A Scary Story...

            I was listening to music in my castle bedroom when  I heard a strange noise. My parents had  rented rooms in the local castle so we could spend some days living in a castle.
          Suddenly I heard creepy sounds coming from upstairs. I was really scared. I didn't know what was making the weird noise and my heart was beating fast.
          I couldn't call my parents as they were watching TV in another room of the castle. A few minutes later I decided to investigate what the noise was upstairs. As I was walking up the dark  and lonely staircase I heard the noise again and this time was louder and closer to me.
            When I got to the top of the stairs my sister jumped out and frightened me so much to make me scream loud. She told me  that she was playing a joke on me . That time I was so annoyed and angry with my sister but I was more relaxed that was not a ghost.

Writing: A scary story

It was Sunday afternoon when we arrived at my friend's hotel who I had known since from high school in Heraklion. That hotel was so big and his project was "a castle night" which was on the restaurant and it was nice with music. dancing and delicious foods, like "king burger"
  After the restaurant, at midnight we went to our rooms to sleep. I was listening to music in my castle bedroom when I heard a strange noise which was coming from the corridor. I was really scared and I walked to the door slowly to see what it was but I didn't see anything. I wanted to speak to my parents but they were watching TV.
  I was saying " Finally I go out there to see what it is" and I went to the corridor. One minute later my brother went from a dark side and scared me. I laughed because I was scared  with my brother and I thought that a ghost was in the corridor.

A Scary Story...

   I was listening to music in my castle bedroom when I heard a strange noise. Me and my family had rented rooms in a castle, to stay there for our holidays. The castle was too big and each of us had his own huge bedroom. The first night, while my parents had gone to their bedroom, I was feeling lonely. The howl castle was dark and the wind, outside, was howling.
   Suddenly, my bedroom lights went out. I was frightened. I couldn't call my parents as they were on the upper levels. I turned the lights on and I continued listening to music. A few minutes later it happened again. But that time, I also heard some weird footsteps coming from upstairs. First I thought that my brother was walking , but then I realised that he was sleeping on the lower levels. I was really scared.
   A bit later, I decided to go upstairs, to find who was caused all these strange things. My heart was beating louder and louder as I was climbing the stairs. Just then, I heard something strange, like a wolf. Then I started climbing faster and faster, when I saw my dog. He was barking , because he hurt  his knee. I called my mother and we took him to the vet.
   Two hours later, we came back home. I was very tired and upset about everything happened that night. But I was also happy, because my dog was healthy. It was an exhausting night. Αποτέλεσμα εικόνας για scottish castlesA

Danger at shark rock

After the ship crashed, Jenny went to her grandfather's house and asked him what they had to do. The other day many people were on the beach and were waiting for emergency services to do something. One time Jenny saw a woman to the golden cliffs. She had a camera. She shouted to her grandfather to see her and her grandfather didn't say anything. She left at the beach and she went to her grandfather's house. She wrote a note which it was saying that she went to the golden cliffs. When she arrived to the golden cliffs, she saw the woman who was talking to her phone with her friend Guy. They would go to the shipwreck where the shark rock was and get the uranium.

The Challenge

          After the summer holidays Helen Smith was impatient  to see her friends again.'' I am not excited  about starting the school year'', she thought , '' but going to the swimming pool every day for six weeks is boring. Now I'll be with my friends again.''
      Lisa was waiting for her at the school entrance .''Hi!'' they both shouted happily.
      ''You look fantastic!'' Helen exclaimed.
       ''You too. You are so brown !''said Lisa, smiling, and they put their arms together to compare suntans.
        '' Don't you know that it is dangerous to be in the sun for long time?'' said a voice behind them. It was Bobby , wearing a Los Angeles Lakers T-shirt.
       '' You are only wearing that T-shirt so that everybody knows that you were on holiday in America.'' Helen said. ''That isn't cool.''
         Lisa laughed and Bobby's face became red . ''OK, so I am not cool , but I'll  tell you this ,'' he said. '' Nobody in America wants suntan anymore.'' The girls looked at each other  and smiled.
          ''Are we going to hear 'in America this' and 'in America that' all year?'' Helen asked. '' Because I can tell you, I'm not interested.''
        ''So you don't want to  hear about  my driving licence?'' Bobby said.
         '' Your  what?'' Helen asked.
        '' Don't be ridiculous,'' said Lisa , but Bobby showed them a plastic card with his photograph in one corner.
       '' Maybe it is from Disneyland !'' Helen said. The two girls looked at the card carefully. Across the top , it said, 'US Driving Licence'. It also had Bobby's full name , Robert David leader, and his day of birth on it . I was real!
       ''But you are only 16,'' Lisa insisted.'' You are too young!''
