Karen's Ghost
by Ann M. Martin

Karen thinks there's a ghost in her house!

I sat up and looked out my window. Morbidda Destiny's broomstick was leaning next to her front door. I could see it by the porch light. I guessed she wasn't going to go out haunting that night.

I lay down again. I listened.

CREEEEEAK. What was that? Was it Ben Brewer?

I felt gigundo scared. Ben Brewer is the ghost in my house. I am not sure if he ever drifts below the third floor. What if he does? What if he was in my room right then...watching me?

"Go away, Ben Brewer," I whispered. "You can't scare me."

CREEEEAK.

"Honest," I said. "You can't scare me." But my voice was shaking.
