Spooky Story Starters

(The scientist cautiously peered into the wooden crate, unsure of the otherworldly sounds coming from within it.)

There was a spooky house way on top of a mountain road overlooking the meadow below. The house had a broken fence with the gate swinging back and forth wide open hanging there, and the hinge was just about popped off, for it creaked when you pushed it open.

There were cob webs all over the ivy and on the trees outside. The windows and window seals were covered with cob webs and spiders it was creepy to even look at.

I wanted to go inside the old creepy house and see what the inside looked like but my friends were too afraid, therefore we started to open the front door and ran because we thought we heard some sounds coming from within the house, so we ran all the way home.

The next day after school I went back to the old creepy house with my friend Creepy Shallow who is not afraid of anything, for Creepy Shallow thinks that he is scary and that he can scare other people, so he goes around making all kinds of creepy noises and sounds by saying “Boo” behind someone just to scare them and watch them jump.

Creepy Shallow decided that it is time to go into the old scary house full of cob webs, spiders and all kinds of hallowing sounds. Creepy Shallow slowly opened the front door, and shouted “Boo! Boo” Creepy Shallow said. The way that Creepy Shallow shouted out Boo startled and scared me, and my knees started to shake.

I thought I heard a voice inside the old scary house saying “Come In” so Creepy Shallow and I entered the house and it was full of furniture covered with dust, cob webs and creaking sounds were coming through the walls. Creepy Shallow could not control himself as usual, and went into the den and found a wooden crate sitting in the middle of the room. The wooden crate was making some really scary sounds, scratching, banging, and it was actually rocking back and forth. I was really scared and screamed and yelled out to Creepy Shallow “Let’s get out of here.” Creepy Shallow and I ran out the door, down the long porch, and out the swinging gate.

Creepy Shallow decided that we should call the police, so we went home and told his parents about the old scary house, and the wooden crate. Creepy Shallow’s parents called the police, and we met the police at the old scary house, and showed the police where the wooden crate was in the den.

The wooden crate was making hollowing sounds, scratching sounds were coming from the old wooden crate, and the old wooden crate was rocking back and forth. The policeman was startled and jumped back, and told us to back up. The policeman called the scientist to come out to the old scary house and check out the wooden crate and it’s contents.

The scientist went to the old scary house the following morning at dusk, and Creepy  Shallow and I went there to see what was in the old wooden crate. The scientist cautiously peered into the wooden crate, unsure of the otherworldly sounds coming from within it. The scientist slowly peeked into the old wooden crate and slammed the crate shut, for it was a dead body (only the bones and skull were in the crate) and when the scientist peeked in the crate, he heard a voice say “Leave me in peace, or I will haunt you for the rest of your life.”
