The Horror

By: Veerendra Balchand7-332

It was a dark and stormy night. The wind was fierce and it made the tree hit wall of my house. The moonlight was strong and shining. I lay there in my bed thinking about the story of the Horror I heard in school today.

It is said that a killer named the Horror comes out every Halloween and at midnight and kills little kids who go out to trick or treat. He has never been caught even though, he has killed a total of 29 kids. Then suddenly, “Bang”, the lightning cracked the crisp air. I jumped up out of my bed and ran to close the window. Then I went to sleep.

I woke up in excitement. It was Halloween. Today was no school. It wasn’t too cold or too hot outside. It was the perfect temperature outside to go trick or treating. I went down to brush my teeth and take a shower.

I After I finished I went up to my room and changed into my costume. I am going to be a wizard, Harry Potter, this Halloween. I go to the living room and watch TV until it was time to go trick or treating.

“Ding, Ding, Dong”, the clock rang at 6:00. This is the signal for me to go start trick or treating. As I was about to step out the door, I remembered the story of the Horror. Then I thought to myself that he can’t be real and the story is just a Halloween joke. When I got outside the sun was setting and there were kids going from door to door to collect candy. I joined them and also collected candy.

Now it was dark outside and I was heading home. I saw something move in the distant bush. It was a black hooded figure that moved swiftly. I was just about to go into my yard and I was pushed to the side by a black hooded figure. I turned around and saw a white mask covering the face of the black hooded figure.

He took out a knife and I ran to the backyard. I jumped over the fence ran into the neighbor’s backyard. I went around again and the guy was gone. I went into my house and locked the door. I didn’t tell anybody what happened and went to bed.

It was dark now in my room, everybody was sleeping, but I was still awake. I was laying there in my bed thinking about what happened and wondered who the guy behind the mask was. I was sweating like a pig so I decided to go down to the bathroom.

I was walking down the stairs and I heard a knock on the window. I ignored it and went to the bathroom. When I was in the bathroom I opened the cabinet with the mirror that is on top of the sink. When I closed the cabinet door, I saw the mask of the guy who tried to kill me. I turned around and saw him, then ran out the bathroom. He ran after me with his knife.

I went down to the basement and he followed me, obviously. I went and grabbed one of the metal poles that were there. I turned around and swung it everywhere trying to defend myself. I hit him in the head and he fell to the floor. I then took his knife and stabbed it in his chest with all my force. He died and I ran away.
