The scene is the South Park elementary school. The kids are starting to arrive for class, it is Friday.
" Hey Kyle." said Stan running up to Kyle
" Hey Stan." said Kyle
" Did you check the newspaper archives at the library?"
" No. Ike got sick so I had to stay home all day yesterday and watch him as my parents got some medicine for him."
Kyle noticed Kenny walking up to them.
" Oh too bad dude. Is he okay?" asked Stan
" He seemed fine today, look there's Kenny." said Kyle
" Hey guys." said Kenny
" Hey Kenny. You set for tonight?" asked Stan
" Yeah, you ready to spend the night in Craven Manor!" said Kyle in a sarcastic tone
" Ready as you would expect. Did you check those archives yesterday?" asked Kenny
" No."
" Why?"
" Long story, so where is the fat ass?"
" Over here Kyle." said Cartman in a sarcastic tone
" Hey Eric. How you been doing?" asked Kenny
" Fine. You okay with having to spend the night in the haunted house?"
The four boys walked towards the school doors.
" Hey Kenny." yelled Token walking towards the group.
" Hey Token." said Kenny
" Hey Token." said the rest of the boys
" So you ready for tonight? Everyone is betting on whether or not you will chicken out." said Token
" Tell them to go fuck off." said Kenny
" Don't worry Kenny, when this is over your going to be the bravest kid in school." said Stan
" Yeah, but if (cough) you want to drop out of it, everyone will understand." said Cartman
" No they won't." said Token
" God damn it Token."
" I'll be fine, it's just a house." said Kenny, remembering the dream he had
" Hey Kyle did you check those archives that Cartman told you about." asked Token
" No." said Kyle
" Well, until you do, everyone believes Cartman."
The boys walked to class.
(I'll check them after school.) thought Kyle.
The scene is the South Park Elementary School. School is getting out and the boys walk out of the school.
" So you ready Kenny?" asked Stan
" Yeah, remember Eric always answer the phone in case my parents call." said Kenny
" Alright I'll remember." said Cartman
" Well, I'd love to stay and chat but unfortunately me and Stan have to go check something at the library." said Kyle
" We do?" said Stan
" You guys aren't gonna see me off." said Kenny
" Nope, sorry. Come on Stan." said Kyle grabbing Stan an pulling him in the direction of the library
" Those fags, come on Kenny lets go get your stuff from your house." said Cartman
" Okay." said Kenny as the two boys walked towards Kenny's house
The scene is Kenny's house. Kenny and Cartman are getting Kenny's things together.
" You boys doing okay." said Mrs. McKormick
" Fine mom." said Kenny
" Yes fine fine, can use some snacks though." said Cartman
Kenny shoves Cartman.
" Aye." said Cartman
" Well tell me if you need anything." said Mrs. McKormick leaving the room
" Well I'm all packed. I don't think I need anything else." said Kenny
" Are you sure you want to go through with this?" asked Cartman
" What's wrong dude? You've been acting really strange."
" Nothing, it's just that house is really…a creepy."
Cartman was becoming very paranoid about the house. But Kenny couldn't argue, ever since that dream he had, he's been a little scared of the house too.
" Look, nothing is going to happen to me. So don't worry." said Kenny
Cartman didn't show it but he felt a little bit calmer. Although the thought of that little girl still made him feel a bit uneasy.
The scene is the library, Stan and Kyle are looking at the old news archives on an old projector.
" Ugh, Kyle there is nothing here." said Stan tired and agitated
" Hold on, I'm sure were missing something." said Kyle
" Why couldn't we just look it up on the internet?"
" Because the archives only go as far back as 1960 for the newspaper."
No matter how many times the boys looked there was nothing that referred back to the dates of September 18, 19, or 20, 1956. They couldn't find the newspaper articles for those days so they scanned through the dates closest to those but still couldn't find out anything.
" Dude, maybe Cartman is right. I mean, the records are gone." said Stan
" That doesn't prove what he said is true. There could have been some other sort of predicament. I refuse to give up so easily." said Kyle
The boys looked through more of the archives but still they found nothing.
" Dude come on, lets go see Kenny off into the house." said Stan
" Okay fine. But I swear I'm going to find out about that house if it kills me." said Kyle
" Fine, just don't take that saying too literally." Stan joked
The boys put the projector away and pick up the boxes with the newspaper archives and took them back to the front desk.
" Uh…miss." said Kyle putting the newspaper archives on the front desk
" Yes." said The librarian
" Do you have any records for the date September 18, 1965?"
" Uh, (starts twitching) um no. Why why would you want those dates?"
" We are doing a report that is on that date." said Stan
" Um, no boys (laughs nervously) there are no records for that date. ha HA HA AH HA!"
The librarian started twitching nervously as she put the boxes in the closet behind the front desk.
Stan looks at Kyle.
" Okay that doesn't prove anything." said Kyle
" It isn't HUMAN, it isn't HUMAN! ITS FROM HELL!" screamed the librarian from the closet
" Well?" said Stan
" She's obviously schizophrenic." said Kyle
The scene is in front of old Craven Manor. Kenny is about to enter the house.
" Well good luck Kenny." said Kyle
" Yeah and remember dude that battery should last twenty hours." said Stan
" Twenty hours? What you do, rob Sony of their latest invention?" said Cartman
" Shut up Cartman. Aren't you gonna wish Kenny good luck." asked Kyle
" Yeah, yeah. Good luck with your dare Kenny. Come back in one piece."
" Thanks you guys. See ya tomorrow." said Kenny
Kenny walked towards the house, as he did he remembered Cartman's words.
" Its really more of a bet." whispered Kenny to himself as he entered the house.
