THE FIRST TALE: VOICES AT NIGHT
There was once a normal kid named Sherman. Sherman was an ordinary boy that would do anything a boy would do, one night, he went to bed, expecting a normal night as everyone would. His parents went downstairs to their rooms, and Sherman went upstairs to his room. At 9:00 PM, as he was reading a book in his bed, he smelt a terrible smell, like rotten flesh. He reached for his cologne when he heard a low and cracky voice, "Don't get out of bed." It said. Sherman instantly hid under the covers and covered himself with stuffed animals, probably as anyone would do. "I can still see you." The voice echoed. "Who are you?!" Sherman asked in a scared voice, tears running down his cheeks. The voicedidn't reply. Sherman fell to sleep, but as he did, a creature from below licked its lips. The second night, Sherman hid under the covers again. "You can't hide." The voice told Sherman. "Stop stalking me! Who are you?!" Shouted Sherman. The voice replied "Something with intentions." "What are your intentions?!" Sherman yelled. "Finding food." The voice simply replied. Sherman was about to step out of bed and run downstairs to his parents when a loud thump shook the house. Sherman's parents downstairs just shook it off and thought it was their neighbors having a party. "Stepping out of bed may be the last thing you do." The voice told Sherman. Sherman quickly hid under the covers again. As nights passed, the voice haunted Sherman even more, and a foul odor smelt worse day by day. One night, everything changed. Sherman was in bed hiding under his covers, he did that often now, when he suddenly got an idea. "Do you hate light?" Sherman asked. "I'm not going to answer that." Replied the voice. Instantly, Sherman turned on his light. A siren-like shriek burst from underneath the bed as blood poured out from under. Sherman didn't look under there, but he assumed the creature was well dead. Sherman’s dad ran upstairs to check on Sherman, even a father like him heard the shriek! When Sherman’s dad ran into Sherman’s room, all the blood and guts had suddenly disappeared. “What the hell was all that screaming? It did not sound like a human at all!” Yelled Sherman’s dad. Sherman pointed under the bed and told his dad the story of what happened, the thud, the voice, the smell. When Sherman’s dad looked under the bed, his skin turned pale, and he froze stiff. He stayed like that, in that position, without blinking, for an entire month. THE SECOND TALE: SHED ALL OVER
There was a kid named Sam. Sam was not an average kid. He was a lazy, chubby 13 year old that loved to watch TV in his spare time. On one particular night, his parents were doing "last minute shopping" leaving Sam alone in his house. He was watching a movie when he heard a loud thump in the kitchen, so he walked into there and found a skillet on the floor, with hair all over it. Sam wasn't scared one bit, he just thought it was a giant rat or something. That idiot walked back into the living room and turned on another movie. He was about 15 minutes in when he heard another thump, and it came from down the hallway. So Sam, now intrigued, got up and walked into the hallway, which was covered from the ceiling, wall, and floor with hair and fur. Sam heard another thump, but it was from his room this time, so he opened the door and found that his bed was flipped upside down, all of his stuff was broken, and there were claw marks on the walls. Sam was scared now, so he turned on the light and grabbed his father's walking stick (for protection). He looked around his room but found no answer to whatever may have caused this. So he went back out and found that there was drool all over the hallway. So Sam walked through, tried to avoid all that disgusting drool, and held the stick above his head, ready to swing it in-case he wasn't alone in his house. Then, the lights flickered, and turned off. Sam felt a tug on his leg, then he felt humanoid hands pull on him, and he was pulled into the back of the hallway. He threw the stick behind himself, which caused screaming and pain to whatever pulled him. Sam ran into the kitchen, when suddenly he heard a window break, and instantly his parents came home. The front door slammed shut.
"Sam?" his mother called from the entryway.
Sam stood frozen in the middle of the hallway, gripping the counter so hard his knuckles turned white. His heart pounded in his chest. "Sam, where are you?" his father asked.
