Festival of Fears

Haunted Hayride

Anya's POV

"What would you like to order" asked the clown that was clearly following us. "I would like a pizza" said Platon as he paid with his free money. "And how about you two" asked the clown. "I will take a pretzel" said Elias. "I will take a hot dog" I answered him knowing I didn't have to be bothered.

I just wanted him to make my food so I can leave. "I also want popcorn" said Elias. I looked at him since we were in a corn maze. "What it sounded good" he said as he paid for both of us. "What about you little lady" said the clown as he mentioned to Nadja. "I am good but thank you" she said.

"You aren't hungry" asked Platon. "No" said Nadja as she shook her head. "How are you not hungry" I asked her as I kept eating my hot dog. "We are going on a ride" she said as she shook her head. "We will be fine" we all said as we finished all of our food. "Ugh" she said knowing she is right.

We threw away our trash and went towards the entrance of the hayride. "Guys hurry up" I said as I was getting excited. A new person was sitting in the driver seat. The horse neighed as we got closer to the carriage. There was steps so we could sit on the top. I sat down and so did them once they joined me.

"This is the scariest ride of the park ever since we lost six victims" said the driver. "Wait six" asked Elias. "Don't worry it's nothing to be sacred of" he said with a dark laughter. Once he laughed we started to begin the hayride. We kept going down the trail around this side of the festival.

As we kept riding we saw a creature pop out of the ground in the hay fields. "There it is again" said Nadja as she grabbed onto Platon's arms. After a few seconds he went back into the ground as we let the hay field. We started to go along the trial that brought us to a house. We looked out to get a better view. There a whole new creature tried to grab at us.

"What is that" said Platon. We all freaked out at the sight before us. The monster disappeared into the ground without a trace. "Uh I don't know if I like this" I said nervously. Once we passed the first house we came to the second one and it was scarier. A girl with a dead eyes stood there in a white dress.

Once we passed the houses it started to sprinkle on us from the trees above. It wasn't rain but it was the sprinklers that hanged from tree to tree. "Look" said Elias as he pointed to a big tree that was filled with dolls blinking back down at us. "Those dolls are everywhere" said Elias as we passed by them.

Once we passed the tree we went into a creepy cave. I didn't like how dark it was and the words came right out of my mouth since I was scared. "Hold me" was all I said and I already had Elias wrap his arms around my waist. I didn't think he really did it and I didn't think I even said that to begin with.

I was happy that he still kept his arms wrapped around me as we continued through the dark. Suddenly the hayride stopped and a flash of light lit up the entire cave. From the light we saw a ghost go into the driver. We all screamed in fright. Elias held me closer to him as tightly as possible.

My hands gripped his arm in comfort. We all looked around frantically searching for the ghost. Then we heard "who wants to go on a ride." We looked to the driver and his head spun around as he looked at us with white eyes. His hands we're holding the rains to control the horse still.

We all screamed as he sped up. The horse took of sprinting out of the cave. Elias was holding my waist and the railing of the carriage. I grabbed onto the railing just like everyone else had. Platon and Nadja were holding on as tightly as possible as we kept going faster. My heart was beating way to fast.

We kept screaming as the driver kept laughing evilly. "What's happening" I asked Elias. "How did his voice change" asked Elias. "Why are we going so fast" asked Platon. "I'm scared" said Nadja. We we're all screaming unsure of what's going on. We got out of the cave and started following a trail like before.

We we're still going full speed as we tried to hang on tightly. We took a fast turn around the bend and I screamed since the carriage felt like it was going to tip over. "I don't feel so good anymore" said Elias and Platon. "I told you guys" said Nadja as she mentioned to them eating before the ride.

"Guys look" said Elias as he nodded towards the front. We looked pad the driver to find a dead end full of hay. "Stop the horse" cried Nadja as she was beginning to slide closer to Platon's chest. We all screamed as we got closer since this was out of control. Randomly in the last second the horse stopped. The driver dived into the hay bails.

We thought we we're all going to fly off but we all stayed in our seats. All of us sighed since we were all okay. "What happened to the driver" I asked since he was knocked off. We all looked to find him dusting himself off. The carriage stairs came down and we got off. The driver started to get back in his seat.

"Hope you guys come again for another ride" he said as if nothing just happened. We all looked at each other confused. He threw us a scare token and we were on our way. "What the actual fuck just happened" I said aloud. "Don't question it" all three of them said as we walked to the exit.
