Goosebumps An Old Story Novels & Stories

Most of the pages in the front were smudged too terribly to read anything but once it became legible, I started to shake with happiness. It was a story book! Eagerly I began reading the first story that wasn't destroyed. MY mouth dropped open in wonder at this finding. It was a shadow elf storybook, and a very old one. Page after page I flipped through the words absorbing every word that I could. The stories were full of ghastly creatures similar to the ghoulcat and the heroes of ancient Gwathendor who fought them. And their lady loves that they saved along the way. Soon enough I was hunched over the bed with the little book in my lap and my head in the clouds.

No, little one, it's not been a hundred years yet, and besides, we both know your mother would never part with you for anything," Grandma said. I had heard enough, so I got up from my hiding spot, went to my basement room, and locked the door behind me. Grandma's story replayed in my eight-year-old mind over and over again. I was imagining the possibility of such a thing being true. Everyone knew Crowburn was not a natural place, but no one ever paid enough attention to find out why. I pondered this until I fell into a deep sleep.

In 1890, my great-grandmother Takoda was only a child when her ancestors told her stories while they huddled around the campfire with handmade blankets from buffalo hide. Later, she told my mother the same stories about humans who could walk on all fours and pale skins and drink your blood. Nowadays, no one talks about the past, which leads us to believe they are just scary stories the tribe elders tell for fun or to put fear into the youngsters so we won’t enter the woods outside our borders. However, I believe nothing they say. But my grandmother does and never lets my family forget it. I usually get grounded for laughing at her, thinking she’s a crazy old woman.

Found more bodies. Discovered evidence of a hastily abandoned camp. Found claw prints on structures that were too high for any creature to reach. And they found a message. Carved into the wall of the old general store. THE OLD ONES WAKE. THE SEAL BREAKING WAS JUST THE BEGINNING. Clara felt her blood run cold. "The old ones?" "I have heard stories," Marcus said slowly. "Legends. About creatures that existed before Silverbloods. Before the first packs. Things that were sealed away so long ago most thought they were myths." "But they are not myths," Clara said. "No. They are not."

Everyone was happy until they played a game which they shouldn’t have The fun they were having wasn’t enough for them, they desired for some scare and that they got. They decided to tell each other spooky stories. The oldest kid among them told the story of what happened to the owners of the house—of course he didn’t tell it as it happened because no one knows what exactly happened and so to fill that void he added more than he should to the story to make it spookier—it’s not like you could blame the kid

With a smile on my face, I told her “No, it's Tanzania, a small town in Tanzania actually. Ummm do you want to handle the dishes now or after the movie cus after the movie I’m going to be very tired.” “Nah don’t worry ill handle it, and weee are watching goosebumps no buts” “ Hazel but” “ I said no buts, now shiii the movie is stating” Hazel responded and I sighed in defeat to her statement sadly, it hadn’t been up to20 mins into the movie and I was feeling some serious goosebumps already. Before I could control it my body began to vibrate subtly and I knew it was happening again. ‘I was probably going to see something I wasn’t going to like.’

I asked frowning, I have never heard about this. Ray laughed, “ It was in the bedtime stories, my mother and granny used to recite them to us to make us scared of going out in the middle of the night. you know how pups are! As soon as they start shifting that’s what they all want to do for a long time. The male pups even go out at night to run through the woods. So to keep me and my brothers safe, my mother and granny told us this myth. How at night a creature who is not man nor beast roams the landing of woods and if pups go there, he will eat them.”

"Ms. Walsh, I heard it's your birthday today. I hope you don't mind me showing up uninvited?" At her cue, someone led in a small, snow-white puppy. "Its name is Elmo. Isn't it adorable?" As the fluffy puppy bounced toward her, Evelyn instinctively stepped back, bumping into a table. Her face went pale, and a wave of fear and panic surged in her eyes. "Take it away," she said, her voice trembling slightly. "I don't like dogs."

I stage whisper. “You’re going to frighten the boy with those spooky stories,” Jenni scolds. “I’m not scared.” Hayden puffs his chest out, all bravado. “I want to hear about Gordon.” Jenni brings over a package of hotdogs and a couple of roasting sticks, the kind that retract to get really small and easily transportable. She extends them and stabs a hotdog onto one before handing it to Hayden. “Did you know there was once gold discovered in these mountains?” I ask.

I had only smelled them once, when Grandmamma had taken me on an herb picking trip one time. My heart started beating a little faster. The odd, shuffling shoes shifted closer to me and I knew whoever these people were that they were standing close by, simply staring at me! My skin broke out all over in goosebumps. Who were they?! I was dying to open my eyes and see what I already knew in my heart, just couldn’t yet let myself believe. “We shouldn’t be here!” Whispered a man’s voice. “Well only get us all in trouble, my love!”
