They had sent out the other seventeen to watch over the party, they were they suspected the best in the company. It had been very silent, we suspected that no one had made a sound or a move. The sun slowly climbed over the trees that were bare of their very leaves to show what remained of them. There had come a heavy pounding on the door to the house the three were in. There was a voice accompanying it, sayingCheck that section of the woods, w Jolly began to advance in the light that sun provided he found Calca standing there with an crossbow bolt in his chest, one hold holding the bowstring taunt and the bow to held in the position to shot an arrow.

“I suppose so, what did you hear?” Mica responded/
“Cal fell by the knight of darkness. There is something that they had done to cause them a great deal of harm from the knights,” Daricka said as he looked

“On our audio recorders during a 36 hour investigation, we captured the voice of a little girl saying, ‘Where are we going?’. We recorded this when we were taking a tour of the building with Dean Simpkins of Mountain Ridge Paranormal Research Society. He was telling us which door to exit from during the night and he was saying that if he heard the door alarm, it would be him running a security check,” she said.
“I want to throw things at them. I want to scream: Why weren’t you here last night? Why didn’t you save my family?”(221)
There was another knock, and another. The old woman with a sudden wrench broke free and ran from the room. Her husband followed to the landing, and called after her appealingly as she hurried downstairs. He heard the chain rattle back and the bottom bolt drawn slowly and stiffly from the socket. Then the old woman's voice, strained and panting.

The captain of the local guardsmen stood near the chained child and took a deep breath. "Citizens and guests of Eir Village!" he yelled as if he was going to announce his proudest achievement. "This runt has plagued us for years. One of the Cursed Generation denied by the gods and blessed by demons. He has committed a numerous amount of crimes within the past twenty-four hours: Theft and vandalism are among the minor occurrences," he glared at the boy. "He has eluded us for too long and now, he's here because of murder."
The house on Peregrine Lane was legend. It had been the focal point of countess legends and superstitions. Its stone turret dominated the end of the street, slicing the house in two identical pieces. The entire house was made of stone and covered in unusual purple ivy. To most of the town it a place to stay well away from, but for the Widow Fowler and her two tenants it was home. Alex and Mark ghosted around the side of the house. Mark walked pointedly towards an oblong rock that would have been non-descript to anyone else. But even as he drew near, a symbol started to burn into the lower left hand corner of the stone. . Casting a quick glance over his shoulder, Mark drew a small pendant and held it over the symbol.
The space above them buckled. The floating lantern globes heaved upward to the enchanted night sky by the power of his words. The lamps up and down The District shattered, along with every window popping inward. Even a couple of fire hydrants took notice of his might by exploding up many stories high. Wizards, Warlocks and anyone else within the range of his voice dropped to the ground onto their knees. Their hands clasped their ears, heads bowed in pain as they grimaced.
In this story, like the others, the rather ordinary narrator descends into madness and makes expectations break and fear form. The raven itself actually contributes to fear as well. The raven does not change at all as it only stands still and repeats, “Nevermore,” to the narrator.
...hes upon to the Greek goddess of wisdom, Athena, and believes this to be a sign. In his mind the raven is the bringer of wisdom and so the narrator hallucinates the smallest thoughts into overly dramatic ideas of what this ravens presence means. His lack of wisdom throughout “The Raven” creates a more surreal story with his loss of a loved one, the god of prophecy, and the god of death.
Usually, their home is silent, but when one day the narrator suddenly hears something inside another part of the house, the siblings escape to a smaller section, locked behind a solid oak door. In the intervening days, they become frightened and solemn; on the one hand noting that there is less housecleaning, but regretting that the interlopers have prevented them from retrieving many of their personal belongings. All the while, they can occasionally hear noises from the other
The particular story I collected takes place in Philadelphia, where ghost stories are plentiful. Philadelphia is an old city with a rich cultural heritage, and our founding fathers made history in the place that was once our nation’s capital (Eidmann). Many believe that their spirits and spirits of those from colonial times still lurk around.

The Horror story of “Diary Of A Haunting” was written by M. Verano. The main character is Paige. Paige is very capable of what she believes in. She also is very strong and fearless and curious about what is going on in her house. The theme of my book is “If You Have Something To Say, Say It.” I believe that Paige knew something was going on, but she was too afraid to say it because she was soon to know if her family would think shes crazy. Since she didn't say anything things got worse. I believe it is important to speak up if your know that something is wrong.
