He stopped at a gate and saw a sign that said “No Trespassing”. He walked on and saw a gate with a lock. He opened the lock and the chain fell. The gate opened with a loud creaking sound. He looked around with his flashlight and spotted the full moon. Just then clouds covered the sky and a wolf howled. Lightening flashed. All of a sudden, bats flew out of a tree. On another tree an owl woke up and hooted. The thunder sounded. The young man continued on towards a big, scary house. He climbed the stairs. On the porch, a rocking chair rocked all by itself and squeaked loudly. How can that be? Music played. A person screamed. The lights flickered.
