[ A - All Readers ]
In an old house that was abandoned in a dark neighborhood, it was
around fall time and Halloween was coming up, pretty soon a young
boy was going to live there with his sisters and two parents. The
boy's name was Brandon. He was a rather shy thirteen year old who
was a bit of a loner.
He had two older sisters one he was very close with, was named
Carly who was seventeen years old and she was a rather cheerful
girl. She wasn't interested in having a relationship or having many
friends.she just loved and cared about her family.
His other sister Kat was rather quiet and didn't like to be
bothered allot. She was fifteen years old and she was more anti
social then Brandon. She used to be happy and talk more to her
siblings when she was younger, but had gotten more moody over the
years.
Brandon cared about his two sisters and he enjoyed spending time
with them, especially around holidays and family outings when they
were younger. In recent years the three siblings had rather grown
apart, but still talked sometimes.
Brandon didn't really talk to his parents very much as they were
busy allot. He didn't have any friends at school back at his old
hometown, but he hoped to have better luck at his new school.
Brandon' father pulled the car up to the old house and Brandon and
his sisters were a little surprised as the house didn't look like
any that had seen not too far away. The house looked about eighty
years old, and it had a few broken Windows as well as an old wooden
door that had a crack on it. The house was pretty big however as it
had about four bedrooms, three bathrooms as well as a basement and
a garage and it ha a big backyard where Brandon would later
discover.
Brandon, sitting with his two sisters in the back of the car looked
nervously out the window. "Wow, I've never seen something so
horrifying and coolly at the same time."
"Well, guess it's the right time of the year to be in a house like
this. Don't be scared ,Brandon, I'll look out for you." His sister
Carly said with a smile.
Carly cared for Brandon, but she tended to be a bit too
overprotective of him which irritated him sometimes. He then sighed
and said, "Carly, I'm not scared of that house. I think it looks
pretty cool."
"You're scared of that house and you know it." Kat said as she was
looking into a smallmirror with an angry look and putting dark eye
liner on her eyelids and black lipstick. Kat was a gothic girl, who
often was mean, but at times she showed she cared for Brandon. She
often wore black boots, jeans and leather coats, and she had long
back hair.
Carly wore blue and red sweaters, a jean skirt, with knee high
socks and red sneakers. Her long hair was light brown and she
usually kept in a ponytail or pigtails, and kept it Dow, depending
on the day.
Brandon wore short Brown pants, blue or black shirtshirts, and
black shoes. He had dark hair and he was slightly shorter then his
two older sisters.
Brandon's father pulled the car up at the house and he, their
mother, and Brandon with his two sisters, entered the house,
slowly.
Brandon was carrying a large backpack on his back, that was pulling
his weight back a little and he looked scared as he was stepping
through the door. Kat was just smiling and Carly didn't like the
house very much.
Brandon's father then found the light switch and they were a in for
a surprise. The house looked very big and it had nice furniture as
well as a large tv-set left behind, though it looked about twenty
years old.
Brandon looked around the house and so did his two sisters. Brandon
then looked out into the backyard which was very big and had allot
of large trees and there were not of piles of leaves as it was fall
time . Brandon thought it looked pretty nice, so he pulled a
flashlight out of his backpack and decided to look into what was
outside. He has some large pumpkins that were by the trees and also
heard some rather strange noises and laughing. "What is that?" He
said to himself. He then slipped down an edge, landing in a pile of
leaves
He stood up and looked around as there were some weird things vin
his backyard thanks did not expect. He walked around, looking very
carefully and he then tripped over a large pumpkin that looked
different then any other Jack O'lantern he had ever seen.
He looked a little more closely and he touched it and it then moved
it's mouth a little as lighting flashed in the sky. Brandon then
ran back to his house and he was slipping in the big pile of
leaves.
He also saw a skull sticking out of the ground under some of the
leaves and he heard thunder bolts.
Meanwhile, inside the house, Kat and Carly were helping Brandon's
parents get the rest of the stuff moved into the house. Carly then
sighed as she was carrying a heavy box and said, "Where's Brandon?
It's not like him to not help the family?
Brandon then rushed from the back door and he dropped his
flashlight on the floor and he said, "Guys, I think this house is
haunted!"
Kat just looked at him and laughed a little. Brandon then looked at
her annoyed and said, "I'm serous! I saw it out side. There's a big
pumpkin that's alive."
Carly then laughed and walked over to Brandon, grabbed his hand and
said, "Oh, Brandon. You're so silly. I think you just need to lie
down you've had a long day."
Brandon then started stuttering, "But- you guys-"
Brandon's mother then took him upstairs to his new bedroom, where
most of his stuff was already packed. What made Brandon even more
scared is when his mother took him inside his new room, holding his
hand he saw there was a big window that led to the backyard.
Brandon held on to his mother's hand and said, "I have a bad
feeling about this place, man. I saw something out in the back
yard." Brandon was shaking, nervously.
His mother tucked him into his bed which was close to the window
and said, "It's all in your head, Brandon. Now get some rest." She
then closed the door.
Brandon then sat out of bed for a second and he looked out the
window and saw wind blowing and he saw the big pumpkin from down as
it turned around as there was lighting in the sky.
Brandon then got back into bed and his under his small blanket and
he then reached into his backpack and pulled out a book about
supernatural creatures and paranormal legends. Brandon had
encounters with ghost as a kid and he had been looking for as much
information as he used since he was nine years old.