Sam noticed something strange. His father never dragged his feet when he walked. Tonight, every step scraped against the floor. Sam cautiously peeked around the corner. His parents stood at the end of the hallway. For a moment, relief washed over him. Then he noticed the fur. Tiny strands of dark hair clung to his mother's sweater. More was tangled in his father's sleeves. His father's pant leg was torn, and there was a fresh red mark on his shin.
Exactly where Sam had thrown the walking stick.
His stomach dropped. "Mom?" he whispered. His father looked down the hallway toward Sam's room.
"What happened here?" he asked.
The question sounded genuine. But neither parent seemed surprised by the claw marks. Neither asked about the fur. Neither asked about the drool smeared across the walls. And the story ends there, because there is not enough information to tell us what happened next. THE THIRD TALE: SOMETHING IN THE SOD
In 1860, during the time of settlers moving to American lands and building houses out of sod and other things, there was a man and his wife, they had built their sod house a year ago, and they were living a happy life. There was a village close to here, and the doctor's hut was less than a mile away. One night, the walls started moving and shaking—like jello—kind of. The two were in a deep sleep. Then something, humanoid, with pale white skin, leapt from the walls. It stalked the couple before selecting the one it should "use". The other day, the man's wife was acting very strange, her eyes were much longer, and when she talked, her mouth would stretch about half a meter. "I'm craving sugar." She said to her husband. "I thought you were allergic to sugar." Replied the man. "Perhaps I'd want to see if you'd notice." Replied the wife. The man gave his wife some sugar. "It's the last we have, I'll need to go down to the village today and get some more." Said the man. "Oh—go you little flea! Run off my darling!" Replied the wife. The man was puzzled, he knew his wife did not like talking about fleas, it gave her goosebumps, and she did not like to say 'darling' either, because it reminded her of the time she accidentally ran over a deer with her wagon. "How long have we been married?" Asked the man. "Long enough." Replied the wife. "What's our horse's name?" Asked the man. "The brown or black one?" Asked the wife. "We have one, and it is white." Replied the man. Later, that day, the man promised his wife he'd go down to get more sugar, but he actually went to the doctor's hut to get some help, and see what the heck was happening with his wife. "Your 'wife' is not your wife." Said the doctor. "What do you mean?" Asked the man. "From what I know," Said the doctor with a sigh, "Is that the thing you've been hanging out with all day is not your wife, it is a robber of the skin, a creature, and tonight, it will eat you in your sleep." The man's eyes widened. "How do I stop this thing??" He yelled. The doctor gave the man a bottle full of purple liquid. "Pretend to be asleep, when the skinwalker widens its mouth to eat you, throw the bottle into its mouth as quickly as you can!" The doctor told the man. "My loved ones were plundered by one long ago." The man obeyed. When he got home, he told his 'wife' or what he knew as a "Skinwalker" that they had run out of sugar at the market. "I'll ask the doctor" Replied the 'wife' in anger. She smiled without showing her teeth. The moment the door shut, the sound of footsteps disappeared. Instead, came The rapid scraping of hands and feet across the dirt. The man begged himself not to look outside the window. Since the doctor knew the wife was a skinwalker, only one walked out alive. About two hours later, the man heard knocking on his door, when he opened it, he saw the doctor. "I got the situation all taken care of, you have no more skinwalkers." Said the doctor. Almost instantly, the doctor's mouth stretched open, and his eyes turned hollow, the man knew this was not the doctor, but the skinwalker. The man threw the bottle into the skinwalker's mouth. "You shouldn't have done that" The skinwalker said repeatedly as it was melting into purple goo and its face warped into a cucumber-like shape. Eventually, there was no more skinwalker, only purple goo on the ground. The man was left terrified for the rest of his life. THE FOURTH TALE: THE LIVING MASK
There were two friends walking home from school one night, one was Amiir, and the other was Gordon. As they were walking down the street, Gordon asked Amiir something; "You wanna come over to my house for a sleepover?" But when Amiir turned around, no one was there. This terrified Amiir, but he continued walking home. Then he noticed a strange man ahead of him, with a creepy mask on. "Why are you stalking me?" Asked Amiir. The man stayed silent, but then slowly started walking towards Amiir with his hands at his sides. Amiir started screaming, and screaming until the man said "Shut up, bro." and took off his mask. It was Gordon! Amiir yelled at Gordon for terrifying him like that, then Gordon threw the mask on the ground and walked home. "Stupid mask..." Said Amiir as he walked into his garage. A few moments later, something rose from the ground, something flat, something rubber, something smiling.
