Bob's POV

Three hours earlier...

   They day was done and I was glad to be out of work. We had a Halloween dress up day. I chose to be a vampire. There were people dressed up like werewolves, zombies, and even a clown. It reminded me of my childhood nightmare, Mr. Baldo. I got in my car and started driving home. When I got to Cornwallis street, I stopped to look in front of me. "What the heck is that?" I said, out loud. I walked out of my car and into the road. It looked like a person lying on the road. I felt kind of embarrassed to be dressed like a vampire. I mean, it was Halloween.

   As I got closer, I was terrified to see what it was. This was another nightmare. Another nightmare of Mr. Baldo. The creepy clown started moving towards me slowly. As I took a step backwards, I tripped on a rock and fell to the ground. "Oh, that must have hurt didn't it?" Mr. Baldo said. "S-stop. Go away!" I say, back at him. I was scared out of my mind. The clown lowers his smile and steps forward. He walks faster and faster, until he's right above me. He looks at me with his yellow eyes. I felt this evil, sharp pain rush through me. I felt kind of dizzy. I wasn't sure if I was even asleep or awake. I tried to yell for help, but nothing came out of my mouth. All I remember is being dragged through this slimy tree.

   When I woke up, I was in my house. It wasn't the same though. It was dark and cold everywhere, just like what Will said when he had those episodes. "Joyce," I start yelling. "Joyce!"
