Chapter 2

Setting up

The doorbell rang. Michelle was here! I ran up to the door and opened it. No one was there. I looked left to right in the dark roads, but no one was in sight. I just shrugged and closed the door. About two 30 seconds later, the doorbell rang again. Opened the door, still, there was no one.

Geez! This is getting annoying! I thought.

The doorbell rang again. I opened the door. It was Michelle.

"Were you the one that was ringing the doorbell and not being there when I would check!?" I asked. "No, why?" she replied with a puzzled look on her face.

"Oh, well someone was doing that and it was really freaking me out" I said with a worried expression. "Don't worry, now let's set up our stuff, I got an idea! Why don't we sleep somewhere scary like, the basement?!" She said with a big grin on her face. "Great idea!" I accepted.

We went upstairs to get the sleeping bags, and pillows, scary stories, Ipods, games, horror movies, chick flicks and comedies. We went downstairs and stopped by the kitchen to get lots of soda, chips, popcorn, popsicles, juice and celery (we're addicted).

Then we headed downstairs to the basement. My basement is the scariest place in the house. It has black walls and boxes everywhere and lots of sculptures that my mom thinks are "pretty" but are just plain scary, there are no windows so we have to bring a lamp and there's a TV but that's not scary.

We set up all our things and popped in a horror movie.

"I'm going to go make us some popcorn" said Michelle.
