Part 3- The House of Dies Drear

Section 2

Hey readers, welcome back! We are now on our 2nd section of our book, where things are beginning to become more exciting. This is finally the part where Thomas meets the mysterious Pluto. He decides he wants to go out and explore around the house, but when he goes up the hill, he falls asleep. When he wakes up, its getting pretty dark, so he tries to go back down to the house. But Thomas becomes frozen with fear, when he hears that same strange noise he heard in the underground tunnel. Despite his fear, Thomas follows the sound. After slipping on a platform, he ends up face-to-face with Pluto, who he believes is the Devil. Pluto, then, chases Thomas back to his house, where Thomas runs through the door. When he goes to bed, he thinks he sees a shadow walking through the house.

  1. I would have followed it because u would want to find out what was in the tunnel with u when u first moved there so that u would know what is at the house.

  2. A.i would have followed the noise because I would want to know if it was anything that could harm me or my family when we weren’t paying attention.

  3. Well I would’ve followed the noise like Thomas, but I would’ve been quieter and more careful so I wouldn’t have fallen and hurt myself.
