The Haunted House

The very next morning Joe told Mary and Leo all his suspicions. Everyone became instantly scared. Just then the doorbell rang. Mary answered it. There was a strange man at the door. He said, or creaked, “Can I please see Mr Leo?”

Q One dark, gloomy night in a rather welcoming and cheery pub, lots of people were gathered together in there socialising. It was very loud and noisy. This caused great disturbance to animals outside in the wild…especially to one particular kind. Draculas are different from vampires because vampires turn people they bite into themselves, however Draculas simply suck the blood out of people. Well here in this place there was a Dracula in the darkness. Joe, who was a 93 year old man with white hair and blue eyes, came out of the pub. He had a younger brother and sister; Leo was 89 and Mary was 88. They lived together, in a haunted house. The entire house was positively spooky and creepy. It was a huge mansion surrounded by dead trees and howling winds, but it was still close to the pub. It even had its own graveyard. At that very moment, Dracula was inside the house. Since Dracula had incredible hearing, he could hear everything that was going on inside the pub. By this time Joe had reached the front gate. As he opened it, Drac heard the noise and with his stealthy speed went past Joe in a flash. Joe was so startled that he fell over. As he got up slowly and carefully, Joe began wondering about the mysterious thing that had startled him. At first he thought it was just an animal, but now he wasn’t so sure! Then he realised something. His house (or Joe, Leo and Mary’s house) was rumoured to be the hideout for a Dracula!

“Of course,” said Mary.

As soon as Mary called for Leo, the man took a potion from his pockets and emptied it all over Mary and Leo. They both slowly transformed into Draculas too. They spotted Joe and chased him all over the house and even around the local area.

“Why are you doing this?” Joe cried desperately.

“Because I am lonely and sad, and wanted to amuse myself,” replied Dracula.

“H…Ho…How…about…you come…and live with us?” asked Joe nervously.

“Really? Gee, thanks,” replied Drac.

And with that, Dracula turned the frightened Mary and Leo back to their original form, and he moved in with Joe and his siblings where they lived together happily.
