The Museum
ReplyDeleteThe water in the Well trickled as I flipped a coin into the water. This museum is creepy l took off my boots and opened the creaky door.. to my amazement the museum was colourful. Obviously it had been refurbished since it was a library in a medieval village. As I was guided around the Museum by a friendly tour guide. She showed me some crystals and some Fossils resurrected here. When we reached the end of the tour, we were guided into a gloomy chamber under the building.. BANG! Rocketed through the tunnels and a bright flash blinded me.
It should be 100 words not counting this and the title.
First entry in Olivia, great job! You have created some really powerful images in your writing. I really like the unexpected twists in your plot. Feel free to have another go if you like.
ReplyDeleteMr Creek.
THE ORPHANAGE.
ReplyDeleteThe windows were smeared with fog and I see the Terrified faces of the parents looking for a child and being frightened of just the ancient building alone.. someone will come for me. I know that.Behind the cracked bricks and rotting wood is a ordinary place. Often they would stop half way up the steps and turn and go home. When I see them turn a huge amount of sadness nestles itself on my shoulders. Only so many times your allowed to give up hope. Yet everytime someone comes my eyes light up I hope these are the people
I love the vocabulary you have used here, you have also carefully chosen the language you have used. I love how you have used the word "nestles"

By Zac Meyerhoff
Well done Zac you have obviously thought carefully about the language that you have used. Please try and use punctuation such as full stops in your next entry.

As I Walk On The Stairs, I See The Scary Well, I Look Down And See The Polluted Water It Was Real Dirty Like A Diarrhoea Poo. I Lost My Appetite So I Got Out Of There, One More Thing I See Is The House, It Was Real Rusty Like Back In The Old Days House. I Took One Step, I Couldn't See A Thing, I Turned The Light On, I Got Real Bored So I Sang The La La Loopsy Song Afterwards The Really Scary Ghost Came Right Up To Me And Scared The Heck Out Of Me.
ReplyDeleteTHE END!
Good effort Vehar this made for an interesting read. Pleasebe careful with you language choice as we do not want potty talk for the sake of it. You are a very clever writer and can entertain your reader in a more intelligent way. Also you need to check you use of capital letters.

My house in Texas is 7 scary stories high...If enter you pay $50 if you beat the huge green slimy beast on the first floor you take an elevator to the next floor and if you dont get swallowed by the mounth ingraved in the floor you go up a level to the 3rd story.If you beat all 7 floors you do get your money back, my friend went with her church and she started to cry. She says with each floor you pass the scarier it gets.........The only problem is....Its not on google and there is no website.
ReplyDeleteGreat work Kris, I really like the way that you have taken a different approach to writing about this image. Keep up the good work!
DeleteSCARED TO DEATH
ReplyDeleteSlowly I crept up the steps. I turned the corner and froze. Two bright yellow lights stood out amongst the gloom. It wasn’t possible was it? The stories and legends people had told. I thought they were just crazy. That couldn’t stop me could it? I continued on with caution. I opened the door and screamed. There staring at me were two yellow eyes. I slammed the door shut and ran down the steps. Everyone thought I was crazy but only I know the truth. To this day I have never gone near the Haunted House again.
fantastic writing Melanie. You have used several short sentences in a row to create suspense for the reader. Well done. Keep up the good work.
Deletemy heart raise nearly tripled as i looked up and saw the house that my
ReplyDeletegreat grandmother died in.i saw the well to my left i almost screamed
as the water had a head in it.the best choice for me to do was to go inside because there was no other house within eighty miles.i looked at the door and opened it. the first thing i noticed was the red everywhere.that is when i needed to go to the toilet. as i took the first step on my journey a cold hand held on to me
by mojtaba
Love the last sentence Mojtaba, it left me wanting to know more! Please next time take your time and make sure you use capital letters and punctuation where appropriate.
DeleteAbandoned House...
ReplyDeleteOnce I was walking to the forest I saw an abandoned house.I walk to the stairs...The door CREEKed as I opened it...I cautiously walk to the room and accidentally stab myself with a knife that was hanging to the wall into the chest,pain rocketed through my body and a horrific shriek escaped from my chapped lips... NOOOOOO!!! The blood spurted out to my chest owww it hurts so much.I crawled out of the door and last drop of blood fell...My heart stop pumping and my eyes was starting to close...And I fell down...
The End...
What a great piece of writing Micah! Was the "CREEKed" for my benefit? Very cheeky! I love how you have described the shiriek escaping your lips. That is a great description.
DeleteMicah, if you were to cautiously walking into the house how do you accidentally stab yourself? Anyway I really like your story, it actually made me laugh to be honest. Good work though.
DeleteThe Worst Nightmare
ReplyDeleteThe first step crumbled as I placed my boot onto it. Why am I going here? I questioned. I get halfway through the steps and notice the creep gate gargoyle staring at me with it's hollow eyes. I make my way carefully up the stairs, hopefully not tripping over. I get to the front door and knock. No one answers so I creak open the door. My worst nightmare was just standing there casually, then his hand leaps at my throat. He squeezes until no sound escapes my throat. I close my eyes and land into sweet nothingness. Sweet, sweet nothingness.
By Madi. I think it's 100 words.
Wow Madi, you have created a pretty scary piece of writing here! I like the way you have used questioning to make the reader think. Make sure you continue to reflect on your writing and make time to change words to make your writing even better!
DeleteWelcome Mr and Mrs Stevenson I will be your guide today and before we go in is there any questions. Okay let’s get started on the tour of the house first you can see on the sheet that its got three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two kitchen, a torch-er room, an indoor and outdoor acid pools and finally five ghosts. As you can see the torch-er room needs a little renovation but it will be back to holding and torch-erring people again. Okay next is the ghosts, hay where are you going. This house will never ever be sold.
ReplyDeleteBy Liban
Liban this is AWESOME!! Love the way that you have take a really different approach. The idea of you being a real estate agent showing people through this house was a very clever idea!
DeleteWow!!! There is some amazing writing on her Room 10, Well done. Great challenge Mr Creek!
ReplyDeleteThank you Mr Wilkinson, your feedback is always appreciated!
DeleteThanks Mr Creek. I hoping for that reaction really. I just hope you could picture it in your mind. That was my main goal.

The Secret Well
ReplyDelete"Shut up!" yelled Brianna. The twins Harry and Michael followed their sister like a snake, making sure to be quiet and camouflaged, but once or twice they forgot and started talking and had to be reminded to keep silent by their sister. 2, 3, 4 minutes passed by, but it seemed like 5 hours. Minutes later, Brianna was groping her way down the old well, when the rope gave away.
"Help!" She cried. The twins reached out, trying to grab any part of her, but they were too late. The lasting thing they heard was a scream...
The title does not count as part of the 100 word challenge.
Great writing Apoorva! I would hate to get dropped down a well like that.
ReplyDeleteThe 'lasting' in the last sentence was supposed to be 'last'.
DeleteSo, all I can pretty much say is... Oops?
“Well I wonder who the next visitors will be?” thought the steely eyed dragon. It really was a shame that people thought the house was scary, just because the path was overrun with weeds and the steps were broken. If people thought about the history of the children that used to run and play here, they would know that they are worn from fun, laughter, and getting scared by big brothers yelling “boo”. The dragon pondered, if only I was able to recreate that silliness and shrieking, it really would be much more fun to live halfway up the stairs!
