Apperances Can Be Deceiving
“Appearances can be Deceiving”

We all together as a family joyfully entered the new house that my parents had just bought in which I would finally have my own bedroom; so the first thing I did when we had arrived was ask which room was going to be my bedroom. The move was on a long weekend which made things much more complicated than expected. However, it was all worth it since in the end I got to pick the curtains and wall colors for my room.
Monday came along and with it came an arrival at a new school which was a little far from home.

I left and headed toward class in room 13. But on my way there I was thinking why they hadn’t given the Religion class a different room number instead of 13 which seem very ironic to me.
My first impression was that of an antique and forgotten prison. Along the hallways there where gigantic windows like those of a prison and to make matters worse you could hear the screams and noise that every single one of the students was making which sounded like screams of disparity and help to my ears. Upon entering the classroom I was surprised by what I saw, a young handsome gentlemen who claimed to be Mr. Machete
The day continued normaly. When I was leaving I saw that everybody was dressed in white clothes which made me go home a little bewildered. At bed time I remembered that they were all dressed in white and since the night was cold and the moon was full I imagined that they where ghosts.
But, my biggest surprise was getting to school the next day and seeing the tallest tree by the entrance weeping. Everyone said that around Halloween time that this tree reincarnates in Madame Lucia a

    After half an hour, we arrived at the graveyard. The graveyard was deserted and had hundreds of graves spaced out all over the field. The faint wind moaned through the trees and the grass danced. There was a high-pitched howl every so often. I feared that it might have been the dead spirits that came to complain about being disturbed. But I knew that ghosts weren’t real until…

    Once upon a time, in a world of its own, stood the prison-like building of Nichols Junior High. Unimposing to any untrained eye idling by on the streets passing by outside, the green and blue clad crowded halls harbored the mischief of troublesome youth running wild. Meanwhile, all others hid in the shadows waiting for the bells to sound and the leashes to be loosened in a mockery of freedom. The cacophony of shouts to gather allies, competitions for dominance, and trade in some good or another only to be smashed under the watchful eye of the wardens draped the entirety of the building. Only when the cells were filled to the brim did a frail sense of quiet try to fight the inevitable losing battle of madness until uproar in one of the cells shattered it once more.…

And with one solid step the whole cabin stepped into the hall. What began after the was an event so horrible, so indescribable I can't even speak of it.
