Frank Lightfoot's Short Story: The Haunted House
Date- 15th of April-
Today has gone so horribly, I believe it couldn’t have been more miserable. We had been up at the police station, around 11pm, after Frank had robbed a store. The next night we planned to see our “much loved” Grandma. The officers told me that Frank was armed with a gun. Although they weren’t going to put him in jail, they let him off with a strong warning, especially about the revolver.
In the end we decided to just talk about it with Frank in the morning. We were all weary anyway so we just let it pass. I hope Frank feels way better when he wakes up.

Date- 17th of April
It has been two days since the morning of Frank’s disappearance, the morning after he robbed the store. We are all worried, even Sean is concerned. We have called almost everyone that could even have a hint of where he could be. None of his mates know where he could be. I’m just glad when we called all the hospitals around the area, the name Frank Lightfoot didn’t have any sort of meaning to them.

Even though it was almost empty already, from the robbery, there seems to be nothing left at all while Frank is gone. I sure hope he’s fine.
Date- 19th of April
Frank has come back! Jack went on a late night search, and he found him. Everyone in the end had tears in their eyes. We couldn’t even go to grandma’s house this weekend we were so worried. I have no clue on how Jack found him, or how he convinced him to come back home in the end, but I’m so happy to know he’s safe.
It was decided that we would call everyone that morning and tell them the good news. It was too late to call them anyway. I can’t wait to tell them the good news.

    After watching the movie Catch Me If You Can, it was inevitable to me that the most important line in the movie was “I Am Frank William Abagnale Jr.” Frank Jr. was the main character and so it was important to know who he was throughout the whole movie.
