said. They were curious about what it was so they put on there jackets and went to check it out. When they got to the gate they herd the noise again it sounded like metal scratching metal. They hopped the chained fence and walked towards the noise it got louder and louder they turned the corner and the noise stoped. They got a little scared as the sun set and it was getting darker and darker.They wanted to take a rest after walking around the entire amusement park so they sat down on one of the roller coasters. The seats locked and they couldn’t get out. They sat there for a little then the ride took off it had lots twists and turns and a couple of loups were coming up they went over the first loup then on the top of the second loup it stoped. AJ was shaking to try to get the roller coaster to move but it wouldn’t budge. Ben was also shaking but they didn’t move. They were stuck at the top of the loup with no help. It was pitch black now and they were still stuck. They herd the noise again it got closer and closer until it was right behind them they couldn’t see what  it was because of the seats. Then there seat unlatched and they both fell and they have never been seen.

“What do you want to do today Elle?”                             ”I don’t really know… wait,we can go to the Brestovac Sanatorium”, said Elle.     “No way that’s too scary”, said Izzy. “Maybe you can go all by yourself and I will go shopping!”, said Izzy.                                         “I don’t think so,will you please come? It will be fun” Elle said.              “ok I will go”, Izzy said.                         “Yay, let's pack a bag of snacks and water and bring our phones for pics” said Elle.

“Ok but if I get creeped out we have to leave” said Izzy,                 “ok” said Elle.

“Wow, it's really creepy here”, said izzy. “It’s going to be fine, let's just go look around”, said Elle. They start to look around and hear noises.             “What’s that?“ Said izzy.                                     Probably “just an animal” said Elle,                             ”I don’t think so”, said Izzy. Then Elle has a shock on her face and says         “ok it’s time to go now!”                             “Wait what I thought you wanted too”- she didn’t get the chance to finish her words then.                                             “Well hello ladies what are you doing here?”                         Izzy says “we just got lost, that's all we are going to go now, nice meeting you”!

“You guys are going nowhere” said the woman next thing you know is that they are both tied up in rope so they get out.

“Help somebody!” Said Izzy                                     “No one is going to be out here looking at an abandoned medical place,” said Elle                                             “well if we would’ve gone shopping we would not be tied up and not be able to get out!” Said Izzy.

Then they hear another person “Hello?!” Izzy says “that's Mrs MacSween!”         “We are over here Mrs MacSween tied up in rope!”, said Elle.

“How did you get tied up in rope!”said Mrs MacSween “Long story but why don’t we get out of here before that woman comes back,” said Izzy.

But just before Mrs Macsween talks again Elle screams,Izzy looks at Elle and what she’s looking at and then Izzy screams.                        ”girls what are you screaming at” then she looks down and sees all these dead bodies and blood.

Elle says “we would’ve been next”

“Thanks for telling me that Elle already knew that!”

Mrs MacSween said “why don’t we get out of here and never come back”.

They drive back to the hotel they are staying at and the girls see a familiar face.                                         “Doesn't that look like that woman who tied us up at the creepy old medical center?” said Elle. “Looks Like her a lot,” says Izzy. They take the elevator to the room and the girls plop onto they’re separate beds.         “Im super hungry” says Izzy. ``Same” says Elle, they ask permission to go downstairs and order food,they go down the elevator,they hear voices of screams outside the elevator. “Izzy says what’s that?” Then the lights turn off and then back on. The elevator opens.

It was light outside even at the night, the stars and moon were shining bright. Dave had gone missing during our trip to the Parisian catacombs it was like one moment he was there the next he wasn’t. We searched for hours and hours throwing the twisting and cramped grave site there was no sign of him.

The thing was getting louder and louder something is there I know it is this dark place a trap no one should have gone into “why did I wounded off why did I” Dave wound. There was barely any light barely any people just rows and rows of graves and that hored sound getting closer. “I just wanted to see my grandpa’s home here one last time.”

“I’m going to go look for him, I’m going to find him, I’m going to be the hero everyone will love,” he thought, he ran in to try to find him in the catacombs. As he went in I felt as though I was being stared at, as though I was not the only one who entered this place. Nonetheless, I adventure onward into the dim dark of the twisting graves.

