The House Next Door

Thursday 5th December 2013

Today was the day, the day we have to go and look inside the house next door. I never thought this day would come and I was hoping this day would never come.

If you don’t know but the house next door is the most spookiest, creepiest and the most “ you never want to go in that house”. It is horribly. I have tried to explain to her about the house but she didn't want to hear it. She said that we need a new house and that next door would be great. She said we needed a project. So today is the day we all have to go over and have a look. Luckily, I was allowed to invite some friends over so I won’t be so alone. I invited Emily, Caitlin and Toby. They are all good friends of mine so I thought for the most scariest bit of my life they could be there for me. But they are sort of weird. Well to start with Emily is obsessed about how her makeup is and doesn't pay much. Caitlin is so smart. The lowest level she is in is with the kids at college that are 15. And Toby, well he is a boy so he is weird anyway.

They arrived just in time for lunch. After lunch we all walked over to the house

and stared at it for a bit before going to the front door and opening the door. The door creaked something terribly.As we took our first steps into the house the floor boards stared to creack with every step, the shadows lomed even more then what they would on our street at night. There were cobwebs everywhere you looked and mice scattered up and down the walls. It was really dark in there so I was glad that I hadn’t brought my torch for nothing. I flicked it on and started to wander around the place. Emily, Caitlin and toby were right beside me. “ well this will be a bit more work than I expected” said my very dazzled mum.

We were standing in the lounge. I started to walk around and walked into the kitchen. I was terrified, it was disgusting. There was mold everywhere, there was rat poop on everything and it smelled like something had died in there. We all ran out of the room and decide to go up stairs. Up stairs wasn’t much better. There were birds making nests and some bats in the corner and there was a smell that was a bit weird but I didn’t know what it was. We went into a bedroom and started to have a look. There were pink walls that had the pattern of flowers on them. There was a little desk blue desk on it’s side but apart from that there was nothing it the room.

We wandered through to the room opposite the pink bedroom. This room had white walls and had nothing in it. We were about to leave when we heard the most scariest sound. There was a faint, sort of scratchy voice calling our names.

We all screamed and ran down stairs to find my mum but we couldn’t find her anywhere. She wouldn’t of gone home yet and most certainly not without us,would she? Suddenly, there was a big bang from the bedroom with pink wallpaper. Then came a slow shuffle coming from the top of the stairs. We all ran into the kitchen and shut the door and locked it. We could hear it in the lounge now and it was the most scared in my life. Then it stopped and everything was silent.

After a bit we opened the door and went out to have a look. The coast seemed to be clear. Then we heard knocking from the room on the opposite side of the wall. Suddenly, something that looked something like mum but at the same time not came out from behind the door and started chasing us. Emily had no idea was going on and said stuff like “ i feel like chocolate” and “ what was that oh never mind it was just my high heel. See what I told you, she doesn’t pay much attention. The thing that looked like mum had sliver dribbling down her face, blood stained clothes and completely black eyes. The thing that was chasing us chased us all around the house and as we came back into the lounge Emily said “ Oh my gosh oh my gosh!! ” I think she is finally releasing what is going on” said Caitlin. “What” said Toby. “ My makeup is smudged my makeup is smudged!!” “Or not” said Toby “ RUN”

Then, Emily wanting to stop and put on her makeup, went and yelled at the thing that sort of looked like mum “ GET OUT OF HERE YOU BASTARD!!” screamed Emily and with that the thing disappeared but reappeared behind me and said “BOOO”. “NOW” screamed Emily.

The thing disappeared to leave Emily to do her makeup. See, I told you she was helpful sometimes. Mum came up from the basement I didn’t know was there and asked what all the racket was.

After 2 months we are now living  in the house that I almost had a heart attack in.I love it here. It is such a great house to live in.But I sometimes have nightmares about what happened. But I still love it here.

So I will see you guys soon because I am going to do some more writing. I do hope you liked this story. See you.
