Ghost and Husband
Enter if you dare...

One day had the petrifying nightmare ever. One night me and my friends, sally, Emma, John, and Franklin, we were coming back from a party. Our attention suddenly changed, as we all feared of the ghostly haunted house. My friends had told me that the house was preoccupied by trace of a ghost, but I never assumed it. I thought they were just not factual. Although I didn’t believe it, I was a bit frightened. They had also told me that the long forgotten abandoned house, laid wasted, waiting for its next victim. The dreadful dark, menacing house was once occupied by a couple but in the past it was once a bright, beautiful & blissful house. Many centuries ago, once it was a finished building, a couple moved in. The wedded couple that moved in had this house especially built for them to start their new lives, but it all changed. Four months later the wife was pregnant, she was excited, her husband couldn’t wait for his child. The next day she slipped on the staircase, she lost her unknown child. More terrifying thing was that the women couldn’t have any child, as for the previous incident. The husband’s attitude had changed after he found out that her wife couldn’t have any child. Therefore he used to drink a lot, used to come late at night, and his life struck in depression.

    The way McAvoy writes, her sentences are short and to the point, yet intriguing enough to detail as to what had happened. In her writing, she uses many contractions and abbreviations, also resembling the shortness of her writing style. However, despite the length of the sentences, McAvoy does a phenomenal job on getting the point across and making this article interesting for whoever reads it. The article can be used as a reliable resource for one who is looking into digging deeper into the truth behind the paranormal.

    In most haunted house stories now, the tormented inhabitants of the house usually discover some secret just before the biggest, most powerful ghostly display at the climax of the narrative. These discoveries are a way to explain the horror of the house. The 1999 film adaptation, The Haunting, embraces this kind of plot structure. If I had, I would’ve known on page 50, when Dr. Montague says, “some houses are born bad… What it was like before then, whether its personality was molded by the people who lived here, or the things they did, or whether it was evil from the start, are all questions I cannot answer.”…

    I woke up in the middle of the night to a whistling sound. I sat up and looked around, it was 2:00 in the morning. Suddenly, a book fell off of a nearby shelf all by itself. I quickly got up and went to find Viviane. It appears she is having the same ghostly experiences that I had. We wanted to get out of this creepy house, so we ran to the verandah. When we got there we saw a strand of beads hanging on the railing. I snatched them up and they began to glow. All of the sudden, we were both picked up by two ghosts, that were both women. They hovered in the air for a minute then took off, carrying us through the skies. We came to what looked like another plantation, and they dropped us in a grass clearing, and disappeared.

It involves a group of young people, Mr. and Mrs. Jenny, their pretty sisters and their sisters’ lovers who talk about the possibility of having a ghost inside their house and eventually discover the house’s dreadful secret.
