The Old House.
“Come on, James! Don’t be a chicken.” Peter started to do a clucking sound and moved his arms up and down like some mad, demented chicken.
“No! You know mum said not to go near that house. She said bad things have happened in there.”
“Don’t be daft. All mums say that stuff. No one’s lived there in years. It will be an adventure, James. We might even find some gold coins and become millionaires,” Peter boasted. James pondered this for a while and changed his mind at the thought of becoming rich. Reluctantly he joined Peter in the front garden and the two boys crept up to the front door. The door was ajar and Peter pushed it further open. They silently walked inside…
As Peter and James entered the house…BOOM! The front door slammed after them. Now they knew there was no way out.
James cried,” I told you Peter! Now look where you got us at.”
Peter said,” Calm down…Let’s just explore the place, maybe there is another exit?”
Both of them walked to explore the mysterious house….” AHHH!!” The boys stared at each other with shock and terror in their eyes. Bones and dead bodies were scattered across the floor of the house.
“Peter! What do we do now!!!” James screamed with horror in his heart.
Peter said, “I don’t know…What do we do now? Come on let’s just-“
Suddenly a rumbling could be heard,” Peter…. Who’s that…?
