The Halloween Night

Jane's Point of view

"Why did we enter this godforsaken place" I whispered to myself while crying and calling for help.

"Jane snap out of!". Sam woke me up from my daydream. Today is Halloween and me and my friends decided that we will go to a Halloween party. "I'm awake, stop being such a jerk" I said to Sam and lightly punched him in the arm. He is one of my best friends. We have a lot in common and we get along well. He likes to tease me because I daydream all the time. "Guys, stop fighting and start dressing up!" said Penny. She is the geek of our group. She is just crazy about Halloween. This year she is going to be dressed up as Sherlock Holmes. We dressed up in our costumes and went to Sam's car.

We drove to Maya's house to pick her up. She came out dressed pretty as usual. She was dressed in a sexy nurse. "Looking hot tonight" said Sam when she opened the car door. "Shut up!" she said laughing. After that we drove to Eric's house. We picket him up as well. When the whole crew was in the car, we started searching for the club where the party was about to go down.

Sam drove us as the navigation said and we came to an old house. It was decorated in Halloween style. "Is this the place?" Eric asked Sam. "Navigation says so. We can go knock on the door and see for ourselves." We got out of the car and we started walking to the entrance of the house. Next to the path we were walking on, was a large tree. It didn't have any leaves left, and it looked like it's very old. Than I saw a paper hanging on that same tree. I walked near it and it was a flyer. There was a picture of an old house and under the picture was a text that said come in if you dare. It had an address of the house too."Hey, guys! Stop for a minute. Come here, you got to see this!" I screamed after them. They came to me and Penny really liked the flyer: "Why don't we go check this place out? It seems very spooky... And fun!" "Great idea. I didn't want to go to that stupid party anyways." said Eric. I wasn't so sure if this is such a good idea. That place gave me the creeps. But we went there anyway. The house was located out of the city. Penny was way too excited about this house. By the looks of it, it was very old and it was falling apart.

"We should check it out!" Penny said. Me and Maya weren't so sure about it, but Sam and Eric convinced us to go with them. While we were walking to the entrance of the house, Sam was trying to scare me with a story of an old house.
It's an urban legend that people were telling in our town. It's about a rich family that lived in a big house. One Halloween night a ghost possessed the daughter (8 years old) of the family and she killed her parents with a kitchen knife. Her brother tried to escape but she chased him until he couldn't run anymore. She stitched his lips together and cut his eyes off. Some people say that the ghost of the daughter and her brother still haunt that house and that they will kill anybody who dares to enter the house. I didn't believe in stories anymore. I mean we were 17 years old after all.

Eric knocked on the door. We waited for a while, but nobody came to open the door. Than the door suddenly opened and a huge amount of dust came out of the house. "I guess nobody lives here huh? Maybe this is the old house from that urban legend?" said Sam. I got a little scared and he started laughing. "It's just a story for little kids. Why are you so scared?" Penny tried to calm me down. "I'm not scared!" I yelled at them and walked into the house. "See?! It's just a regular house and I'm not scared of it!" I yelled even louder. They followed me in. Sam and Penny were still laughing. After we all got in, the door closed by itself. "What was that?" Maya said. She was scared and she tried to open the door but they
wouldn't open. We were trapped.
