One Week Alone At Home

Greetings Kiddies. I was just HACKING MY SUITCASE for a SLOP-I-CAL VACATION hee-hee-hee! I have my PASS AWAY PORT and my SPLEEN CARD ready. On a related TERRIFYING-TOPIC, here's a FESTERING-FABLE, about the SCARE-RENTS I mean PARENTS of a TEENAGE GHOUL I mean GIRL, who go on a trip for a SHRIEK, and leave her...

Back in the Spring of 1959, a teenage girl stood within the doorway of a house up, in northern-Vermont on day. She smiled and waved at a man and woman in a blue Chevy in the driveway of the home. They smiled, waved back at her, and the teenager said to them: "goodbye Mom and Dad. Have a good time at Aunt Susan's". "Goodbye, Jenny, thank you Sweetheart!" her mother and father said back to her and her father drove away then, as Jenny waved at them. Jenny closed the front door and walked into the kitchen. As she stood by the sink, a breeze blew through the open-window behind it. Then, there was a sound of a door creaking-open coming from somewhere upstairs. Jenny looked up, hearing it. She walked upstairs and into a bedroom, where a closet-door was slightly-open. Jenny walked over to the closet and opened the door the rest of the way. It was a normal closet, but there were five long streaks of green slime on the inside of the door. She touched one of the streaks with her finger and smelled it. "This slime smells like raw fish!" she said to herself with a disgusted look on her face. Jenny got to the doorway of the bedroom and heard a low growl coming from within the open-closet suddenly, causing her to gasp and jerk. She looked at the open-closet and rushed out of the bedroom, closing the bedroom-door then.

That evening, Jenny sat on the sofa within the living room of her home beside another teenage girl. They both watched "Leave It To Beaver" start on t.v. then. "A whole week alone here for you, Jenny. Are you gonna invite Johnny over at all?" the other teenage girl wondered of Jenny. "I know Ruby. Maybe. He is cute" she answered the teenager. "He is absolutely" Ruby said. Both Jenny and Ruby went out, into the kitchen and Jenny handed Ruby a big bowl of popcorn from on the counter. A black hand with long digits turned off the t.v. in the living-room then and the girls stood, eating popcorn in the kitchen. They walked back into the living room and heard a low growl. The sound of a dog barking outside was heard then and Ruby and Jenny both side in relief. During the evening, Jenny slept in another bedroom upstairs. Meanwhile, a robber smashed a living room window with a crowbar and climbed into the house, shining a flashlight then. As he shined his flashlight around Jenny's living-room, the robber pulled a bottle of Ripple out of the sack he had with him, opened it, and drank some of the liquor. Then he walked into the kitchen, turned on the light, and put the bottle on the table. There was the sound of a low growl coming from within the living room again, causing the robber to gasp, turn around, and shine his flashlight into the darkened-room. The robber's flashlight shined on the t.v. and there were five long streaks of green slime on the television-screen. He walked slowly back into the living room, shining his flashlight all around. Footsteps were heard scurrying up the stairs, causing the robber to gasp and shine his flashlight at the staircase.

Jenny was still asleep within her bed, as the robber rushed into her bedroom, shining his flashlight on her. The robber shook Jenny on her arm, waking her up. She gasped in fear and surprise at him and he got ready to hit her with his crowbar, but the bedroom light turned on suddenly, and the black hand with long fingers grabbed the robber's neck then. Jenny screamed and it was some kind of humanoid-monster standing behind the robber, with black flesh, and no face, except for bright-red-shining-eyes. As it growled lowly, the robber screamed in horror, the humanoid-monster scraped its other long fingers across his chest, ripping his shirt-open in five long rips. Then, the thing snapped the robber's neck, killing him instantly. Jenny screamed more, jumped out of her bed and ran out of her bedroom, as the thing growled deeply, holding the corpse. in its green slimy-dripping-hand. Jenny ran downstairs, into the kitchen, and looked up, hearing the thing growl louder upstairs. Then she ran passed the staircase, as she still could hear the monster growling upstairs, ran out the front door, and slammed it shut behind her. The following day, Jenny walked back into her living room with Ruby and a teenage boy following her. "So, I hope for your sake that that robber is gone, Jenny" the teenage boy said to her. "Thanks Johnny. I hope so too" she replied to him. The trio walked upstairs and Jenny peeked into her bedroom. The light was off. She walked into the other bedroom and saw the closet creak-open slightly, causing her to gasp.

Johnny ran passed her and saw the closet. Ruby ran into the bedroom too then and grabbed Jenny's shoulder from behind her. Johnny, Jenny and Ruby walked over quietly to the closet and Johnny opened the door of the closet the rest of the way, hesitantly. As he, Jenny and Ruby peeked into the closet, the white light within it was on, and the black humanoid-monster, stood within it, blinking his bright-red-glowing-eyes, growling deeply. They screamed in surprised-horror, racing to the other side of the bedroom then. The thing wiggled its long digits and long toes, then picked up, the dead skeleton of the robber from behind it. The monster flung it out, causing it to fall to the floor, making Johnny, Jenny and Ruby scream. Then it leaped out of the closet, growling deeply and jumped out the open-bedroom-window. Jenny sighed in relief and smiled.

Hee-Hee, talk about SKELETONS IN YOUR CLOSET, eh, kiddies? Good thing for Jenny that monster was GROWLING AROUND her home at the SAME SLIME that robber was heh-heh!