Later, when Amiir was watching TV in his garage, and his dad was fast asleep on the couch, Amiir saw a smiling face in the garage window, that seemed to be staring at him. Amiir rubbed his eyes and looked again, but there was no face, so Amiir thought it was just his imagination.
Amiir is pretty dumb, just like Sam from a few stories earlier, so Amiir went to sleep after watching "Swapped". When Amiir woke up, it was still midnight, but he was on the roof! Amiir was very scared. "How the hell did I get up here?!" He yelled. Something flew above his head. "Must've been a bat." He said to himself. But the thing flew around him in circles. "Okay, this is kind of freaking me out." So he hit the thing with his hand and the perfect time, and it stopped flying, and it fell down the roof. "That..." Amiir paused for a moment, "felt like rubber!" He carefully climbed to the other side of the roof and looked on the ground, and on the ground, there was a smiling rubber mask. "That's the mask my friend scared me with." He whispered. "Bah, must've put a drone in it!" He said to brush his fear off himself. "But... Why am I on the roof?" "Because I put you there." Said a low and cracky voice. "Who said that?!" Shouted Amiir. "I am known by many names, маска, 面具, قناع, but, that's not important. You called me stupid." Replied the voice. "I wouldn't call some old man stupid, you've got the wrong person." Said Amiir. "Look at the ground again." Replied the low, cracky voice. Amiir crawled to the other side of the roof, looked at the ground, and there was a smiling rubber mask, but with eyeballs and teeth this time. It was staring directly at Amiir. Amiir's jaw dropped, and he rubbed his eyes. When he looked again, the mask was gone. Amiir thought he was hallucinating, since it was very late, then he heard a window crack, a gun fire, and the sound of a beer shattering on the ground. Amiir got down from the roof, and walked into the garage, where he found his dad wearing the mask. "Dad, that was not a funny prank." Said Amiir. "It was not a prank." Said his father, in the same, low, cracky voice. Amiir realized that the figure wasn't his dad, but the mask controlling him. "Get off my father, now!" Shouted Amiir. The mask opened its mouth and smiled, but without showing its teeth, then it got off the father and flew fastly towards Amirr, which made him flinch. When he opened his eyes, the mask was gone. This night terrified him, and he never went to sleep the same again. THE FIFTH AND LAST TALE: CARBY CABIN
Way back in the 1930s, there was a bearded american logger named Motaaz Carby. Motaaz didn't like the public, so he isolated himself and lived in the woods, he built a large log house. He didn't live alone, his brother, Wilson, lived there too. They lived there for years. One day, Motaaz decided to go fetch some maple syrup, and Wilson agreed to stay and take care of the house. So Motaaz went to get some maple syrup, and when he returned to the house, he found that his brother was laying dead on the floor with two long fang marks in his neck. Motaaz couldn't tell what it was, since everything looked nice and neat. Then he realized he built an attic while making the house, and he had never checked on it since. So he went up there, and the door was open, which was weird. It had been shut for years. Motaaz went in, inspected the room, then the door shut. And he would meet the same fate his brother had. When police came to inspect the house, they found the corpses were right next to the fireplace, the officers just blamed that Motaaz and Wilson were too lazy to keep the door shut, so a pack of wolves came in and bite them, but that was not true at all, and no one knew how they disappeared. Their house was still so nice, that the government turned it into a cabin people could rent for the night. Strange things happened in the cabin, and everyone who went in there would report strange things, and three people also went missing after going in. Police just rumoured that the people went to look for a better cabin. One time, a ranger, a farmer, and a hunter, all cousins, rented the cabin for the night, and when the ranger went into the attic, he didn't come out. The hunter, annoyed, opened the door, and collapsed, he was dead. The farmer reported this to the police, and they saw nothing wrong with the body, so they suspected a broken heart, like a divorce or something. Another time, a man and his dog rented the cabin, and the attic door was still wide open, the dog, excited to explore the place, looked in the attic, and jumped out the window. The man reported this to the authorities, but they ruled it as an "anti-dog spray" that Motaaz and Wilson sprayed years before dying. So now the cabin was a pet-free cabin. Then there was a crook, who wanted to rob the cabin of its antiques to sell and get money. So he went into the cabin, put lots of things in a trash bag, and when he went into the attic, something happened. The next day, everything was back where it was, and there was no proof a robber was ever there—besides the ski-mask by the fireplace. Years went by, and people were still reporting things, so a construction team bought the place and tore it down, while they were tearing it down, something kept from the attic, attacked four workers, and leapt into the forest.

