The Haunted Trip
by Kaylee B.
One night Zoe, who had just turned sixteen, was driving to her grandma’s house
because her parents went on vacation to Hawaii.
She was driving through the dark forest. She had just got off night shift at
McDonalds. It was 4:00 am and Zoe was tired. Just then her car started making
creaking noises. She looked at how much gas she had. It was empty, but it couldn’t
be because she had filled it up. She didn’t pay much attention to it, got out and
walked to her grandma’s. She was walking when she felt an object fly behind her.
She turned around and there she saw bright red blood dripping down the tree.
Then she felt a cold hand on her back and heard whispers that said,”Go Home!”It
was so loud that it shook the ground. Zoe bolted out of the forest and into the
house.She looked around and no was there she wondered where her grandma
went. She was unpacking when she heard the door swing open and footsteps come
down the kitchen. She looked around and saw a note on the floor. It had a number
10 on it. This kept happening at approximately 4:00 am and each time the numbers counted down 9,8,7,6,5, on the fifth one it said,”Half way there 4,3,2,......1.
On the last day the number came with 2 notes one said,”It is time!” The second
one said,”Zoe get out of here right now or your family won’t see you again.” She
started packing as fast as she could to get out of the house.Once again the door
swung opened and she heard footsteps then she saw a big black shadow coming behind her she turned around and the last thing she remembered was falling to the
ground and everything going black.
