freeze your heart! Judy was so hor-
rified she ran upstairs and locked
the door,
Then after getting up enough cour-
age she went back down to the kit
chen. Still shaking and her heart
beating fast she snapped on the
light only to see that same spectral
face staring at her through the Win
dow. This time she just shrank back
and screamed, "Help!' and then, she

she heard an ugly unearthly laugh.
Then no more. =.
She awoke, still lying on the floor.
She tried to remember what hap
pened. She did remember, with a
shudder.
Judy was determined to get to the

downstairs. On the kitchen table
she found note:

planned to find out; and did. I'm

Judy was relieved but was de-
termined to get even with "the ghost
or John. Not now though, because she
was so tired, so tired -. She went
back to bed and slept peacefully the
whole night through.
