I look over at Ashlynn, she was just as scared. Then, I heard it again... Wait. "MOMMMMM!!" I yell just making sure she's not pulling a prank on me again. "WHAT IS IT HONEY??!!!" She runs down the stairs, her eyes open wide, she runs in and grabs us and immediately goes for the stairs.
"What. Is. Happening." Ashlynn says while starting to tear up. "I don't know, but we need to do something about it, and fast." My mom says calmly. "I'll call 911!!" I shout. "G-good I-I-idea, Lizz." Ashlynn says shivering of fear. I grab the phone, it's dead. I dash to the living room, great. That ones dead too, the only other one is downstairs. "Guys, all the phones are dead!! The only other one is... Downstairs..." "Lizzie, you have a phone!!" Exclaims my mom. "Right, I forgot!!
I pull out my phone from my pocket, %34. That's good enough. I quickly dial 911, they answer.
911 : Hello; 911. What's your issue?
Me : HI COME TO 1910 ROLA AVE. THERES SOMETHING WEIRD IN OUR BASEMENT AND OUR TREES GOT TPED, PLEASE HURRY!!!!!
911 : Okay, thank you for calling. We'll send someone over ASAP.
*BEEP*
"Okay, the police are on their way. Let's just hope they can do something about it." I say trying to calm everyone down. *PEW PEW, AWWWW!!!* I hear from downstairs. "Did you guys hear that?" Ashlynn questions confused. "Yeah, what was that?" We all start tip-toeing down the stairs. On the couch, my brother playing super Mario. "DUDE, GET UPSTAIRS, NOW!!!!" I scream. "Why?" My brother questions like nothing's going on. "JUST GO AND ILL EXPLAIN!!!" We all rush upstairs and hide under the couch. I explain to my brother what's happening. Just a few minutes after, the police get in. "HELLO?!" They yell. "WERE UNDER HERE!!" Ashlynn yells back. "Okay, we're going downstairs now. You guys stay there." The police say calmly. Everyone was silent after that, just patiently waiting for the police.
About half an hour later, it's 1:49 AM, my brother already fell asleep, so did Ashlynn. The police come back up, we all peek over the couch, their holding a human sized bag. I wake Ashlynn and my brother up. We all come out from under the couch, the police said it was a guy that was in costume, he somehow got into our house, and started haunting us. I'm so glad I called the police.
The police went out of the house, threw the guy in their car, and drove away. We all fell asleep after that, it was a scary night but at the same time, I had fun. (Sort of). Ashlynn stayed the next night, I promised her there would be no more people haunting us. And there weren't. The next day, Ashlynn's parents came, we all promised not to say a word to her parents about it.
