Halloween short stories

Idk if you are asking for one but ig i can give you one

In high school, my friends and I were messing around with an Ouija board one night. We had done it before and nothing remarkable had ever happened. We usually did it to try and scare each other or are girlfriends. We all thought it was a joke. That night there was no one else home except the 7 of us and we were all together around the board. One of the girls there wanted to try it. She had never done it before.

This time was different. The board misspelled some of the words the same way every time. It gave answers that seemed really historically accurate for our town (things we neither knew nor cared about). Long story short, the “spirit” claimed it was a 10 year old boy who had died on the property in the 1800s and was buried there too in an unmarked grave (my friend's house was on a farm on the edge of town). We were all a little freaked out because the board had never been so detailed and consistent. However, we were still skeptical and we were all assuming one of us was trying to scare the rest.

Finally, my friend asked if the spirit could do something to prove he was there with us. It went to Yes and then spelled out k-n-o-c-k. Then the planchette stopped moving. We just all stared at it silently and then there was a rap-rap-rap on the window right next to us. The lights were on the outside and there was absolutely no one out there.

We never touched that f-ing board again.

I heard a loud, "KA-THUNK" then I sprung to life horrified. I looked round for a few moments then Dad turned around and looked at me worryingly. "Honey" he said in his nice calm voice "Are you okay?" I looked around me blankly, then I realized we were still in the car. I looked at my sister, and responded "Yeah Dad I'm fine" Out of the corner of my eye I seen big house. It looked like a million ravens could have possibly sang on top of the roof.

     The place looked like it was built in the time of the dinosaurs. I thought we would drive right past it and to our new house, but Dad stopped in the driveway of the beat-up house. “Dad what are we doing here?” I ask in curiosity. He gets out of the car and says, “you’ll see.”  He gets my sister Lucy out the backseat of the pearl white Cadillac. “Let’s go Lucy, Lucas you too.” We all get out of the Cadillac “SURPRISE” Dad hollers. His scream seems to move the dark clouds. Me and my sister almost jump out of our skin. Not because of our dad but because of the sight we saw in one of the windows.

     Me and my little sister stare at the window I tried to scream but it felt like my head was under water. Then the shadow disappeared “D-D-Dad” My sister sputtered “Daddy!” She sobbed. His eyes widen. “What’s wrong” He asked in a world full of worry. I slowly pointed. “Dad there was a shadow in the window.” “Stop talking nonsense Lucas.” He grunted as he walked towards the house. I walked right behind him nearly stepping on his ankles. We get to the doors as he slowly opens the door it slowly creaks. We walk in there so much dust that there must have been so many dust bunnies living there. I walked right behind Dad as he walked in the kitchen, I had lost him in the dust. I walked into some place feeling around then I stepped on something squishy and it felt alive.

I panicked and howled a long-lasting screech. My Dad bursted in with a candle. "LUCAS!" He hollered "WHATS WRONG WHAT HAPPENED SON!" I look down and I see there was nothing there. My eyes widen to full plate. "Sorry Dad I thought I felt something" I muttered in a low voice. He rolls his eyes as my sisters hair flew up into the.

"DAD WHATS HAPPENING!" My little sister hollered of the fright. My dad looks at her then we all got pushed into a corner. A creature came from the mist of dust. "You should have never come here” the creature with bloody eyes told me and my family. My Dad ran us out of the house he was as fast as a lightning bolt. Then we herd the scratchy voice once more. "Hey Derek always listen to you children tahahaha." The laugh echoed through all of our ears as we went back home. To our real home safe in my bed I still herd its terrible scratchy voice.
