It was Halloween night, and my friends and I were at my house playing truth or dare. Lily chose dare, so Harry told her that she had to drink the whole juice bottle in 5 seconds, and she did it. Then it was my turn and Steve told me to go on my own to the abandoned house, the scariest house in the city, the story tells that the house belonged to a rich couple who were murdered in that house by someone mysterious, and since then the house is for sale but nobody ever dared to buy it. I said that I was only going to do it if they came with me, Katie was afraid that something would happen to us, but we went anyway.
When we arrived at the front of the house I instantly regretted it, but it was too late. Harry jumped over the fence of the house and helped us to enter. The house was dark and dirty and it was very cold inside. On the first floor, there was the kitchen, the dining room, the living room, a bathroom and the music room where there was an old piano. Upstairs there was the bedroom and another bathroom.
We toured all the house and when we wanted to go to my place we could not leave, the front door was locked. Everyone started to freak out, except me, I was not scared or afraid I was just wondering who locked the door because I was the last person who closed it and I did not lock it and my friends were upstairs with me all the time so none of us did it. There was someone in that house apart from us.
We started looking around the house to see if someone or something appeared, but instead of that Katie mysteriously disappeared, and at that moment I started to freak out like the others. We looked for Katie for half an hour but we did not find her. Harry, Steve and I were trying to find a window or another door to escape and look for help, but the house did not have windows or more doors. While we were looking for a way out, I realized something, Steve was gone.
Harry and I started crying because we were so scared, he said that he would look for Steve and that I would look for Katie, I told him that it was a bad idea but he did not listen to me, and like the others, Harry disappeared.
I sat on the floor and cried for a while, I was scared, alone and sad. Suddenly I heard a sound from the music room, I ran to the room thinking that maybe there were my friends, I was wrong, instead of them there was the rich couple who was mysteriously murdered, hiding the bodies of my friends.
That is all I remember before they also hid my body in a closet next to my friends.