THE FIRST TALE: THE NIGHT WATCHER
Back in the 1970s, There were 7 lumberjacks, Peter, Gary, Mike, Jason, Brian, Chad, and Mark. They owned a small business where they would sell wood, and they suspected that this night would be another night where they collected wood, but it didn't turn out that way. They prepared their tent, where they would sleep for the night, and they started chopping down a tree. "Should this one be another 2 by 3?" Asked Gary. "I'm thinking a 5 by 5." Replied Brian. While Gary and Brian were talking about wood, the others were at the campfire, making smores. "Have you ever heard about Carby Cabin?" Jason said to the team. "I've heard lots of scary tales there." Said Chad. "Guys, really? In the dark?" Replied Mike. Right after Mike said that, a beam of light, from about 50 feet above, shined bright on them, as bright as the sun on a hot day, "Well, what the hell is that?" Asked Peter. "I think it's the light that Mike wanted, you better go over there and shut it off." Said Jason. "I don't think a lighthouse is supposed to be here, in the forest." Said Mike. "SHUT IT OFF!" Yelled Jason. The other members of the team stared at Mike. "Fine, but only because of peer pressure." Said Mike as he walked towards the area where the beam was coming from. Soon enough, after about 5 minutes, the beam shut off, and the Forest was dark again, besides the campfire. By this time, Gary and Brian stopped arguing about wood and sat at the campfire with the others. About 30 minutes later, they all suspected that something was fishy. "What's taking Mike so long?" Yelled Jason. "I don't know, none of us do, go check." Replied Peter. "But..." Jason paused for a little bit before continuing. "It's very unsettling." "It was the same to Mike, now, go on, get!" Said Chad. "The 5 of us will wait here." Replied Mark. Jason walked off to where the beam was located, but another 30 minutes went by, and he did not return. "These guys are playing tricks! I'm tired, so I'm going into the tent." Said Peter in a rude tone. "Same here!" Yelled Mark forcefully. Brian and Gary followed Peter and Mark into the tent, while Chad stayed outside and put out the campfire. "I love nature, I love it so much." Chad said to himself. Then, a beam of light shined hard on Chad, and the others peeked out of the tent. "What the hell? Not again!" Yelled Brian. Chad covered his eyes halfway with his right hand and stared at the beam, not saying a word. Suddenly, the mysterious beam revealed itself, a dark, humanoid body with three fingers, and the head of a desktop lamp. "CHAD, GET IN HERE!" Yelled the others in the tent. Chad stayed in his place while the creature was slowly lifting its feet and walking towards him. By the time the creature was close, Chad tried making a run for it, but it was too late, the team watched from the tent as the creature grabbed Chad. The team closed their eyes for a matter of 5 seconds, and as they did, they heard a crunching, water dripping, and a creaking sound. When the team opened their eyes, Chad was gone, and the creature extended a long, electronic neck and it creaked as it slowly turned its head towards the tent. "Get down." Whispered Mark. The four remaining members of the team go down as the light beam shined down on the tent, then, after a minute or so, Brian started peeing himself, and I was leaking all over the tent. "Ew, what the hell Brian?!" Yelled Gary as he got up. "You shouldn't have done that." Peter whispered. Gary turned his head towards the window in the tent, and the creature had its beam staring right at him. The creature walked towards the tent, broke through the window, not noticing the others, and grabbed Gary. "He's cooked." Whispered Brian. "I'm not letting this happen." Said Mark as he loaded a shotgun and aimed it towards the creature, but it grabbed him too, and when Brian peeked, the creature grabbed him by the head and pulled him out the window, leaving only Peter, and when the beam shut off, and the light disappeared, Peter ran out of the forest, started his truck, and drove away. THE SECOND TALE: LUX THE CREEP
