Chapter 2

"What are you talking about horror stories?" Chris asked Mark. "What I'm trying to say is Chris, why don't we tell some scary stories. Do any of you believe in urban legends?" He asked them. They all shook their heads, "Well gather around as I tell you six terrifying stories that will scare the hell out of you!" He told them. Everyone just nodded as they gathered in the cafeteria, they grabbed some blanklets and sat on the floor in circle as Mark and Kane sat in the middle of the circle.

"Alright little brother you want to tell the first story?" Mark asked him. Kane just smiled and nodded, "Sure! My first story is about The Fatal Tan!" He told them.

"Wait a minute how is getting a tan scary?" Brie asked him. "I'll tell you! How many of you ladies ever used a tanning bed?" Kane asked the divas. Only a few raised their hands, "I see! Did any of you ever ask yourself what if I got trapped inside a tanning bed?" He asked them. They all shook their heads, "Well I'm about to tell you! I call this story...

The Fatal Tan

"A new tanning salon had just opened in Miami, Florida called Tan Alot! It was very popular considering it had only been opened for a few months. Everyone teenage girl and the younger women went to this place every day. Until one fatal Saturday afternoon, a young girl named April and her friends wanted to get a tan before they went to the beach that Sunday with some guys from school. So they all decided to go the new Tanning salon that had just opened. "Are you sure about this?" Nicole asked April. "Yeah I heard a story about one girl who wanted a tan and got fried to a crisp." Paige told her. "Come on girls that's just a myth, it never happened. Now come on!" She told them as they walked inside the building.

As they walked inside, April walked up to the desk and asked the lady if they were full. The lady looked up and smiled, "No we have three rooms available right now!" She told her. April clapped for joy, "Yes that's great how much are they?" AJ asked her. "It'll be $60 all together." She told her. "Okay!" AJ told her handing her the money. "Alright then this way please!" She told them walking each one to a room. Each room had one tanning bed, so no one would be disturbed.

AJ walked in her room and noticed how the tanning bed was made, "Wow these people really are into new technology!" She smiled to herself turning the knob on the side to a 5 so she wouldn't be to red when she got out. She set the timer, took off her top and shorts and got into the tanning bed.

While inside she put some patches over her eyes, after a few minutes she thought the timer would go off but it didn't. So she tried to open the door but apparently something had her trapped inside. She started to scream for help but no one heard her. As a spark went off and she started to kick and punch her way out.

Meanwhile down the hall, Nikki and Paige were done with their tan when they wondered where April was. Paige asked the lady at the desk if she saw April leave but the lady shook her head. "That's wierd! Where could she...!" She was cut off when they heard a loud popping noise coming from the room April was in.

Nikki opened the door and saw nothing but smoke. "Ahhhhhhhh!" She screamed. There she was lying on the floor, the burnt crisp body of AJ Lee.

"So what do you think? Was that scary enough for you?" Kane asked the ladies. They all just sat in silence, "Well I can tell one thing I'm never getting a tan ever again!" Nattie told him. "Same with me no matter what never again!" Brie told him. Kane just started smiling, "I told you it was scary!" He told them.

"So who wants another story?" Mark asked them. Everyone raised their hands as they gathered closer for another story. "Alright little brother I think I'm gonna tell the next story." Mark told him. Kane nodded, "Okay then everyone here knows how much it sucks to have a bad hotel room. Well what if you checked into a room, but the guest before you never checked out?" He asked them. No one spoke a word, "Alright well I call this story...

The Body Under The Bed

A young couple were just o their way back from vacation when it started to get late, so they decided to stay at a local hotel. They pulled into the parking lot of Carson Hotel. "Wow this place sure is small!" Stephanie told her husband. Paul nodded, "I know sweetie, but its the only hotel on the street and it's just for tonight." Paul told her. "Okay!" She told him as they got out of the car and walked into he lobby. Paul walked to the front desk and asked the clerk if there were any rooms available for the night. "Yes sir there is one room left! Would you like to check in?" The young man asked him.

Paul nodded as he grabbed his wallet, "How much will it be?" he asked him. He clerk looked at his computer and started typing, "It wil be $50 dollars sir." He told him. "Okay!" Paul told him handing the money to the clerk. "Alright you're in room 214 right around the corner." He spoke handing Paul the keys for their room. "Thank you!" Steph told the young clerk. "You're welcome! Enjoy your stay at Carson Hotel!" He told them.

Paul and Stephanie nodded as they walked outside to their car. Paul drove to the far side of the hotel where their room was at. "Alright room 214 here it is!" Paul told his wife as he opened the door and they walked inside the room.

As they walked inside they didn't notice the smell until later that night. Stephanie smelled the odor first and woke her husband up. "Paul wake up! Come on get up!" She whispered shoving him some. After several minutes Paul finally woke up, " What is it Steph?" He asked her. "Do you smell that horrible odor?" She asked him.

"What odor? I don't smell..." he was cut off by the odor as it got stronger and stronger. "Wait I do smell it and its gotten strong. It smells like it's coming from under the bed." He told her getting out the bed. Stephanie got out as well, as they searched the entire room and then Paul checked the mattress. "I think that smell is coming from under the mattress. Can you hand me my small bag Stephanie?" Paul asked her. She nodded as she grabbed the bag off the table and handed it to her husband. "Thank you! Paul reached into the bag and grabbed a pocket knife his grandfather gave him when he turned 21 years old. He cut the bottom of the matress and saw something horrible, "Oh no! Stephanie I think we better go now!" Paul told her stepping away from the mattress quickly. Steph looked confused, "Why?" She asked him.

"Because that smell is coming from a corpse under the bed!" He told her. "Okay let's go now!" She told him as they ran for the door, but were stopped by the young guy from the lobby. "Hey what's the rush? Leaving so soon?" He asked them with a evil smile. Paul just stared at him, "We got an emergency call and need to leave immediately so goodbye!" Paul told him trying to leave.

"I'm sorry but we have a motto here! Once you check in you never check out!" He told them holding a machete in his hand laughing. "Ahhhhhhhh!" They both screamed knowing no one could hear them, they were both doomed.

"Ahhhh!" Everyone screamed. "Now I'm sure that one scared you!" Mark asked them. Again everyone sat in complete silence until Paul spoke, "I wasn't scared." He told him hiding behind big show. "Oh really then why are you hiding behind the big guy." Mark asked him smiling.

"Oh I didn't notice!" Paul told him sitting back beside Stephanie. Steph just shook her head, "You were terrified!" She told him.

"Well now that we know Paul was scared, I'm gonna tell one more story, If you all are up to it." He told them. They all nodded in excitement..

"Okay now this one is really a scare! Hope you ladies are not scared of clowns. Because my next story will definitely scare you to death."

"Who here hates clowns?" He asked them.
