Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge

***

Eight superman dressed ten year olds entered the haunted house

Everyone hid timidity, though scared as a small mouse

A venture on the hallowed eve.

No one knew what they’d receive

It was Joe’s turn to be first in case a sacrifice was needed

The creaky door filled their hearts with fright, of course never heeded

Joe pushed through ancient spiderwebs, his cape used as a shield

And the others trooped behind him, and their capes also weild

But no skeletons did they find, but one old lonely lady

She looked welcoming and surprised and was sitting at a table

“Oh my grandchildren have arrived, I’m so glad you came for tea!”

The boys were realizing what they found and sat down with relief

The lesson here an old one, don’t judge a book by its cover

The old woman needed friends and that’s who they discovered.

Fandango’s Story Starter

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

This week’s Story Starter teaser is: ALLISON STARTED LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY WHEN SHE FOUND OUT THAT…Joe had fallen for the old “It’s chocolate” when it was actually a disguised laxative. Allison’s revenge was sweet but even though Joe was at school, he was “mysteriously” missing his classes most of the day.

Simply Six Minutes

The placement of the reflection pool was an odd choice. Hardly anyone visiting loved ones’ gravesites went near it. It was rumored that one day a small girl suddenly died there. She was found face down just at the water’s edge, seemingly able to free herself, but didn’t. The people who had previously bought grave sites near it wanted to have it drained and a garden planted instead. The mysterious owner of the cemetery declined.

Doing Time

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

My face turns crimson as I look forebodingly down the prison hallway. My idea for the bank robbery did not end up the achievement I desired. The night guard on duty was supposed to be taking his usual midnight nap, but of course his plans changed. Now I’m going to be stuck in a square box for the next 12 years.

Costume

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
I thought a while before I dressed
my mother seems a bit stressed
she made a costume quite unique
hopes other costumes can’t compete
the problem is the neighbor’s dog
he loves mushrooms from the nearby bog
and digging around in the moist dirt
so mom gets him a treat to divert
his eyes as I run to our car
my costume stays on, slightly ajar
and then she safely drives
me to where the party thrives
my costume wins the prize.