There were 3 brothers, Ron, Harvey, and Norville. They all slept in the same bunk bed, on the same bunk. The top bunk was left stranded, and used as a storage space—not that it's important to the story—just for you to imagine what their room might look like. Norville, the oldest, really loved scary stories, he was a fanatic! (Yes, a 'fanatic'.) "On Reddit, there's a kid named Sherman who reported a monster under his bed!" Norville said. "Dude, shut up! We have no time for your nightmares!" Yelled Ron. Norville continued."Or, there's another kid named Sam, whose house was—" "I SAID SHUT UP!" Yelled Ron. "Fine." Replied Norville. They were all on their bottombunk, Harvey ignored the two and read on his kindle. Then, the three heard grotesque noises, like a snake slithering combined with explosions and other things, even as the one writing this down, not even I can explain the noise. "What is it now? Norville?" Asked Ron. "You try'na make the noise that the skinwalker made from that 166 year old journal we found in the attic?" Norville's face went plank, and gave Ron a soulless stare. "That's not me." He said. "Well, then what is it? The Living Mask? The Roof Blowover? The Night Watcher? Timmy Horrors? The Corn Maze Horror? Carby Cabin? Spit it out!" Replied Ron in a rude tone. "I know I read a lot of spooky stories from Youtube and Reddit, but I swear on my heart, those sounds are not from me!" Cried Norville. "Those tales are true." Said a high pitched cracky voice from under the bed. Ron stopped talking, and his eyes widened with horror. Harvey also looked away from his kindle, and pointed towards what was under the bed. Right before anyone had time to talk, a hand grabbed the edge of the bed, its fingers moved in all directions uncontrollably, and some twisted like roots and vines. Ron screamed, but Norville covered Ron's mouth before he could make too much noise. Two hands grabbed the edge of the bed, before slowly revealing a short man with pale-gray skin, two, soulless black eyes, and a very wide smile. "Who are you and what do you want?" Asked Harvey very quickly. "Lux..." The short man said slowly. Harvey threw his kindle at Lux, trying to act tough, but with a snap of Lux's fingers, a second man appeared. This other man was shorter than Lux, he had the same smile, same eyes, but had a very long mustache, that stretched off of his body, and he seemed to have no legs, just 2 round shoes. The second man grabbed the kindle before it hit Lux, and then he ate it. "Want to go for a spin?" Asked Lux, drifting his head to the side. "No." The three children replied. "Too..." Said the second man. "Bad..." Lux finished. The room disappeared, leaving only a black void, with thousands of tiny eyes watching them. Lux span the bed around and around and around, as the tiny eyes sang "Opposite, opposite, opposite your life will go!" Each child screamed as the bed spun around and around and around. "I HATE YOU!" Screamed Harvey. Lux snapped his fingers, and Harvey slowly shrunk, his skin grew pale, his pupils disappeared. "HARVEY!!" Screamed Norville—who was also transforming. Ron closed his eyes, and when he opened them, he saw that both of his brothers had transformed into creatures similar to Lux. "Norville, Harvey?" Asked Ron as he looked towards both of his brethren. They just smiled, and reached toward Ron. "Nee, nee nee, nee nee nee." The thousands of eyes sang. Suddenly, everything spun again, and Ron closed his eyes, and when he opened them, he was back in his room, where he started, but he was the only one in bed.
