“Oh how thy speaks makes thou shiver.i shan't let you.” Constance Valin and Larisa were all sisters Valin being the oldest at 14 constance being 12 and at the youngest Larisa who was 9.They lived in a small town in Salem, Massachusetts at a time when women weren't so appreciated,1691. As Constance walked the streets she got glares from a lot of people. Valin was on edge by her appearance as well, but said nothing. One man passing by said that it was despicable for her to wear pants. One day as Constance was walking along wearing pants a man came up and snatched her and said that he would take her to the mayor for this. Valin sped home and got Larisa and ran back to the mayor. As they got there the mayor accused Constance of being a witch
The next day the three sisters were charged with the consequences of losing their home and money. Valin said that it was all her fault and that she didn't know what to do. The next day the town stayed away from the sisters. Constance came up with a plan right then and there they were going to leave this wretched town. When they got home she told her sisters the plan.
he name was Lydia and she was banished from her home. The girls explained that they too had been banished. The footsteps and chanting got louder. the girls said that there names were Valin Constance and Larisa. they said that the people must be after them. Lydia turned of the lights and whispered that now they wait.
That night the girls ran off into the forest in search of a real home.The forest was shaded with trees. But little did they know Billy the mayor's son was watching them. He dashed to his dad (the mayor.)The mayor summoned everyone and the towns folk grabbed their torches and headed off into the inky night. Meanwhile The three girls continued strolling through the forest when they heard footsteps along with chanting. It got louder. They dived into a large tree hollow. They heard an unfamiliar voice. It said that they didn't want intruders in their house. It seemed to be a woman's voice. The woman came down .she looked as though she was made out of honey and silk. she said that she didn’t expect children in this part of the forest she said that

Zombies moaning, owls hooting, witches screeching, these are the sounds in the treacherous graveyard. Tuesday October, 31, 2014, kids in my little pony, hulk, and cinderella costumes were running up and down the Cory lane waiting for their buckets to be filled up to the very top with candy. Cindy on the other hand hates Halloween so she sits in the neighborhood graveyard and reads Tuck Everlasting by the creek. She wanders over to her mom’s grave to give her flowers. Her mom Samantha Barbra Thomas died on October, 31, 2013, from a car crash. Cindy hears a piercing sound similar to nails on a chalkboard. She darts home NOT looking back. She hides under the covers, but still hears the sound getting closer and closer. Cindy yells for her older brother Jack, but no one answers.Loading...
Finally Jack comes in, but it isn't him. Since he got bitten by the hideous monster he now has gigantic ears, sharp teeth, deadly eyes, and claws that tear. Just when Cindy thinks her life is about to end everything goes away and she is back reading at the graveyard. Cindy is so scared so she runs to get her neighbor, old lady Murray. When Mrs. Murray opens the door, she is a zombie! Cindy screams so loud that every neighbor and dead person wakes up. Zombies, witches, werewolves, and clowns everywhere. She tries to run but a witch made a forcefield blocking her. Loading...
Cindy is so overwhelmed that she faints and her family thought she died so they put her in a grave. When she wakes up she realizes that her life actually is over now. This is why you never prance in a graveyard alone or you will end up dead and alone like Cindy Thomas. Also you should never hate Halloween!Loading...
Out Of The Forest

Who knew that a boring day could turn into a terrible day and then a night where people party. It was Saturday October 29, 1756 and everyone at the ranger household was bored. 17 year old Aaron was hungry. The 16 year old twins Nova and Serenity were trying and failing to put 6 year old Araya and 2 year old Olie down for a nap. 12 year old Brooklyn believed that there was nothing to do. And 10 year old Cooper kept glancing at the door waiting for their parents to come home from work in the village. Their mom worked as a Bank Manager and their dad worked as a math teacher.
Then Aaron said that maybe they could go to the village even though the villagers didn’t like them. Everyone agreed just because they were bored. So they went to the village, only to find their parents Hazel and Theo ranger being chased out of it! Every villager was chasing their parents like rabid dogs! Suddenly they heard someone say that their parents were running and they should run too, before anyone else found them. When they turned around they saw that it was their family friend Ms.Clevland! Ms.Cleveland was a 70 year old woman with leathery skin and kind eyes. She said that the mayor had been murdered and because of the hatred of their parents throughout the town everyone blamed Hazel and Theo ranger. There wasn’t much a couple of kids could do.
So the ranger kids got in dark cloaks and talked in deeper voices (except for Araya and Olie who both stayed with their parents) and asked questions to everyone in the village. No one even know it was them. When they asked Ms.Cleveland she said that she shouldn't be telling us but she had secretly killed the mayor for everyone's sake. So the kids (still talking in deeper voices and in dark cloaks) convinced her to come with them to the rest of the village. They told every villager and when the villagers realized they blamed Hazel and Theo for no reason they said sorry and put Ms.Cleveland in jail. The jail smelled of dying rats. Then when everyone was partying, Ms.Cleveland said that she was done with this story and she disappeared. And now you my dear reader might know who Ms.Cleveland is now.
THE HALLOWEEN SCARE
By Gia
It was halloween night and Violet was out trick or treating. She came upon an old, run-down house. When she saw it, it scared her, but she went up and rang the doorbell anyway. Violet stood on the porch of the old house, terrified of what might lie within it. The door opened but no one was standing in the doorway to have opened it. Curious, she went inside the house. When she walked through the door, she stumbled on a loose floorboard. When she got up she noticed that underneath the flickering lights, stood a hallway, and at the end of the hallway stood a single door. Violet wondered what lay behind the door so she opened it and found a staircase leading to what she thought was a basement. As she was walking down, the stairs started to creak under her wait. When she got to the bottom, she started wandering around the basement and noticed that there were a lot of boxes. She was walking through the basement when, startlingly, a box toppled down from above. BANG. Oh, it’s just a box, she thought. This house alone put her on edge but the box really scared her! She kept walking until she saw a shadowy figure before her.
Oh. My. GOSH, she thought, terrified. It took a while for her to realize she was staring at a ghost! She raced upstairs. Suddenly, she heard a loud cackle. She ran outside and couldn’t believe her eyes. Up on the roof was a cackling witch. In one hand was a broom and in the other a wand.
