Halloween Night.
Halloween night me and my friends were getting ready to go trick or treating. It was getting dark so we headed off. We were coming to a huge house. It had a big long driveway and it was pitch black. There wasn’t a light to be seen. We went up to the door. We were about to knock when suddenly the door opened but there was no-one behind it. We thought someone was playing tricks on us so we went in. Suddenly the door closed. We tried to open it but it was locked. We got an awful fright. We couldn’t see where we were going but we could hear noises. I felt something tap my back but there was no-one there. We carried on trying to find a way out. Suddenly the front door opened. We all ran out. That night when we got home we told my mother the story. She said the same thing happened to her when she was a little girl. From then on we never went near that house again. 20 years later a man and woman moved into the house. One night a couple were walking past and they heard a scream. They were never to be seen again. Some say they are still in there trying to find their way out.

Fire Safety At Home
You shouldn’t smoke when you are in bed or tired as it is very dangerous. It is also very dangerous when you leave candles burning when no-one is in the room, it could cause a fire. You must remember to turn off all electrical things. Always put up the guard in front of the fire place. (If you don’t a spark could cause a fire). Don’t use fireworks, only experts are allowed to use them. You must have a fire alarm in your house and you should check about every 6 months to see if the batteries are working. If there is a fire and you have to get people out of the house you could close the door where the fire is coming out off and block the bottom with towels or blankets to stop the smoke from getting in. If there is a fire you should call 999 or 112, when they answer you ask for the fire service, then speak calmly and clearly so they can hear you. Give your address and phone number if you are calling on your mobile say which county you are in.