THE THIRD TALE: THE ROOF BLOWOVER
The year was 2010, and there was once an average suburban neighborhood. Filled with lots of average folk. One day, a man's roof went completely missing, it was taken clean off of his house. No one knew how this happened. It was the talk of the town. Then, a few nights later, another roof went missing. "Why the hell are roofs going missing?!" Shouted a man. Even the police went to investigate, they guarded the houses of the neighborhood at night, but they went missing on the first night. Lots of the townsfolk were terrified, and a man even had people pay to live in his underground bunker to prepare for an 'apocalypse'. Detective Earl Ores, The protagonist of this story, decided to come in and crack the case. "Whoever or whatever is taking these roofs has to have thin limbs to cleanly and carefully pull somebody's roof clean off." He stated. As the nights passed, more roofs were snatched, and Detective Earl Ores was closer to what this monster might be. One night, a SWAT team marched into the forest, after Earl Ores stated that almost all monsters live in the woods. The SWAT team found lots of roofs scattered deep within the forest, each roof was at least within 500 feet of one another, they took pictures—and then vanished, leaving only a camera in the middle of nowhere. After the SWAT team disappeared, lots of people left the neighborhood.Only 80 people stayed. A few nights later, a man named Eugene was enjoying some late night coffee while working on his computer, when he heard cracks coming from his roof. "Santa, Christmas is months away, get out of here!" Shouted Eugene. Then his roof was snatched clean off in a matter of seconds—when Eugene looked up, he saw the monster, and it roared at him so loud that it felt like a huge gust of wind. When Eugene reported this to the police, he described the monster as having lots of slim and skinny legs, like a spider, and all of these limbs were connected to a huge ball-like head, which had hundreds of eyes, and 3 tusks, and a giant mouth with countless teeth. Detective Earl Ores ordered thateveryone must evacuate the neighborhood, and leave it behind, and everyone obeyed, leaving an abandoned neighborhood with no roofs. People still explore the neighborhood and disappear to this day.


THE FOURTH TALE: TIMMY HORRORS
There was once a kid named Timmy, he was 8 years old, he wore a propeller hat, he liked to draw, all that stuff. He had lots of friends, and he had play-dates all of the time, but there was one play-date that no one would ever forget. While Timmy was in class, he asked his best friends if they wanted to have a play-date. He had three best friends, Ricky, Keith, and Milo. "Is it okay if I invite my older brother, Ralph?" Asked Milo. "Yes, more people to experience the fun!" Said Timmy joyfully. When Ricky, Keith, Milo, and Ralph arrived at Timmy's house, he was already waiting at the door. "Are you ready for the ultimate play-date?" Asked Timmy. "Yes!" Said Ricky,
Keith, and Milo. "I guess so." Said Ralph, with his hands in his pockets. "Moron's trying to act tough." Whispered Timmy. When he went inside, Timmy asked "What do you guys wanna do?" "A Nerf gun war!" Said Keith excitedly. "Okay, team! Follow me, and we'll get our NERF Guns!" Replied Timmy. He led the others to a chest full of NERF guns, and they all picked theirs out, and then they went into the backyard and found different hiding spots before starting the NERF gun war. Ricky shot Timmy first, and Timmy lost his charm. "Did you just shoot the leader of this play-date?" Asked Timmy with his eyes stretched. "Yes, that's the point of a NERF gun war, they're just toy guns." Replied Ricky. Everyone watched as Timmy transformed into a slender-like monster, he had a long face, a stretched jaw, hollow eye sockets, long arms, fingers, and legs. He was about 8 feet tall! "RUN!" Shouted Ralph. Everyone started to run from Timmy, but Ricky was far behind, and was the