mom,​ ​dad,​ ​brother,​ ​and​ ​sister​ ​were.​ ​All 
pf​ ​the​ ​sudden​ ​she​ ​heard​ ​someone 
calling​ ​her​ ​name.​ ​It​ ​wasn’t​ ​Anna.​ ​She 
was​ ​standing​ ​right​ ​next​ ​to​ ​Emma.​ ​Emma 
didn’t​ ​want​ ​to​ ​answer.​ ​She​ ​asked​ ​Anna​ ​if 
she​ ​heard​ ​anything.​ ​Emma​ ​wondered​ ​if 
she​ ​was​ ​hallucinating.​ ​Then​ ​they​ ​heard 
a​ ​knock.​ ​“Who’s​ ​in​ ​here,”​ ​said​ ​a​ ​creepy 
voice.​ ​Emma​ ​and​ ​Anna​ ​then​ ​ran​ ​to​ ​the 
front​ ​and​ ​locked​ ​it.​ ​Then​ ​they​ ​ran​ ​to​ ​the 
back​ ​and​ ​locked​ ​it.​ ​Once​ ​they​ ​were 
almost​ ​at​ ​the​ ​corn​ ​maze,​ ​they​ ​slowed 
their​ ​pace.​ ​Anna​ ​asked​ ​Emma​ ​if​ ​she​ ​still 
had​ ​shivers​ ​and​ ​Emma​ ​said​ ​they​ ​were 
all​ ​down​ ​her​ ​back.​ ​After​ ​5​ ​minutes,​ ​they 
finally​ ​reached​ ​the​ ​corn​ ​maze.​ ​Anna 
showed​ ​her​ ​tickets​ ​to​ ​the​ ​man,​ ​and​ ​they 
were​ ​let​ ​in.​ ​There​ ​was​ ​a​ ​sign​ ​where​ ​the 
corn​ ​maze​ ​started​ ​and​ ​where​ ​it​ ​ended. 
Emma​ ​still​ ​felt​ ​like​ ​someone​ ​was 
following​ ​her​ ​and​ ​breathing​ ​on​ ​her​ ​neck. 
Right​ ​when​ ​the​ ​girls​ ​walked​ ​in​ ​a 
scarecrow​ ​popped​ ​out.​ ​“AHH!”​ ​They 
jumped​ ​with​ ​fear.​ ​There​ ​were​ ​two​ ​ways 
to​ ​get​ ​out.​ ​Emma​ ​wanted​ ​to​ ​take​ ​the 
right​ ​and​ ​Anna​ ​wanted​ ​to​ ​take​ ​the​ ​left. 
They​ ​compromised​ ​and​ ​went​ ​left​ ​even 
though​ ​Emma​ ​felt​ ​that​ ​way​ ​was 
creepier.​ ​They​ ​came​ ​to​ ​a​ ​dead​ ​end​ ​that 
had​ ​a​ ​“ghost”​ ​and​ ​it​ ​said​ ​turn​ ​left​ ​to​ ​live. 
The​ ​girls​ ​turned​ ​left.​ ​When​ ​they​ ​did​ ​the 
wind​ ​started​ ​howling.​ ​It​ ​was​ ​a​ ​low​ ​eerie 
sound.​ ​The​ ​wind​ ​sounded​ ​like​ ​it​ ​was 
saying,​ ​“Emma.​ ​Anna,”​ ​over​ ​and​ ​over.

“Anna.​ ​I’m​ ​not​ ​so​ ​sure​ ​about​ ​this​ ​maze.​ ​I 
think​ ​we​ ​should​ ​turn​ ​around.” 
“But​ ​we​ ​just​ ​started!” 
“Please!” 
“Fine.”​ ​So​ ​the​ ​girls​ ​turned​ ​around​ ​and 
went​ ​back​ ​the​ ​way​ ​they​ ​came.​ ​RIght 
when​ ​they​ ​were​ ​going​ ​to​ ​leave​ ​the​ ​huge 
metal​ ​gate​ ​suddenly​ ​slammed​ ​shut! 
They​ ​ran​ ​in​ ​fear.​ ​Footsteps​ ​were 
approaching.​ ​A​ ​few​ ​more​ ​steps​ ​and​ ​they 
could​ ​hide.​ ​Emma​ ​led​ ​Anna​ ​inside​ ​of 
one​ ​of​ ​the​ ​corn​ ​walls​ ​and​ ​they​ ​ducked 
down.​ ​The​ ​girls​ ​laid​ ​flat​ ​against​ ​ground 
but​ ​close​ ​enough​ ​so​ ​that​ ​they​ ​could​ ​see 
if​ ​someone​ ​was​ ​coming.​ ​ ​Suddenly​ ​a 
horrid​ ​foot​ ​stepped​ ​right​ ​on​ ​Emma’s 
finger.​ ​She​ ​was​ ​screaming​ ​inside​ ​but 
stayed​ ​quiet.​ ​The​ ​figure​ ​left.​ ​They​ ​waited 
5​ ​minutes​ ​and​ ​then​ ​submerged​ ​out​ ​of 
the​ ​wall.​ ​They​ ​ran​ ​right​ ​out​ ​of​ ​the 
mummy!​ ​The​ ​mummy​ ​said,​ ​“Hi!”​ ​Emma 
screamed​ ​and​ ​ran​ ​around​ ​desperately 
trying​ ​to​ ​find​ ​the​ ​exit.​ ​Anna​ ​was​ ​chasing 
Emma​ ​around​ ​till​ ​she​ ​finally​ ​felt​ ​like​ ​she 
wasn’t​ ​near​ ​the​ ​mummy.​ ​Emma​ ​looked 
up​ ​and​ ​saw​ ​the​ ​sign​ ​and​ ​it​ ​said,​ ​“Thanks 
for​ ​coming!​ ​Turn​ ​right​ ​to​ ​exit.”​ ​Emma 
yelled​ ​for​ ​Anna​ ​and​ ​didn’t​ ​hear​ ​a 
response.​ ​She​ ​called​ ​her​ ​cell​ ​phone​ ​and 
Anna​ ​still​ ​didn’t​ ​answer.​ ​Emma​ ​d
