House of Halloween

It was Halloween eve and Mark was heading up to the dance at the school. It was pretty windy, and Mark started running. On the way to the school Mark had to pass an old spooky house. Mark did not mind passing the house because he didn't believe in ghosts. But then he heard someone call his name. Mark got scaed and didn't know what to do. Then he relaxed and thought that it was just his imagination or the wind. When he got to the school a song called "Oop-up" was playing. He payed his admission and went to sit down. "Hi Mark," Mark turned around and saw Samantha. "Do you want to dance" she asked. Samantha was the prettiest girl in the eighth grade, so Mark couldn't say no. A lot of people were wearing costumes, because there was going to be a costume contest later in the night. "I see you ain't dressed up either," Samantha said. "I'm saving my costume for Trick or Treating, tomorrow" said Mark. After the song was over Mark and Samantha sat down next to each other. He told her, "While I was on my way up, near that old house I thought I heard someone call my name." "Lets check it out," said Samantha. But Mark replied, "It's too cold, lets' save this adventure for tomorrow, OK?" Mark asked. "OK," she replied.

The next morning Mark awoke to a ringing phone. "Hello," he said. "Hi Mark, whats up?" It was Samantha, she wanted to check the old house. "Later tonight, I just got up, "he said, as he put some bread in the toaster.

Later that evening Samantha stopped by Mark's house. Mark had just started putting on his costume. "Hurry up Mark." Mark put on his mask and they went out. On the way to the spooky old house they stop by some other houses to get some candy. When they got near the old house Mark felt a fear for that house that he had never felt before. Mark didn't show it, because he didn't want Samantha to think he was a coward. When he looked at the door of the house, it was open! Mark felt his heart pounding. He tried to keep his cool, but he couldn't. He looked at Samantha whose eyes were as big as walnuts and she was sweating. Mark was sweating too. When Mark finally realized how close they were to the house, and since nothing had happened yet, he started to calm down. They both crept into the house as quietly as they could. All of a sudden, "BOO!!" Mark jumped and panicked. The next thing he knew he was on the floor, the lights were on, and kids were laughing at him. Samantha was also laughing. Then Mark started laughing at himself. Samantha had planned it. It was a Halloween party.