first one to be caught by Timmy. No one knew what Timmy did to Ricky, but they could hear screams that echoed across the yard. The remaining three, Keith, Milo, and Ralph, went inside and locked the door. "What do we do, Ralph?" Asked Keith. "I don't know how to handle this!" Said Ralph quietly, not trying to alert Timmy. "You're the oldest." Said Milo. "Should we go to the basement, stay here, or go upstairs?" Asked Keith. "The basement is where The worst things happen, let's go upstairs." Replied Ralph. As the three went upstairs, Milo looked out the window, and saw that Timmy was walking inside. "Guys, he's coming inside!" Said Milo, he was sweating, panting, and almost out of breath. "Where do we hide?" Asked Keith. "In the attic!" Replied Ralph. "I don't like the attic, it's scary." Said Keith. "Then hide somewhere else." Said Milo. "I've got it! I'll hide in a pile of laundry in the basement!" Replied Keith. "Make it quick, I think he'll burst down the door any minute now!" Replied Ralph. Keith went downstairs as Milo and Ralph opened the attic and locked it. As soon as Keith hid in the basket of laundry, Timmy kicked down the door. "I didn't know we were playing hide and seek." He said creepily. "We're over here! You idiot!" A voice came from the living room. Timmy's bones cracked as he crawled on all-fours like a centipede into the living room, only to discover that the voice was just a show on the TV. Timmy sighed, and sniffed, then he tracked a scent from downstairs. Milo and Ralph heard the sounds of scraping and creeking as Timmy crawled downstairs. As Timmy was downstairs, he bit the heads off of some mice, and then some Barbie dolls. Then he noticed the laundry basket. "I've got to do my chores." He said as he poured the laundry into the washing machine, pretending to not notice that Keith was in there. Then he started the washing machine, and laughed wickedly. Then he crawled upstairs, and into the room that the attic was above. "Ralph, call 911." Whispered Milo. "Not while he's right below us, he'll hear the phone!" Ralph whispered back. Timmy crawled around, breaking and ripping apart the furniture. Then the washing machine beeped, a beep that it was done with the laundry, which made Timmy go back downstairs. "Oh no, Keith." Said Milo. When Timmy went downstairs, Ralph and Milo jumped out the window, and ran away. Meanwhile, Timmy turned Ricky and Keith into toys with his magic, and those were only 2 of the 100s of former victims. Ricky and Keith aren't dead, their toys.
THE FIFTH TALE: WHAT LIES WHERE THERE IS IN THE CORN MAZE?
There was once a corn maze, right next to an old farm, this was a very large corn maze. The owner of the farm would have visitors sign a contract that read "If you go missing or vanish in this corn maze, you, your friends, and your family have no reason to sue us. Signed _____" Only people who agreed to sign the contract were allowed to go into the corn maze. The corn maze was made up of grass, that measured 10 feet tall! On October 10th, three teens decided to go in. They were Bryson, Beau, and Beckett. They signed the contract, and went into the corn maze. It was still 11:00 in the morning. "Why do you think they had that contract?" Asked Beau. "Probably just to scare us." Replied Bryson. "Let's just get out of here, I can't see over this tall grass." Said Beckett. As the three reached a dead end, there was a statue of a clown pointing at them with a smiley face, and there was a sign that said "Haha! Your first dead end!" Okay, I've had enough, I'm going back." Said Bryson. "No, don't go back, this is literally a children's maze, come on!" Replied Beckett. "Fine, but only because you said it was a children's maze!" Said Bryson. As they progressed into the maze, they reached another dead end. Another statue of a clown was there holding a sign that read "The maze only gets more violent as you reach more dead ends." "Bruh, these clowns are very annoying." Said Beckett.
