In English, Our theme right now is Scary stories. We're about to read Frankenstein. I've never read it so I'm excited. I love scaring myself. We've also read some short scary stories like "Lamb to the Slaughter" by Roald Dhal. Other short stories we're going to read are:
-"The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson
-"The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allen Poe
-"The Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Allen Poe
-"The Black Cat" by Edgar Allen Poe
-"Boarded Window" by Ambrose Bierce

Also Halloween is coming soon and It would be nice to have a contest for that as well

There are going to be different contests. You can join as many as you want. I don't mind if you use an alt for every one of them, but no more than one on each.

Carve the Pumpkin
I don't see how pumpkins are scary...Even if they do get cut out in a scary way. Oh well. Carve this Pumpkin anyway you want. It can be scary, happy, sad, mad, crazy, exhausted, confused, anything. Make it an original. I'll post all the pumpkins here for everyone to see :)

Find your costume!
Put on a costume! But there's a rule here. NOTHING can come form the magic cupboards. Nothing at all. If I see the smallest thing from there, I will not hesitate to disqualify. I have a doll with almost all the cupboard items. So don't even think about cheating. Anyway, you can use any other store you like but please no furniture. If you want to add an animal, then that's okay, but no scenes. If you want me to take a screenshot, let me know. I'll post the screenshots here. Let me know what your costume is though ^_^"

"Halloween Now"

That night has come,
That time of the year,
When demons are released,
In search of fear,
To feast upon lost souls,
As the dawn draws near,
And according to 'The Tempest',
By Sir William Shakespeare,
'Hell is empty,
And all the devils are here'

That night has come,
To play trick or treat,
Children come to your door,
Demanding sweets,
Dressed as vampires and witches,
Fairies and pixies,
Hoping you'll have something,
For them to eat.

That night has come,
Here the werewolves howl,
Hear the children scream,
Hear the black cats meow,
Hear the bat's wings flap,
Hear the wind blow loud,
Feel the cobwebs on your skin,
Though they make no sound,
And think to yourself,
'It's Halloween now!'

Story:
The door creaked as she entered the house. It was dark but the burning fires of the lanterns outside made it easier to see. She walked on forward carefully touching the furniture nearby. No dust. But in every abandoned home there must be some dust shouldn't there?
She walked slowly to the stairs.This is more terrifying than I thought. She gulped at the thought and continued up the stairs. Every step she took it seemed that the stairs would fall apart of creaking.If Alyssa was right then there must be a red door here.. She walked down the hallway searching for the red door. She walked up and down the hallways,one turn after another searching where it could be.
She stopped dead in her tracks. Her heart beat stopped. She felt something on her shoulder. "Lookin' for mee?"
She looked over her shoulder gasped in horror. She saw the most ugliest thing she has ever seen.It's the witch.. She started to run but the witch caught hold of her legs. She screamed as the witch grabbed her to her death..
Poem:
Children will laugh in excite
As it is Halloween night
They'll dress up as fairies
Dancing in the moonlight
They'll stuff their face with many delights
But who will not attend Halloween?

Oh but is it not Witch Green?
She'll up all night
With potions and things
Thinking that Halloween is a terrible sight!

Poem:
Birds caught on fire
Feathers light as air
gruesome in horror
Vanishes into smoke

Boulders break, darkness creeps
Over the lawns the shadow seeks
Bodies drag themselves to take
Their moans soaring as trees break

What's to haunt, tonight?
Asked the fiery night
What's to feast, for light?
Asked the shadow with might

Night tolls its hour
Hear the screams of men
women, child, caught on fire
For Halloween never rests

Watch the Shadow of Halloween
Creep on over your souls
Watch as it feasts on your fear
It can turn you into Ghouls

Feel the hollowness that is you
The Time is slowly ticking near
Your soul the Shadow reaped
Yes, Halloween is indeed here.

Halloween night,
Full of fright...
Cats hidden,
In a hat…
Scary screams,
Haunting your dreams…
Stuck in the dark,
With no sign of spark…
Hunted houses,
With a mouse…
Naughty spells,
At the sound of each bell…
Petrifying monsters,
On a poster…
Dancing skeletons,
What’s going on…
Transparent ghosts,
That’s what scares me the most…
Strange shadows,
With the nightglow…
Thirsty vampires,
In their big empire…
Evil demons,
Hands full of bones…

What a scary night is Halloween…

The doom of Halloween.

Full moon,
It'll come soon.

Witches laugh,
While they make a green bath.

Werewolfs claw,
The ravens caw.

In the night,
Full of fright.

Scary vampires,
They make evil empires.

Evil witches
Burry you in deep ditches.

In the grave,
Zombie slave.

In the mist,
Let's make a list.

Werewolfs, zombies, ghosts, they will have their way.
Vampires, witches, mummies, no human will stay.
