Your opinion please.?
Barry and Josh had decided to investigate an old spooky looking house. Walking over to the window Josh carefully opened it wide, and then climbed in. Barry ped the bags through, and then climbed in himself. Nervousness was now upon them, and Josh fumbled a long time with his torch before he could switch it on. Walking on tiptoe, they went first into the kitchen. There were bare walls, broken cupboards, a broken table and four chairs. Leaving Josh in the kitchen, Barry went towards the front room. The front room door was standing ajar, and as Barry pushed it open wide he uttered a piercing scream, and then fainted. Facing him, directly in his way between the doorposts, stood the figure of a tramp. He stood staring at Barry with an evil look upon his face. He had heard them searching the kitchen and thought that he would play the part of an evil ghost. Barry sat up looked all about him and saw nothing. The ghost had gone. Then a thought had struck him; where’s Josh? He got to his feet and walked over to the kitchen door. With shaky hands, he slowly opened it. He waved his torch beam inside the kitchen. He expected to see the evil figure standing there. His torch beam went from table and chairs, wall to wall, and then it stopped on a figure looking inside a small double cabinet. On hearing the scream and the approach of footsteps, it was like trying to fit a square peg into a circle. Josh was desperately trying to get inside and close the cabinet doors to hide from who or what ever it was. Unknowing to Barry the tramp had followed him into the kitchen and was standing right behind him. Barry knelt down and tapped Josh on the back and, said” what are you doing? Josh said in a muffled voice” Who or what ever you are! I am a black belt in karate. Now go away. He remembered when you do the karate chops and kicks you also do animal noises? With his head and shoulders still inside the cabinet, he began his silly animal noises. Before Barry could answer Josh, The tramp tapped Barry on the shoulder and asked” do you have a light mate? Barry stuck his hand in his pocket for his lighter, and then thought about it. Hmm, if that is Josh trying to get in the cabinet, then who or what is it asking for a light. His imagination ran wild. Who or what was it that was behind him? Was it the werewolf, a ghost, or was it Dracula. Curiosity was too much. He had to find out. He turned to face who ever it was. The kitchen was empty. The tramp had already walked off into another part of the house to hide. Josh came out of the cabinet and began to explore the house again, with Barry close behind. Shadows danced on the walls and lurked in the corners as they proceeded. At the end of the page, they found a staircase. They had not gone up more than a dozen steps when they both simultaneously stopped to listen. From behind them came the sound of doors quietly closing. It was beyond all question; they heard the booming noise that accompanies the shutting of heavy doors, followed by the sharp catching of the latch. Josh whispered” We must go back and see who or what it is? Barry answered," you can go and get stuffed, man." I have seen it already!
