Little Billy rushed into his parents room. He quickly crawled between them. His mother looked at him alarmed. "What's wrong Billy?" The boy looked at mother. " There is a scary woman in my room." His father was annoyed. "And what does this woman look like?" Billy described the woman. "She's real skinny and has long black hair! And she has red eyes!" Billy's father laughed. "Is that so? Well we will just have to go and investigate this." He took Billy by the hand and led the boy back to his room. Billy's father then flung open the door and turn on the light.