I have started to run I can’t handle the noise any longer I’m looking for an exit once more I will find it, I will not be stuck in this hole of a place, I'm GOING TO BE FINE. “I WILL LEAVE THIS PLACE.” As he ran in the winding halls hoping at every turn the exit will just be there, but it never was and at some point, he stopped sat on the floor, and just waited in silence, as hope left him.

I went farther and farther. Eyes looking everywhere and of a sudden a noise a screeching, thinking it might have been Dave he ran tour it when he saw nothing more than a lost cat also wanting out. He stop picked it up and continue walking, continue looking. He finally called out after a long while of walking for Dave and suddenly heard crying.

I started to cry it was just too much I didn’t know how long I had been in here but then he heard footsteps they got closer and closer and there he was a kid he remembered from his class. He got up and without saying a word just followed him to the exit “thanks,” and he walked home.

Evan woke on a sandy shore, which was obviously not where he had put his head the night before. He rose, and sand was everywhere; in his hair, his mouth and even in his eyelashes. His clothes were ripped, and so was his skin. Tiny, but extremely painful cuts are often the most painful kinds of open wounds. It didn’t help that sand wiggled its way into his cuts. Evan rose to his feet. He looked around to see a monstrous volcano before him, and the blue ocean behind him. He looked up only to see a bright blue sky with not even a single cloud. To his right, he saw a canal with strange contents inside. It wasn’t water. Without question, he began to move towards the island.

He was weaving his way through the jungle when he heard… laughter? Not the kind of laughter you would hear when something is funny, more like a sinister kind of laughter, and it sounded like a child. Sinister baby laughter. Throughout his journey, he had seen a variety of dolls. Doll heads, doll bodies, doll limbs, and even more dolls. There were different kinds of dolls, like vintage porcelain dolls or rag dolls. They were everywhere, above and below him. Then, Evan paused. He had found it odd that not once did he stop to question who, what, where, when, why and how. As if he was no longer in control, he kept moving through the thick jungle, ignoring the laughter. At one point, he heard something that could be considered as a low growl. He turned around, nothing. Once he was facing forward again, he saw a giant tree, and this tree was filled, top to bottom, with dolls. Old dolls, new dolls, girl dolls, boy dolls. There was even a doll in a pineapple costume. The evil snickering had become louder now, and it echoed. All of a sudden, the dolls had begun to fall. It was almost like he couldn't scream, or move. Frozen in fear, the dolls started to stand up. Evans' reaction was slower than a snail, but without warning the dolls started to lunge at him. They toppled over him, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t call for help. The mix of laughter and screams, the sound of the few glass dolls clunking against each other, and the weight of the dolls was enough to suffocate him.

And then it was over.

He was sitting in the very same bed he had fallen asleep in. He was practically swimming in his own sweat, and he was panting heavily. His father, who was making breakfast in their miniature kitchen, looked at him with a hint of concern and said,

“You alright, son?”

“I had a nightmare…” Evan replied.

“It’s probably because of all the rocking on the cruise. Your seasickness probably caused your brain to think of some crazy stuff.”

Evan smiled at him. However, if you listened closely, you could hear the whispers, and the echoes of the sinister baby laughter.

Me and my friend Benji were exploring different countries looking for the best skate spots. We ended up at a sanatorium in Croatia after searching in other countries. We found a stair set of about 8. We cleaned it up and my friend Benji tried and fell. After the impact, it was like we awoke something. We both got chills and decided to explore the sanatorium. It looked like something from the Great Depression when everything sucked. We looked around in all the rooms until we eventually found over 20 bodies. I was trying to leave very hastily but my friend had other plans. He decided to walk into the room and found one still breathing like they were stabbed only minutes before. We heard footsteps nearby and we had to run. We both thought that was it and we were dead. We saw the killer and we ran for our lives hoping that we’d make it out alive. We found something to block him with and made some distance. We just made it out of the building and ran to the nearest city. From that day forward we have never told anyone what we saw.

