Ghost Story Narritive

The Ghost that eats children

Once upon a time, there was a family that lived in a very rich neighborhood of California. There were two kids and a mom and dad. This family was a very happy one, rarely missing there weekend trips to there skiing house in the mountains and always attending church on Sundays. The boy, ten years old was the older of the two while the younger girl was only six years old. The parents were very nice people only wanting the best for their kids, always scolding the brother for picking on the little girl. The boy played many tricks on the girl and she would get frightened and cry to her mommy. As always, favoring the little girl, the mother would yell at her son and drag him in his room by the ear and make him sit there for hours. As the boy sat there, bored and upset at his punishment, he would think of ways to get back at his sister by playing a joke or scaring her somehow.

"I've got it"! "I know what I can do to make my stupid little sister pay" He sat there pondering his plan of action while considering the consequences at the same time. Talking to himself aloud he exclaimed, "I'm going to put on my scary Halloween mask and hide in her closet until she is sleeping." His plan continued unfolding inside his head, as the boy went over every detail from how he would get in her room without being seen by his parents to finding the scariest mask he could find.

The following day, Friday, the boy got up to get to school. As always, he had his cereal and left the house to get on the bus. "Don't forget your lunch" said the mother. The boy quickly ran back to the house, "Thank you" said the boy as he was walking away from her towards the bus. The boy walked to the back of the bus because this was the coolest place to be if you were ten years old. He sat next to his two closest friends and started exchanging words regarding there weekend plans. The boy immediately said, "I can't wait to get revenge on my sister this weekend." Because they went to the same school, the boy's friends on the bus did not like her also so they were interested to hear his plan. The boy began to tell them, "This weekend we're going up to the mountains to our skiing house, and, knowing my younger sister is scared up there all the time, I'm gonna put snow in her face and make her cry like a little baby." The boy and his friends begain thinking up other ways to get revenge on his sister while talking about school, videogames, and other important topics for a third grader.

"Mom, I'm home" said the boy as he walked in the house after a long day at school.

"How was school?" said the mother

"Great, I saw all my friends today and we won playing baseball at recess"

"That's great honey, I'm very proud of you. I hope you are ready to go up to the mountains this weekend. We are leaving as soon as your father gets home from work. I know you are going to be on your best behavior and won't bother your sister, right?"

"Yes, mom," he said as he chuckled, thinking about his plans to seek revenge on the sister that had gotten him grounded for about half his life.

"Oh, look, your father's home kids, go get your things ready to leave," said the mother to her son as she packed her daughter a suitcase making sure not to forget anything. Once the father got inside and had a quick dinner with the family, they were on the road driving up for a weekend of skiing and enjoying their vacation house with the whole family.

As they arrived at the house there was a thick layer of fog covering the mountaintop. "I can't see more than a few feet ahead because of this damn fog," said the father. "Drive slowly honey and be careful," said the mother as she always was looking out for the best interest of her family. They approached the house after about an hour drive. The snow in the driveway was very deep so the family had to walk down the driveway in the darkness.

"Mommy!" cried the little girl as the boy put ice cold snow down his sister's jacket. "God damnit boy, you won't listen to anything I tell you. This is the last time I told you not to bother her!" as the father gave the boy a firm kick in the ass while wearing heavy work boots. "When you're sleeping tonight the ghost man is going to come and get you!" The boy was a little shaken up by this due to the legend of the ghost man in the area. He was a ghost that would come and take kids from their houses and would eat them for dinner. The little boy was worried as he walked toward the house, listening to the werewolves in the distance howling up to the moon as it reflected its light through the fog on the mountaintop. They made it to the house, and shoveled some of the snow away from the door. The father turned the key and opened the door, allowing his wife to walk in
