The Chase
We were supposed to be going to a haunted house; just to see if it really existed. Or so I thought. It started when one of my friends Jesse said "let's go check this haunted thing out to see if it really exists." "Sure why not" I said. That was the beginning of a long and frightful night. I had no idea what was in store for me next.
"We really need to check this place out" Jesse said. "I've heard your suppose to see a ghost or something" he said. "Whatever I guess I'll just come along for the ride" I said. We started on our way around seven thirty right after out got out of work. I have no idea where we had gone but it was pretty far from where I worked. It took about a half hour to get there. "I think were there" Jesse said. What he was referring to was the long dark road that led to this so called haunted house. As we started down the road I got a chill down my spine and I already knew that this was a bad idea. All of a sudden our car stopped. "What" I said. "I think were there" Jesse said. We got out of the car and started walking up a rocky driveway.
I didn't know what to expect when we got to the house. We walked a little farther and it was very dark out. Then the next thing I notice is this bright light shining threw some trees. Almost if it was a search light on a guard tower at a prison. Jesse and I got closer to the light; then a house appeared. I didn't understand "this place is haunted?" I said. Then all of a sudden I hear a voice say "sick'em." Then some barking came from the house. I turned and took off for our car down the driveway. We both reached the car and got in. "Go go go go" I kept saying. Then Jesse stepped on the gas pedal and we were off.
"Man that was close" Jesse Said. We pulled over to the side of the dark road to try and figure out what is going on. As we were talking headlights appeared in back of us. We didn't know who it was but we took off like a cannon ball. Then the person in that car sped up and started chasing us. "What is this guy doing" I said to Jesse. "Is he crazy?" He was driving like a maniac chasing us down this narrow dark road. Our car was doing sixty mph in a twenty five mph zone. I was really scared because we were going so fast on such a narrow and windy road. Not to mention it was pitch dark too.
We came out to a main street and almost hit a car because Jesse took the turn to hard. We didn't care to stop so we kept going. The crazy guy was still behind us not giving up. I saw a sign that said the highway was a half mile up. "Let's take this on ramp and will lose this guy on the highway" I said.