As they got further and further into the corn maze, they reached more dead ends. It was 7 at night, and it was pretty dark out. "I am starving!" Said Bryson. "The time is 7:02!" Shouted Beau as he looked at his phone. "We must be very close, let's get this over with and reach the ending!" Cried Beckett. Then, they heard moving from the tall grass right behind them. "It must be some more people who decided to come into the maze." Said Beau. A humanoid creature came out of the grass, it was human size, but it had a red glowing head, and long fangs sprouting from the bottom of its mouth. "Is this some sort of costume?" Asked Bryson as he walked towards the creature and pulled on its fangs. That only angered themonster, and it mauled Bryson. "RUN!" Shouted Beau. Beckett kicked the monster to try to get it off of Bryson, but it was too late, and then the monster started chasing Beau and Beckett. "HOW DO WE GET THIS THING OFF OUR TRACK?!" Screamed Beckett. The monster pounced on Beckett and started beating him. Beau stood and watched in horror as his friend was being mauled. Then he decided to run away into a dead end before the creature saw him. Beau entered his phone's password and tried to call his parents before noticing that a clown was right behind him. The clown took Beau's phone and crushed it with his bare hands before whispering "You signed the contract." Beau turned around and ran out of the dead end, only to notice that the creature from earlier had caught up to him. It was about to kill Beau when a mutated carnivorous giraffe with pale eyes picked up the creature with its jaw and swallowed it whole. Beau screamed, alerting the giraffe. The giraffe chased Beau as Beau ran through the corn maze, avoiding dead-ends. Eventually, Beau ran into the grass, and the giraffe couldn't find him. As Beau walked through the tall grass, he found a sign that read "Congratulations, you have found the secret exit." When Beau walked through the secret exit, and out of the corn maze, he was left traumatized for the rest of his life.


THE SIXTH TALE: THE WHISTLING KAYAKER
The year was 2000, and there was a 10 year old boy named Ezra, he had a dog—named Rufus. Ezra had 3 siblings, and his parents were divorced, they both took 2 children with them. So, the sibling that Ezra lived with was 2 years older than him, and he hid out in his room all of the time—so he isn't really important to our story. Every night, Ezra and his mom would walk Rufus around the block, and over a small bridge made of bricks. This particular night, when they were walking above the small bridge, they heard whistling from the creek. Ezra and his Mom looked over the bridge, and saw a hooded whistling kayaker. "Mom, that kind of freaked me out." Said Ezra. "He's just a kayaker, son." Replied Ezra's mom. Ezra, his mom, and Rufus continued their walk, but the whistling only grew louder the farther they walked. The other night, Ezra, his Mom, and the dog Rufus were on their nightly walk again, and the kayaker was there on the creek, whistling. "Hey, were you following us last night? the farther we got from the bridge, the louder the whistling got, and it kind of freaked my son out." Said the Mom loudly over the bridge. The Kayaker gave them a thumbs down, and kayaked away from the creek, and out of view, but as he kayaked farther away, the whistling only grew louder, as if he was close to them, when he wasn't.Nights passed, and the kayaker seemed to never leave the creek. "Hey, I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot a little bit ago, would you like to come with us for dinner?" Asked Ezra's Mom. The kayaker waved his finger at Ezra and his Mom, before kayaking down the creek, and just like the nights before, the whistling only grew louder from there. Years passed, and eventually, Rufus passed away. Ezra, his Mom, and his brother, moved to a different state, for a well-paying job. As Ezra and his Mom were on their nightly walk, they crossed a stream, and the whistling kayaker was there. So Ezra's Mom called the cops, and when they arrived, the kayaker was nowhere to be seen. As the years passed, Ezra turned 19, and applied for a college, that was in Flordia, when he got there, there was a creek surrounding it, and the whistling kayaker was there. 4 years later, Ezra had graduated college, and he and his girlfriend were celebrating the fourth of July at a lake, when they both heard whistling. Ezra noticed that the whistling kayaker was kayaking towards them. "Who are you?" Shouted Ezra. His girlfriend already knew all about the whistling kayaker, because Ezra had told her a year prior. When the whistling kayaker was close, a firework burst, which caused the whistling kayaker to fall off his kayak, and it turned upside down and floated towards Ezra and his girlfriend.
