Chapter 1
It was a stormy night in Evansville, WI. A little boy was at home listening to
the radio with his mother. Suddenly an announcement came over the radio, “Attention ladies and gentlemen there has been a ghost sighting on Main Street” it
said. THe little boy jumped out of his seat and ran out the door to find the ghost.
He has been interested in ghosts ever since his teacher at school told everyone
about them and what they were.
“Billy you better get back here right now or your father will be hearing about
this!” his mother screamed at him standing in the doorway.
Chapter 2
Billy kept running down the middle of the street, but he didn’t know where he
was going. He decided to stop and think. “Where should I go?” he thought.
THen an eery fog surrounded him. It was green and smelt like rotten eggs. He
felt someone breathing on his neck. He turned around so slow he felt like a turtle.
When he was fully turned around there was a ghostly figure staring down at him
five feet in the air.
“I’m coming for you Billy” the ghost said in his father’s voice. Screaming, he
turned around and ran down the street.
