Spooky Nook Climbing Novels & Stories

Tracey ruffled Nicki's hair and reassured her, "What are you afraid of? This tree is short. Even if you fall, it won't hurt. Besides, I'm here. I won't let you fall." "Let's go." Spike took off his coat and ran over. "Wait for me, Hubert," Nicki said. Tracey instructed the servants to take the freshly picked pomegranates inside to make juice, then followed the children. Mable had slept late the previous night and wanted to be in bed a little longer in the morning. However, she was awakened early by the noise downstairs. "Slow down, Spike. Be careful and hold on to Nicki." "You’re amazing, Spike. Who taught you to climb trees so skillfully? You don't seem like a first-timer."

"You ready?" "No. But I'm going anyway." Beside me, Caspian was utterly still—the stillness of a predator, of centuries of patience, of a man about to face his greatest fear. "The passage is east, hidden in the cliff face. We'll have to climb." "I'm a librarian," I pointed out. "I climb ladders. Sometimes stools. This is different." Kael grinned despite everything. "Good thing you have two supernatural idiots to catch you if you fall."

Though there weren't many children at the playground, Nora bit her bottom lip, scanning the area anxiously, praying this moment remained as peaceful and fun as it was without getting ruined by anyone. "Come on, Nora! Let's play together," Max called out to her, pulling her out of her thoughts. She grinned. "Alright!" Nora spotted a set of monkey bars nearby, and she decided to give them a try. She climbed up the ladder and grabbed onto the first bar, hoisting herself up with ease. She moved from bar to bar, feeling a sense of accomplishment with each one she crossed. She was almost at the end when she heard a shout from below.

I needed my hands free for the fence, for the tree trunk that would help me climb. Behind me, the Romano house stood warm and massive, full of people who would lose their minds if they knew I slipped out alone through the service door in the middle of the night. Ahead, darkness stretched with a car I’d never seen waiting somewhere in it. I drew one long breath. Cold air cut into my lungs. Then I started climbing.

I quickly gripped the lowest branch tightly, trying to climb as fast and as possible and carefully at the same time, so that I wouldn't fall down, which might have happened, because I was scared and shivering all over, not only from the cold. It seemed like an eternity, but luckily I made it over to the branch leading to my window and then onto the windowsill. In that moment, right next to the wall, I heard the rustle of leaves, as if someone had flown very quickly to the right part of the forest, and it surprised me so much that my left leg slipped down the windowsill. Luckily, I grabbed hold of the wooden part of the window and managed to pull myself up, then slipped into my room as nimbly

She chose a large trunk, that hadn’t suffered too badly, to begin her staircase, and placed a side table on top. Then she put a couple of chairs on top of that. With those pieces stacked, she figured she could climb through the hole and hoist herself up and out. She took a deep breath, said a little prayer, and started her ascent. When she reached to put her hands through the hole, she was met with the unexpected: an invisible wall. She patted her palms against this wall to find that it completely covered the opening.

Learning. Reaching. Ethan moved. Fast. Precise. His hand found Mara’s arm in the dark and pulled her slightly behind him. “Up,” he said. No hesitation. No debate. “We climb. Now.” Noah didn’t argue. For once. “Yeah—yeah, climbing sounds great, I love climbing when something unknown is chasing us in total darkness—” “Move,” Ethan cut him off. The ladder groaned as Noah started first. Metal against metal. Sharp.

It moved like a man with no spine. The human body only has two legs and what she saw climbing the cage’s walls had eight. Amber couldn’t move. She watched as the Boneseeker Man climbed the cage’s walls, making his way toward her. The clicking had a guttural slimy sound, like an ape choking on its vomit. It was a dreadful noise, and with every passing second, the terrible slobbering clicking grew closer to Amber. She closed her eyes and prayed while feeling her urine running down between her legs. The sight of the predator caused Amber to urinate on herself.

My duty as a Luna compelled me to confront the unknown head-on, to face whatever awaited us on the desolate outskirts. The SUV came to a halt near the location Nixon had specified. We stepped out into the chilly night, the scent of damp earth and the distant howls of unseen creatures filling the air. The moon cast an ethereal glow on the landscape, revealing an abandoned building that stood like a solemn sentinel in the darkness. We approached cautiously, the crunch of gravel beneath their boots resonating in the quietude. The entrance to the building loomed ahead, a foreboding portal into the unknown. I sniffed, trying to find any scent of those bloodsuckers, but couldn’t find any.

‘I did say that you’ve been reading way too many horror books. But the only thing I care about right now is its black skillion and lean-to-roof. To get to my room, I’ll have to jump up to the lean-to-roof and fix myself on the part of the house that’s covered by the skillion roof, climb, pass my parent’s room without drawing attention, and slide into mine on the highest floor. Piece of cake, right? Carmine swallowed hard. Readying my hands, I shot out my claws and took a deep breath.
