Haunted House in the Woods

Chapter 3

Dipper and Mabel walked into the family room and sat on the floor. "Dippjer what are you-" Dipper pulled his journal out from his vest. "Oh! The journal!" He flipped through some pages and found a page on haunted houses. "A-ha! Found it!" Mabel looked over to see the page too. "Does it say anything about how to get out of here?" Dipper skimmed the page but he didn't see anything about how to get out. "No, it just says to avoid them." Mabel thought for a moment and got an idea. "Dipper, maybe you have to do the lamby lamby dance again!" "Mabel, not all ghosts are like Ma and Pa. The ghost here probably won't let us go after I do some silly dance."

Mabel sighed. "What does the journal say about ghosts?" Dipper pointed to a section in the book about ghosts. "Ghosts can only be trapped in a silver mirror. But, we don't even know where the ghost is and we don't have a silver mirror."

They heard laughter again but it didn't sound like the laughter that they had heard earlier. The laughter sounded familiar. Wait, was that... "BILL?!" The twins both said in unison. There was a flash of light and then Bill appeared. "HA HA HA! Oh man, that was hilarious!" Dipper and Mabel frowned, looked at each other and then back at Bill. "What are you talking about?" Bill floated over to Dipper and placed his hand on his shoulder. "Well, you see, none of this is real!" Mabel blinked. "What?" Bill floated over to Mabel. "I was messing with you! This whole time!" Dipper crossed his arms. "What do you mean?" Bill's cane appeared in his left hand and he started to twist it around. "Yesterday I decided to mess with you two. So, right now I'm invading your dreams! It all started when you were walking in the woods."

Mabel frowned. "Why would you do that?!" "Because its fun!" Dipper walked up to Bill. "So you're telling us all of this is just a dream?!" Bill stopped swinging his cane and it vanished. "Yes!" Mabel sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "Bill, you had us scared." "Oh-ho-ho! I DEFINITELY had YOU scared, Shooting Star!" Dipper dropped his shoulders. "Bill, can you just leave so we can wake up?" "Sure thing, Pine Tree! REALITY IS AN ILLUSION, THE UNIVERSE IS A HOLOGRAM!!! BUY GOLD, BYE!!!"

There was a flash of white light. Dipper and Mabel woke up and sat up in their beds. Mabel frowned and crossed her arms. "Bill is a jerk!" Dipper nodded. "Yeah, but you've got to admit, he did have you pretty scared. Haha!" Mabel rolled her eyes and smiled. "Yeah yeah! I'm hungry. Let's go get some breakfast."

The twins walked into the kitchen and sat at the table while Grunkle Stan made some pancakes. "Mornin' kids! Want some breakfast?" Mabel smiled. "Yeah, I'm hungry!" Dipper nodded. "As long as its not yellow or triangle. I am not in the mood for yellow triangles." Grunkle Stan turned around and showed Dipper and Mabel the triangle shapped pancakes he had made on two separate plates. "But, I made these." "WHY?!" The twins both yelled in unison.

And you thought the place was haunted! Haha! Bill! So, did you like this? Let me know! CATCH YA ON THE FLIP SIDE!!!
