"Come on Frank" said Jim. "I'm coming, I'm coming" said Frank. Jim and Frank just got off the bus. They had to go the long way because of construction down the street. "I'll race you home," said Jim. "You're on," replied Frank. So they raced. Jim was in the lead until he turned the corner and stopped. Frank came around the corner, and knocked over Jim, causing them both to fall to the ground. "Why did you stop?" asked Frank. Jim pointed his finger in horror. "Look," he said. In front of them was West Creek Manor, a place long since forgotten.

Frank knew that Jim was terrified of the old creepy house. So being the brat that he is he said, "I dare you to go in." Jim turned to Frank with a look of horror on his face. "What did you say?" Jim asked, with the goose bumps forming on his arm. "You heard me. I dare you to go in." "Ha ha, very funny," Jim said with a slight quiver in his voice. "What's that?" "What?" asked Jim. "Nothing, I just thought I heard a bak bak bak chicken!" "Stop it, Frank! Fine, I'll go in. But only if you come with me." "What did you say?" asked Frank, shocked. There was a slight pause and Jim looked at Frank with a look that said, 'If you don't, I don't.' "Fine," Frank replied

As Frank opens the gate, a hot gust of wind blowes across Jims face. Like they just opened the gates of hell, Jim takes a step back. "Oh stop faking come on you scardy cat" said Frank. "I dont think this is a good idea" said Jim. " Fine you can stand out here all alone well I look inside". Frank sighed and continued to the door. Frank reached for the handel and shoke it "Locked" said Frank. "oh well, guess we well have to go home" said Jim releaved. "hey an opened window" said Frank.

Both boys shimmed through the window, and droped off their back packs. They contiued through the hallways and went in to every room. once they came across a room that was bright pink, an had flowers on the walls. there were dolls on a shelf in the room, however, all of there head were gone. "This room must have belonged to a little girl", they continued through the house, nothing, but what did they expect ll that was there were mice, rochast, and broken glass. then they came to the master bedroom they searched the whle room and then.

"Look What i found" under the bed was a secret hatch, "wow" said Jim. Frank grabed the handle and opened the hatch. "Its pitch black down there" said Jim not wanting to go down. "Its getting late we should go" said Jim. "Alright lets go" but just as they were about to reach the door the walls creeked and moaned. then they started moving closer and closer, the walls were going to crush them.

"What are we going to do" asked Jim practiclly wetting himself. "The only thing we can do" They jumped into the dark hatch just in time. They hit the ground hard, "Jim, Jim wake up" Frank said trying to wake him up. When they fell Jim had been knocked out cold by the fall, he got up and the hallway before them started lighting up. they continued on "well we can go back that way" said Frank nervously. They entered a large room with a light at the other end of the room. "Look a way out" shouted Jim, he ran for the light. "NO WAIT" screamed Frank, then a wall slambed down seperating the two boys.More walls started moving pushing the boys in to rooms.
