The setting is very peaceful. It’s a nice farm with lots of animals all eating grass. There are lots of trucks with really noisy engines. This cottage has a large grafito tag of a devil on the roof which also has blue and green paint on the walls below. The chimney is missing a few bricks and is very unstable. The windows are shattered by drum sticks and guitars, which seem to be intact. The bathroom sink is broken in half and the toilet, strangely enough, is missing. The walls are in the colour red with the floor being bright orange. A window is open just a little crack. What a strange house.
Suddenly, a young boy looking round about the age of 14 came in from the blazing sun outside. He looked around the horrifying house and saw a large photo of a rocker playing his guitar. He was amused by the fancy clothes and the arrow-shaped guitar which said on it, “Beware me”. In the kitchen food was everywhere. What a strange house. Upstairs lay a black cat with claws as sharp as sharks’ teeth, and a shirt on it, saying, “AC/DC”. What a strange house. Further on in the house was a bedroom that had bright yellow stools and on top of them lay some shiny tickets for the band the boy had always wanted to see. The boy snatched the tickets and ran out of the room. As he did, he trampled over the cat and fell downstairs, and then with one final sprint the boy ran out of the house.

Lauren my next door neighbour ran and saw Susie’s door open. She went up to to Susie’s room and said “ohh my god”! there is too much light blue in her room. This girl has too much, I am shocked at the Thomson family. Lauren Barns wanted to look around to investigate where they are.
Lauren was tidying her room and her cat was playing with blue string. It was playing on the stairs. Lauren walked out of her room and tripped over the string that the cat was playinbg with on the stairs and broke her arm.
When she was at the hospital she recognised someone she knew. It was Lauren. She saw and she had broken her leg.

My name is Detective Shead. One day I was called to investigate a break-in. When I got to the house I found the front door open and the window was broken too. When I got into the house I saw the trophy case. The trophies were football trophies, some of the trohpies were missing so I went up the stairs.
I found the bedroom door open. I went in and I saw lots of timetables of the next foootball match. When I looked to my left I saw the words: “Be afraid”. To the right there was a Man.U top. After seeing what had been happening I went to see the match. I saw the skill Mr Fred and after the game I went to the dressing room to question Mr Fred’s team and friends they all pointed at the same person. That was their player who didn’t play any game.
When we finished we went to his we started interviewing. He said that he wanted to he hit one fo the panaers across the face. He tried to run away but I run after him and caught him and we charged him for hitting an officer and attempted murder.

One dark, ugly misty night, I was driving down a road. I past a few houses but one caught my eye. It was weird because the door was open, so I walked into the house and left my car outside. As I walked in the lights started flickering with weird noises coming from upstairs.
I walked into the living room. Everying was dull and white but in one corner there was a red stain. On the floor the carpet was red. On a shelf there were cds,dvds and books on John Wayne. So the person must of been a John Wayne fan. As I stepped in the kitchen the phone started ringing, and they left a messge saying “Where are you? I have done it”. I did not know what it meant.
I went upstairs and went into a room and that weird noise started again. The room was all red: the walls, the carpet, the bed, the tv and the cd player. In a corner there was a bathroom which was red as well but the strange thing was the taps were running. There were pictures on the wall of the family but two people were missing because they were circled. I stepped in another room but as I stepped on the floor it started lighting and singing a song and there were a lot of toys. I stepped in the bathroom and it was empty. Nothing in it, not even shampoo. That was weird.
I came back downstaris and went outside to the patio. There was a playpark, sandpit, swimming pool, a shed and kids toys. I walked in the shed and there were very sharp tools. They looked like they were just cut, but one of the tools had red on it. Then I heard weird noises like there were ghosts. Then all of a sudden the tools started falling. I in ran for my life into the house. Under the stairway there were fingerprints and footprints on the floor leading to a door. I opened the door and there was a lot more of the red stuff on the stairs and I got to the bottom and there were pools of blood.
