The Ghost in the Attic

The Ghost In The Attic

A story : Aminata

One day I woke up to a big surprise. My mom was packing up my room. “ What are you doing?” I asked my mom.

"Remember? We are moving today," said my mom. I completely forgot about that! I got up and went to get ready, but then I remembered that all my stuff was packed up, so I would have to go in my pajamas.

I got into the car. The trunk was full, and there was even a little storage hooked to the back of the car. We drove for an hour or 2 and we finally made it to the new house.

It looked like it had been sitting here for ages. It was a white house, but I could not see any of the white because it was an old house. I went inside. It was dark and had so many webs and spiders. I took one step… then another.

My mom told me to put something in the attic. "No way, mom!" I said. How could I go into the basement at this time?

“Or else…” my mom said. I groaned and went upstairs.

I put the box down and when I turned around to leave, I screamed. I saw a ghost! It was a little girl holding a teddy bear. She had a bow in her hair, and… I ran downstairs to tell all of this to my mom, but she did not believe me. I went to my room. I had to get this ghost out of the house, and fast!!!
