The Halloween Weekend
       
               When I got home I took of my Halloween costume, washed the paint off my face, put on my pajamas,brushed my teeth, to get ready for  bed. I had very successful day of trick and treating and scaring all the little kids in my neighbor hood. After me and my friends finished we went over to one of my friends house and hung out till midnight! It was SO fun. I almost feel asleep when I first heard the sound. I just thought it was my older sister coming home finally even though it was around 1 a.m. But then I heard it again i was so confused what was this sound?

          I keep thinking it was just on of my siblings. It was about the 100th time I heard the sound! I was so scared it sounded like a mix of a scream and a doorbell I was freaking out I was so scared I couldn't even sleep it was HORRIBLE!!! It was finally morning and we had no school today I was super exited. I didn't even ear the sound once during the day. I had so fun with my family! When we went to bed again I HEARD the sound AGAIN! I was so freaked out!!! I finally went down stairs to see where it was coming from and trust me I was prepared!!! I had a flashlight, a squirt gun, 3 shirts on and 3 pairs of paints on, and to top it all of I tied a blanket around my neck to look like super man!

         
        When I got down stairs on the middle floor I could hear the sound but not very well. I slowly walked down the other flight of stairs to go down into the basement. I was sure I was going to die I kept thinking of the hoer movies how the walked down into the basement and then died. I just knew I was going to die! When I got to the bottom of the stairs I yelled "DON'T KILL ME I AM ONLY 12 YEARS OLD!" I sill hadn't opened my eyes to see who it actually was. But all I heard was "I am not going to kill you I am just trying to make a toy for you little brother." I was confused who was this? I opened my eyes and it was just my dad!!! I said to my dad" I have not been able to sleep because of this but I am so glad its you." My dad just laughed which made me laugh. Over all it ended OK! I mean I didn't die. Well, that was my Halloween weekend, scary but funny at the same time now I am going to take a nap to make up for that loss sleep.
