The moon was full and bright on this chilly Halloween night as the wind howled sounding like ghosts. The little band of cleverly costumed trick or treaters made their way down the street, laughing and chattering, and examining the treasures in their goody bags. Going house to house and saying trick or treat they stopped at a big mansion house that looked creepy looking and knocked on the door. An old man came out dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow came to the door and smiled at them. "How good it is to see such brave children," the man exclaimed. "But are you all brave enough to find the Halloween treasure that awaits you...inside?" He opened the door wide and motioned them to enter. Some of the children hesitated knowing that the house was famed for being haunted and some approached the door. As three of six kids enter the old man closed the door behind him which made them jump in fright but made the old man laugh. "you silly children. You've fallen into my trap. Now try to find a way out" The children screamed with horror and ran away looking for an exit.
Willie, the 8 year old boy, ran upstairs, his fear getting the better of him straight away. Sarah, the 7 year old, raced through the house, into the kitchen, looking for a back door, while Desmond, Willie's twin brother, ran into a side room, a library, and began trying to unlock a large window.
After running upstaris, Willie ran towards the closeest room he saw. He ran in and shut also locking the door behind him and looked around the room for an opening. The only opening he saw was a window on the other side of the room. He raced to the window, threw open the tattered curtains to see the window was nailed shut. His heart pounding in fear, he began searching for a place to hide. As he shoved a nightstand away from the large 4 poster bed, he heard a sliding sound. He looked and saw that by moving the nighstand, he had opened a secret passageway behind the armoire on the other side of the room.
