The Story of No Living

By Jeremy Larabee

            The moon was high in the sky and it’s darker than ever. The wind was howling and three best friends were trick or treating. They came to a weird old house that had rumors of it being haunted.  Another rumor was that the house was alive. An 11 year old was the oldest and was saying they should go on the porch and knock. But the littlest boy said no. The middle age boy did not care to go in or not. They do rock, paper, scissors. Surprisingly the biggest boy won the game that night, so they went up the sidewalk, there was thunder and lighting from no were. It was loud and crackly. So the three boys knocked on the door. All a sudden the door opened all by its self.

            All three boys tiptoe in saying, “Hello is any body home?”  As they tiptoe in the house they hear a squeaking of someone walking on loose wood. Suddenly a grandfather clock goes off and the boys realize it’s twelve, o clock. As the three boys all jump, two ghosts come chasing them because they were in there house. The three boys run to separate corners. Only the oldest boy realizes the two eyes that are looking at them and the oldest boy says, “Look at that up there two eyes!”  The middle boy said, “If there were two eyes I would have seen them.” They notice the ghosts coming toured them. As the two ghosts chase them so the boys run in the kitchen.

            As they run in the kitchen they hear music. Three skeletons are dancing to the music. The oldest boy looks up and hears someone whispering, “Help me!” He hears someone stomping as will. As soon as the oldest boy hears the stuff he sees the eyes again. There is a guy playing music on a piano. All three boys look around and seen fish, food, and bottled food. They try to tiptoe out but the skeletons all twirl around and see them and chase them out the kitchen. So they get done chasing them and they go back and dance to the music. All three boys run down the basement stairs and hear a ghost laughing at them. So the little boy jumps in a trash can so scared he is shaking the can. The two other boys peek through a door and see 4 mad scientists, two bates, a spider, a monkey, and some bones on the ground. The middle boy starts to push because he can’t see over the oldest boy. So the boy fall though the door and fall on the floor and hears a noise like a robot saying, “Welcome to the cave of no return!” The 2 boys said, “Hi can you help us we need to get out this place?” The four scientist start to chase them saying,” Saying out of our laboratory. The 2 boys ran screaming out the door out side.

             The boys ran yelling “mommy” with all the monsters chasing them off the porch in to the dark. They hear something laughing at them so the look around and notice that the littlest boy that was trick or treating with them is gone and no where to be found. All they see are trees and dark clouds with the dark moon. There were only sounds of a wolf howling at the full moon and the wind whistling, with the music coming from the house. The boy was no where to be seen or heard of again.
