  The haunted house    

         

                    

1.30 pm Saturday 

It was a dark and stormy night when Zoe and Alexis were having a sleepover. They were still awake late at night watching television ,When the thunder crackled and the rain thumped louder on the roof, The two snuggled up in a corner and watched the television. Suddenly they could hear footsteps outside the bedroom  door, They knew it wasn't their parents, their parents were in Auckland doing work stuff. 

The two rushed over and locked the door before anyone could get in. The handle twisted and turned for a few seconds then the footsteps thumped away from the door. “Should we open the door?” Zoe asked. “Umm, don’t you think it might get us?” Alexis said as a chill ran up her spine at the thought of it. She Slowly they turned the handle and opened the door to make a tiny crack that they can both see through. No one was there, the hallway was empty. They closed the door again before anything else happens.
