Essay on spooky place
Answers
My friend Jack and I decided to find out once and for all if what people said was true. So one evening, we bravely entered the house and prepared to spend the night there. We brought along a powerful torchlight, two sleeping-bags, some food and drinks, and a portable stereo set.
The early part of the night was no trouble at all. We sat on our sleeping-bags and listened to our favourite music.
Twelve midnight came. We felt a bit sleepy. So we switched off the stereo set and crawled into our sleeping-bags. However sleep was impossible. There seemed to be a heavy atmosphere hanging around us. The darkness was oppressive and there was a strange soft whiningnoise coming from upstairs.
We dared not go up to investigate the noise. So we lay quietly in our sleeping-bags and hoped that the noise would go away. But it would not go away.
Actually it got louder and louder. Then it sounded like someone moaning. Jack hurried out of his sleeping-bags and switched on the torchlight. We could see nothing except the walls of the empty living room we were in.
Suddenly there was a loud crash from upstairs and the moans turned to screams. We screamed too and ran out of the house as fast as we could, leaving behind everything that we had brought. The hair on the back of my head stood on end for hours afterwards.
We never dared to go back into the house, not even in the daytime. My uncle had to go and retrieve the things we had left behind there.
My friend's Basement Cellar:
It was one of my friend's birthday and we all friends were both excited and scared because of the house party. My friend's house is believed to be haunted, especially the dark cellar in the back corner of his basement sends chills down my spine whenever I think about that incident. It was on a summer holiday, two years before. My friend's parents had an important function to attend to, so I volunteered to accompany him till they return.
As soon as his parents left, we closed our textbooks and got ready to play. In the middle of our game we both heard a moaning sound from the basement cellar. After gaining courage, we both started to move towards the basement. As we walked towards the basement, we felt that the air surrounding us went still.
The door to the cellar was half open. Hesitantly I reached my hand out to push the door to open fully and slowly crept my way inside followed by my friend. We saw many unwanted stuffs dumped over there and our eyes fell on a doll that looked so sad and pained. As we moved closer we noticed that the doll blinked it's eyes. We stood speechless. As we were running out of thoughts, we failed to see that the doll is moving towards us.
We heard a feeble yet strong voice from behind us telling "Hello Children". Frightened, we screamed in the highest pitch and ran as fast as we can in the direction of the door. As soon as we came out, we shut the door tightly and ran out of the house. We were waiting in the neighbour home till his parents came back. It was that day that I decided that I will never step-in in his house no matter what!
