I flicked the switch but nothing happened. I was scared. It was known that right now there was a ghost haunting the city. I just moved into this house that everybody thinks it's haunted. Then I woke up "thank goodness It was just a dream". I was still scared. So the next day I told my mum she said" Caprise there's nothing to be scared of". That night I was so scared I had the light on I normally don't have the light on. The light turned off,I heard a noise,I turned the light on again but this time the window opened and shut. I screamed "ahh"then I got out of bed and walked around I saw nothing but I felt something I jumped with fright and ran back to bed. I just hoped that it was a dream I pinched myself but no it wasnt a dream. I screamed again but no one heard me. I ran to my mums room but mum wasn't there. Then I heard a knock on the door. "Knock knock". I quietly walked downstairs and opened the door no one was there so I went back upstairs and went back to bed. As soon as I got back in bed I heard another knock on the door. I walked back downstairs and opened the door but still no one was there. I walked out further and looked around. I was getting scared now...As soon as I calmed down,someone pulled me out of the house and put me in there car. I was never to be seen again...
