A Very Gothic Story

[Fierce Critter]

My mother just tracked down a whole bunch of papers from my elementary school days. This story was submitted in what I think was 4th grade creative writing.

Verbatim with spelling & capitalization as original.

A Narrow Escape for my Worst Enemy

My name is Barbra Nixam and I am 14 years old. My worst Enemy is Julie Cosnik and shes 14 also. One day she went down to the old "Manic" house wich we call the haunted house. She was dared too enter it and say mean things about the dead Manics. she had not gone far when she heard organ music! It was coming from the ballroom. She went to see what it was. A minut later she screamed! Nobody was playing it! She ran upstairs and at the last step who should she meet but dead Dad Manic with a sword in his hand! He ran after here and just as she was going out the door he threw a dagger at her! But it disappeared when it went past the dorr. Just before she left he told her to be nice to Barbra and now she is my best freind.