We walked further into the island and the pit in my stomach only got deeper. I look around at all the dolls staring into my soul as Briana is perfectly content.
“Do you feel something..wrong? About this place?” I ask anxiously.
“Well, yeah. But it’s also really cool.” She says confidently. Really cool? I’m definitely not feeling that way.

Walking through, looking at all the dolls, I start to hear something in the water. The splashing in the water gets louder and louder until I hear an ear-shattering scream. I turn around as fast as I can and see a girl drowning. I sprint towards her to help her and then she disappears.

“Avalon!? What are you doing?” Briana stops in her tracks and looks at me in worry.
“There was a.. a girl!” I look around frantically as if she’s gonna be here.
“Woah, guess this island is haunted.” She laughs
I pant, trying to recover from the previous scare. I stand myself up and shake off what just happened.

Walking away, I hear a faint “Help.”

“Trick or treat!,” I hear kids say. It is Halloween night. My friends, Tessa, Jack, and I are walking through our neighborhood in New Orleans with bags full of candy. I am dressed up as a mummy, Tessa is a witch, and Jack's a zombie. We start to get bored and because our bags are already full of candy, we wander off.

After walking for about ten minutes, we come across a really dark area. We see a sign that reads, “Six Flags, New Orleans was an amusement park that got hit by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It has not been rebuilt since and it never will. Enter at your own risk.” Jack and Tessa suggest we should go inside the fence to look around. I want to go back home and forget about this. Apparently, that is not an option. We walk along the fence for a while, and we finally find a gate. We quickly realize it is locked up. Tessa and Jack are so eager to get inside, so we climb the fence. It is very rusty and sketchy. As soon as our feet touch the ground, trees begin to rustle. Even worse, the carts on the roller coasters start going back and forth. The horses on the merry-go-round start spinning. Jack and I scream in terror. Tessa, on the other hand, continues walking. We follow. Dust begins to fall and we hear whispers. It sounds like someone is cursing us.

“Run!” I say.

“Over there,” Tessa points to the fence. We start running towards the fence. My mummy wrap gets stuck to the fence. Tessa and Jack pull as hard as they possibly can. Finally, I am free. We climb over. I hear Tessa and Jack’s breathing as we sprint back towards the neighborhood. We find our parents and run towards them.

“Where have you been? We’ve been worried sick!” Says our parents.

“There was a fence…things moving…whispers…trees…dust,” we explain. Our parents look confused.

“Go to bed and we can talk in the morning,” they say.

Still, we do not know what that curse will do to us.

It was late at night so dark that it looked like we were in the middle of space, and we were on our way to film a documentary about wild bears. We were all talking about our last documentary Elk Mating Season… then we see a mysterious white cloak in the middle of the road, Arnold swerves the black and blue Jeep off the road into a massive oak tree. Arnold, who insisted on not wearing a seat belt, flew out the windshield and was impaled by a sharp branch and Jim got a concussion and was knocked unconscious. We pick up Jim and look for shelter. When we are walking down the road about half a mile in I say “ What happened to the figure, now that I think about it when we got out of the car we didn’t see the white figure at all. Dray you go run back to the car and check it out, see if you can find any clue to what might be going on”.

I ran as hard as I could trying to see what happened to the man in white. Did I hit him, did he run away, no he couldn’t run away that fast. I got to the Jeep and looked for what might have happened to him. Then I turned back to the Jeep and screamed.

I hear Drays scream, I decided that I have to leave Jim “ he should be fine right”? I say to myself. I guess I have no choice. I fully sprinted half a mile or so, I ran faster than I ever have before… ”Dray are you ok”? I ask with his face looking so pail it looks like he is a ghost.

“Lo-lo-look up, where is Arnold? I thought we left him here because he was dead”. All I see is a head with a white cloth tied across the eyes stabbed on the same branch that he was impaled by, blood dripping like a faucet then I look over.  What does that bloody message say?… The blood runs down the tree in bold letters it says” YOU ARE ALL GOING TO DIE LIKE YOUR FRIENDS DID BEFORE YOU.!!!!!

