Garrett


             On Halloween a group of boys wanted to go to the house at the corner. It was an old brown house that no one has been in since 1913.  No one has ever seen any body go in or come out. The people on the street never knew if anybody lived in the house. The last person who lived there moved because they thought there were ghosts.
             That night on October 31, at 12 am they went to the house and ran inside. Once they got inside. The door slammed behind them. There was spider webs and dirt all over the place. There was scratch marks all over the floors. They checked out the place as If it was a robbery.
             Once the got up stairs, they found a skeleton sitting in a chair. After that they got scared and ran down stairs and went for the door. The only thing... The door wouldn't open. So they ran in the room closest to them. While they were in there they tried calling their parents and the police. The lines for the phone wouldn't go through. They couldn't make a call.
            After about a half hour searching for a way out, they went into the basement where they found an axe with blood stains tucked in a corner. They grabbed that and ran for the door. As the got to the door force on the axe that made it fly back to the wall. It was a ghost of the skeleton up stairs that was killed with the axe in the basement.

  1. Reminds me a lot of American Horror Story: Murder House, so I automatically would enjoy to hear more about this, and how it would be similar/differentiated from it :) Good job!

  2. Interesting story! I like the twist at the end where the ax flies back. It would've been even better with more gory detail. Good job!

  3. This piece reminded me of that one Disney movie, "Under-wraps," I was waiting for the characters to encounter something similar, like a mummy popping out of nowhere. I think that this is a good idea, however it could be expanded a little more. I wanted more story and cause and effect. I loved the whole isolated vibe of no one being in the house since 1913. It was creepy, but needs more development. Good job though! :D

  4. Dang! lol I thought they were gunna get out and use the axe to open the door; that was a great twist though! The entire time I felt like I was there with them. Your imagery was great.

  5. First of all, thank you for sharing your work. Second, you should proof read your work to eliminate the grammar errors. Lastly, go all out on the imagery. It'll elevate your work. :)

  6. I liked the detail in the beginning i would just say keep that going all the way through. I loved that your taking a traditional story but making the details come together more. i would say just switch it up a tiny bit. other than that this was wonderful keep working diligently.

  16. I liked the suspense and the details of the story. I think that if you improved on the grammar aspects then the piece would be a lot better. Sometimes I got confused because you used the word 'the' instead of 'they', but good job! Keep writing!

  17. I like how you use very descriptive words. While I was reading I notice that I was picturing the scenes with those very descriptive words. Overall this is an adventurous story.

  19. I liked the story, but i feel as though it lacked detail. I feel like you kind of rushed the story a little, and didnt really emphasize the whole idea. But overall, it was a good story.

  24. This is nice try on horror story guy, if you keep up writing little stories like this, one day you will have yourself a little collection.

  25. I really enjoyed reading this!! To be honest I was a little disappointed that they didn't get out, but I guess not all stories have happy endings. Your writing is great, but don't be afraid to add more details. Also make sure to proof read to catch tiny errors.

  26. This story was really interesting but i did`nt really understand the end of it but other than that you did a great job.:)

  27. It was interesting. I enjoyed it. The only thing I would suggest is to add a little more detail to give the story a creepier feeling to it. Overall, good job.

  28. Interesting story! I liked the way how its worded and its simple
    Great job!!! :)

  29. You need more details and adjectives to make the story more interesting and spine chilling. If imagery was added to this piece you could get more out of the story. I like how the story ended kind of midterm where you didn't say what was going to happen next.

  30. Despite slight grammar errors, the story kept me interested due to the suspense. However, just a little more imagery would've made it really nice. Overall good read, nice job!

  31. Man this story was 2spooky4me, almost 3spooky5me. It reminded me of the ending to The Blair Wtich Project, well done.

  32. I can see someone is a horror movie buff! A little more detail and playing out of the action would be beneficial so the reader can be left in suspense. Fun concept!

  35. There are a few grammar errors in the story, lack of detail, and it could have been a little longer to make it more interesting. It was still unique and interesting, great job.

  41. Pretty scary horror story, nice job. It was a little slow for me in the beginning but as I kept reading the suspense was growing more. I liked how you didn't give hints on what would happen next.
    So what happens now to the kids?

  46. I like the unhappy ending. Although I don't enjoy discomfort, the change of direction makes me feel a bit pleased. Many Asian movies, cartoons, game stories have unhappy bitter endings. I guess i'ts just a personal preference. Sweet work though.

  59. Woah, that's a great horror story even though there were grammar errors and it was a good that you used to the five senses to create vivid images in our minds. Love the suspense of this story

    ReplyDelete
  60. That was good! I loved how you captured the essence of a horror story. You might want to consider combining sentences to create a flow of words (if that makes any sense), and maybe double-check on your punctuations to avoid fragments. Good read!

  68. Plot Twist: No breaking the door down today..

    Great Use of Dialect, from the first two paragraphs I was already hooked and intrigued to see what will happen, and then you juked the prediction that they would get out the house.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I like this story definitely spooky. The imagery is great! Only thing I would work on diction. If you got some good descriptive words in there it would be ready for publishing ;). Good job and keep up the work!

  70. Add more detail but still a good story, i also like that twist in the end (:

  71. Your piece somewhat reminded me of the animation film, Monster House when a group of boys also decided to explore into an abandoned house. The plot was interesting, but maybe adding more details to make your piece appeal to the reader's senses will make it even more interesting. Other than that, I enjoyed your horror story. (:

    ReplyDelete
  72. I wish this story continued. Great by the way I enjoyed the spookiness.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Scary stories are awesome and I really enjoyed yours and how you were able to tell such a complete story in a small piece. Nice job!

    ReplyDelete
  74. This is an interesting topic but it could have been improved with some detail, maybe explaining what makes it creepy and taking your time to explain the characters transition to different spots in the house. I also felt that you could have elaborated on the characters and there motive for entering. overall it needs some improvement but great start.

    ReplyDelete
  75. The horror really kept me interested throughout the story. i must admit that i may have defecated myself at the part where the door wouldn't open.

    ReplyDelete
