It was the night of Halloween and our neighborhood was dark and quiet. Nobody was home cause everyone was going trick or treating. Except me. I was stuck giving out candy. My mom and dad was gone. That's right, I was all alone. I heard sounds outside and thought it would be some kids wearing costumes. I ran to the kitchen and grabbed the bowl of candy. But I remembered that I was in my pajamas. So I ran upstairs. Before I opened my bedroom door I heard a sound in my parents bedroom. I slowly walked to the bedroom. There was a little crack in the door. It was big enough for me to peek inside. I saw a shadow inside moving. Then I remembered that my parents bedroom was locked. Fear and curiosity ran through me. I slowly opened the door. It was creaking very loudly. The room was dark and gloomy. I tried to feel for the light switch when I saw that the window was open. When I was going to close it I felt like someone was watching. But I thought it was my imagination. So I ignored it. Suddenly I felt something push me in the back. Then I felt like was falling and flying in the same time. When I touched the ground, my body was filled with pain. So I ran inside the house when I heard a scream outside. I went outside and saw a little kid standing over a body. People started closing in. I rushed through them trying to see who it was. When I reached the front I saw my mom and dad crying. I looked down and saw who it was. It was..me. That's when I woke up.
