The four teens stood beside the Shrieking Shack, unsure of whether they truly wanted to enter or not. They knew it wasn't haunted, that was what most people believed, but they also weren't fully sure of what they would find inside. How were they to know whether or not anyone had perhaps moved into the Shrieking Shack?
"Can we just actually go in there instead of standing outside like a bunch of wimps?" Lorcan asked, waiting impatiently for them to do something of actual excitement.
"But, we don't know what we're going to find inside the shack." Lucy said, continuing on by saying, "there could be rats, spiders, or any other totally disgusting things inside."
"Oh no, we might get attacked by a couple of tiny spiders so let's just run away!" Lucy let out an exasperated sigh as she turned away from the infuriating Lorcan.
Finally, after much intense discussion, they decided to enter the building through a window. Through a vote, they decided that Lorcan would go first, but the thought did not bother him. He climbed through a window that he first broke with a rock and hopped into the kitchen. The others quickly followed after him and soon, they all stood in the dingy kitchen of the building which was covered entirely by a thick layer of dust and cobwebs.
"Boo," came a sudden shout and three figures jumped into the kitchen wearing long cloaks. Everyone screamed until the figures took off their masks and showed themselves to be Victoire, Roxanne and Molly, Dominique and Lucy's sister and their other friend who was also a cousin.
"I will kill you," shouted Dominique chasing after Victoire to avenge herself for getting so scared.
