Goosebumps: Scarecrows strike at midnight
Hi, I’m Logan Martin.
I have a weird story to tell you. It all started when I went on a field
trip to a farm.”These are things that keep crows away from the plants” a farmer
said. I looked at one of the scarecrows.”I
swear that scarecrow just looked at me” I said in my mind. When the field
trip was over, my 2 cousins, Laura and
Wade Martin, sat beside me. ”What do you want to do when we get to your house?”
Laura said.” I’m going to do my homework when I get home” I said. When we got
home, I went straight to my room to do my homework. Laura came in after me.”
Boo!” said Laura. “You scared me!” I said.”We should go back to the farm because the farmer sounded
kind of nervous” said Laura. “OK” I said.”We’ll go tomorrow after school” I
said.
CHAPTER 2
The next day after school we went back to the farm. But this
time we stayed ‘til midnight to see if anything was going on. We met the farmer
in an old barn. He was sitting in an old rocking chair.”What are YOU doing here at 11:45 at night?” The farmer
said.”You should get out of here now!!!” The farmer said. “OK” I said. So we
headed out the door. Right when we were heading out the gate, we heard some
groaning coming from behind us. So we looked behind us.”Oh no” I said
CHAPTER 3
We were surrounded by the scarecrows. All of the sudden,
something grabbed my arm.”I’m dead” I thought in my mind.”Logan…Logan!!!!!!!!!!!”
I heard. It was Laura and Wade being taken away by 2
scarecrows!”Nnnnnnoooooooooo!!!!!!” I said. That’s all I remember before I
blacked out. I came to my senses a few hours later. I found myself in a jail
cell. “What did I do wrong!!??” I said. Then I realized the guards were
scarecrows.”SCARECROWS!!!!!!!” I said in a scream.
CHAPTER 4
“This is bad, bad, bad, bad!!!” I said. “How am I going to
get out of here??” I said. Then I remembered: I took karate lessons last year
from my friend\fake uncle Larry! So I used my karate and sliced the bars in
two. Then I used the same skills and did the same thing with the scarecrows’
heads. I got out of there in a flash. Then I spotted another jail with
scarecrows in it. I Thought I heard Laura and Wade. So I snuck in there and
looked through the jail cells. Eventually, I found Laura and Wade. “LOGAN!!!”
They shouted. And with all the commotion, scarecrows came down the aisle. So I
got Laura and Wade out of there in a flash. We went to the barn again. We saw
the farmer.”Come with me” he said.
CHAPTER 5
The farmer took us to a basement in the barn. He told us a
story of the haunted farm. “One day a bunch of criminals shot a bunch of
brothers together. When the cops came to arrest the robbers, the cops didn’t
want to let the family know that their sons were dead. So the cops put them in
scarecrows. Now, the brothers are still alive for their revenge” the farmer
said. When the story finally finished, we got out of there in a flash with the
farmer.
CHAPTER 6
The next day I went to school. The farmer sleeps in the
spare room in my house now. Back to the subject. When I got to school, Laura
and Wade bothered me again.”Quit it!!!!!!!!” I said.”We have to go back to the
farm again. Said Laura. ”NO WAY” I
shouted. Laura and Wade kept on saying “please” until they got it their
way.”Fine, we’ll go tomorrow.”
CHAPTER 7
The next day we went back to the farm. It was 11:30 at night. Laura, Wade and I all brought different guns.
Wade brought a bazooka and a flame thrower. Laura brought a sniper rifle and an
ak-47. I brought a machine gun and a rifle. By 11:50, we headed down to the
farm. “This is-“ I said never finishing my sentence as tons of scarecrows came
our way.
CHAPTER 8
The scarecrows pounded on the door. We aimed our guns at the
door. The scarecrows finally broke down the door.”Get some” I said. After I
said that, we all started shooting.”Come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” I said. I
snuck into the base of the scarecrows. I set off a bomb in the base. I ran out
of there in a flash. The base blew up. As the base blew up, all of the
scarecrows that weren’t in the base fell to the ground. “They died!!” I said.
“Thank goodness” Laura said.
CHAPTER 9
The next day I went to school.”What do you want to do when
we get home?” Laura said.”I’m going to do my homework when I get home.” I said. “OK!” Laura said. Looks like
everything is back to normal, at least, for now…
