The New House

My final events

Chapter 5

I am speechless.

How did the blood and the skull get in my door????

They weren't there when I walked in, at least I think.

***

Later when I'm doing my homework, I hear a key go into the door and it open.

Immediately I stay frozen in place because I think that it's another haunt.

"Hi hailey, were home!"

Yesssssss it's my parents so I can tell them what happened today.

"Mom, dad you probably won't believe me but you have to this stuff has been happening for the past few days."

"Sure, hailey we always believe you. What's wrong?"

Yeah. Ok. I think to myself.

I'm not sure where to start, and I'm so anxious to tell them that my words come out stuttered and jumbled.

"Well, ffffirst, I saw sssomeoone looing a me tru tthe wwwwwindow and then, when I sttarted unpackking I accidently

Cut mmyyself beccausse mmy drawer wasss packed wwithh knives! Then,

On myy firsst dayy at school, whenn I waas wallkkinng hoomme, alllll off thee otthher kiidss weere starring at me withh ttheiir eyes yelloww. Finally, after I rann innsidddde, (and now my eyes start to water) I rrreealized tthat my dooorrrr wass cloakedd withh redd bloodd, and hadd a skull on topp."

My parents look at eachother and suddenly, I feel like they might understand.

But nope.

My father glares at me and says "HAILEY I TOLD YOU TO STOP

LYING SO ENOUH OF THIS NONSENSE, GO UPSTAIRS AND GO TO BED!!!"

Now, the waterfalls break the dams and tears come streaming down my face as I run upstairs.

I dunno how but eventually I cry myself to sleep.

Then I wake up to it.

Loud and shrill it's a scream.

And it's my mothers.

I get up and spring down stairs and find my parents nowhere and no sign of them.

Then to calm down, I look outside to see the swingset that always calms me down.

It did, but only a little because on one swing, the same hooded figure that looked at me on my first day here is swinging.

Suddenly it sees me and hovers toward the door (yes, hovers)

I lose sight of it and now I become very frightened because I think that's what killed my parents.

And I am it's next target.

I turn and run upstairs but I bump into something.

It's tall.

It has a dark cloak.

But it has no head, sorta like the headless horseman.

And that's when I see the knife dripping with blood that it has griped in its hand.

It says "I wanted you" and then the he thrusts the knife forward.

And everything goes black.
