About this ebook
The night started out just great. I’d gone to a scary movie with some friends, and Mary Lou Pendergrass had cuddled up to me all night long.
Then I started walking home through the field. That’s when my luck changed. Suddenly I was being followed, but not by anything human. Would I ever make it home safely?
Read this short, but creepy tale to find out.

About the Author
THE HAUNTED HAYSTACK
Last night I went out with some friends from a neighboring farm. We went into town and had dinner. Then we went to a movie.
It was great because it was a scary movie. I was sitting next to Mary Lou Pendergrass and every time she got scared, she huddled real close to me. By the end of the movie I had my arm around her shoulders and was holding her close.
After the movie we went to the soda shop and got chocolate malts. Mary Lou and I shared one.
