On August 15‚ 2007‚ my older brother‚ Lucas‚ suggested we go to the corncrib. I agreed and we walked across the farm to flip the lock and open the large white doors.

My brother and I continued to sprint through the dark‚ damp streets. Puddles splashed under our feet making eerie echoes. We passed closed shops and empty parking lots. It seemed like I wouldn’t even have nightmares as creepy as what I was walking through. It was darker than usual. A unearthly feeling was in the air. No one was around‚ which was normal because it was almost midnight‚ but it felt different. “Maybe I’m just in a bad mood‚” I whispered to myself. School had proved to be a tragedy yet
