Directions: You will create a word document in which you write a scary story. Be sure it is an ORIGINAL story. It can be an expansion of the post you did about a time you were scared, or you can just make up a story.

My family and I went on a vacation out of town for spring break. We were staying in a cabin near the forest. After we unpacked our belongings my sister, Ella, and I decided to go outside and explore the backyard. We found all sorts of bugs underneath rocks. Then a boy came up to us and asked if he could play with us. We said yes and then we played hide and seek. The boys name was Derrick. Ella was the seeker. Derrick decided to hide behind a tree. I was looking for a spot. “5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ready or not here I come” said Ella. I rushed into a little cave. Ella found Derrick shortly after. Then there was an earthquake, the parents yelled at us to come inside. I tried to get out of the cave but tripped then rocks came falling down. The exit was blocked, I was trapped. I suddenly started to panic. I screamed for help but no one could hear me. I was terrified. The earthquake stopped an hour and a half later. Everyone was yelling my name looking for me, I could hear my mom crying. I could hear the panic in their voice. I tried to tell but I couldn’t get a word out. They called the police department and fire department. I could hear the sirens. I tried to get a scream out so that someone could at least hear me. I heard Ella come close to the cave and I decided to bang rocks together and make a noise. Luckily she heard it and told my mom. The fire department successfully moved the rocks from the entrance and the police blocked it off after I was out. The firemen took me to their truck and made sure I was okay and told me I had to drink a lot of water because I was dehydrated and I should warm up. We had a movie night and popcorn with Derrick and his family.
