Peering into the dim hallway, Paul almost shot right out of his socks. Standing in the corridor, was emaciated specter, floating creepily. It’s ragged hair was blowing in an invisible wind.

He shivered, knowing he should contact his friends. The ghoul opened its eyes. They were milky white with cataracts.

Meanwhile, Teeba, Peyton, Jaron, Nick, Madison, and Zoe had banded together to find him, as they were really spooked out. “Where should we look first?” asked Teeba, uncertain and shivering with fright.                                                                  

“We should split up,” said Madison.

“I’ll go with hmmm… this is a hard choice,” said Madison. “Actually I’ll go alone,” she decided.

“Well don’t go screaming to us when the ghoul finds you,” said Paul.

“I won’t because by then I’ll catch him in my magic box.” she promised.

“I wonder if you lost it,” sneered Jaron holding up  the box.

“Hey! That’s mine! You have your own!” said Madison.

“Is that so? I think your the one who stole my box, you liar,” commented Jaron.

“You’re bringing that up again? Like I told you I didn’t take your box!” said Madison.

At that moment the ghoul went into Jaron’s body and Jaron floated up to the ceiling. Everyone screamed with terror. “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” everyone said in unison.

Everyone wanted to help Jaron, but then the ghoul came out of the body and said “Two of you are my sacrifices to the goddess Eris and they are Zoe and Teeba”  

“I hate this ghoul. I’m the special one here,” retorted Peyton.

“Well I’m glad that I’m not the sacrifice,” said Madison. “This ghoul is a good one to not pick me. Unlike the other one we found last year,”

“And I just want to get out of here!” Zoe said nervously.

“HEY GHOST FACE! COME AND GET ME!” yelled Nick throwing Madison’s magic box at him.

“I get some of the credit. It is MY box after all,” said Madison grabbing the box from Nick.

“But I’m the one who threw it so I get half the credit,” said Nick.

“So who’s up for some volleyball?” asked Jaron like nothing had happened.

“Ugh I’m too tired right now,” complained Peyton.

“I could go for a few rounds,” said Madison and Zoe.

Then they went out of the haunted house to go play volleyball at the beach….