Friends?! I thought that only Arnold died… oh no!!! JIM! “You left him alone Brody, why did you leave him alone”?

“Well I heard you scream and I thought you were in trouble. So I took my chances and ran to get you”!

“Well you shouldn’t have Brody you know there’s bears in the forest”!

“Obviously it wasn’t bears who killed him it was someone or something else, bears can’t write”!

“But what if they can Brody this could be the discovery of a lifetime, writing bears, did you bring the camera”?

“No we just crashed the car”.

“Oh right I will run ba-“

“No we will go together”. Dray said

“ Fine we need to hurry though, we need to find shelter.

As they jogged back they grabbed the camera and started filming.

“Ok we just saw the craziest thing first we got in a car crash and one of our squad members died and another got knocked unconscious. Then we dragged the unconscious one along the road”.

We stop filming, we see the figure again. It was creeping, creeping, creeping every closer by the minute.

We scream and sprint, dropping the camera. Up ahead we see a church with boarded up windows.

We break inside and find cloaked figures all around and see wax dripping from body’s stuck to the walls. One of them is Jim and another is decapitated. It was our crew.

Suddenly Dray falls to the floor with a hollow thud. A white cloaked man backs away into the shadows. I looked down and saw Drays mauled body with a knife in his stomach. I scream trying to get out, I run to the door, they won’t open, I punch and kick them… nothing. All I hear is creaking floor boards… then, WHAM I get clonked on the head and get knocked unconscious. I wake up minutes later and the white figures are blurry. They start chanting something and I realize what they are doing. I try to fight back but I'm strapped down. I look up and see a  gnarled face of the white figures then I look down I see a huge pot of wax. I scream louder than ever before just hoping someone will hear.

But of course no one does. I am thrown… splash!

The end

“Finally here,” my dad said as we all walked through the door. It was our yearly family vacation and my mom chose Maui Hawaii. As I looked around at the fancy resort I sighed. The room was nice, and the beach was amazing but all my family wanted to do was sit by the pool.

“I’m going to go for a walk,” I said.

“Oh no, you don't!” Replied my mom

“Why not!?”

“We don’t want a repeat of Chicago”

“Fine,” I said as I took my bags into an empty bedroom.

I sat down on the bed and stared out the big window. It was everything you would expect from Hawaii. Palm trees, chickens, and the ocean, but one thing stood out more than the others. An abandoned building behind some trees. It looked old and broken down as if no one had been there in decades.

“We have to go to the store for the luau tomorrow, want to come?” My mom called

“I think I’ll stay here” I replied

“Ok but no leaving”

“Sounds good,” I said waiting to hear the door shut. And then they were gone. I took one last look at the building in the woods and took off. “It’s not like anything will happen, ” I said to myself.

As I walked through the dense humid forest a breeze blew down my spine giving me chills. Soon I arrived at the large, crumbled runes. “Old Maui High” read a fallen sign. “Seems interesting,” I thought to myself. However, as soon as I stepped into the torn structure a loud cry surrounded me. “Who’s there!?” I exclaimed. But the cry continued not answering the question. I started walking towards the cry when suddenly my throat felt like it was closing and the cries turned into a loud roaring laugh. I didn’t know what was happening or what to do so I started running back into the woods. As I stumbled and slipped gasping for air the feeling released. I stared at the building still in shock but now I was afraid of it. Then I jumped to my feet and started running. Tears flew off my cheek, my mind in a knot.

As I neared the edge of the forest I finally stopped running. My heart pounded and my mind raced with so many questions. I looked at the parking lot to see our car was still gone. I took a breath of relief and started walking inside and to my room.

“We’re home Cora! Come help put away the groceries” my mom said

“Coming” I replied

But something caught my eye out the window, a little girl in a raggedy dress. I stared at her close in confusion and fright when suddenly my mom burst through the door.

“Are you coming? We don’t have all day”

“Yes coming”

“Why do you have dirt all over your face?”

“Oh nothing” I replied while walking out my door, but when I looked back the girl was gone.
