Dear Diary,<\/p>\n

Today I was taking a stroll through the forest to get my mind off things. I was just about to walk home but I looked up and saw a wolf by the river, it was covered in black fur and bright red eyes. I could feel my heart pounding against my chest. How can I describe the unreasoning fear that there was something staring directly at my soul. What happened next was a blur. I vividly remember running away from the monster that was chasing me for hours. Once I realised that I had fully left it behind, I reached for my phone that had fallen as I was running. So there I was in the middle of the woods with no source of surviving.<\/p>\n

Dear Diary,<\/p>\n

My name is Rose Doolan and I am 28 years old. I live with my best friend. In my spare time I like to hang out with my friends and robbing banks. I have just been to the desert and I\u2019m going to a bar.<\/p>\n

I have just witnessed a fight in the bar. At first I was just sitting with my friend and I heard shouting so I ran over to the two men fighting and one of them had blood running down his nose.<\/p>\n

—–<\/p>\n

My heart was beating rapidly as I was sprinting through the deep dark woods. The grass was overgrown and I could bearly see where I was going. I turned my phone torch on and I turned backwards to see what was behind me. I could see dark black figure holding a really long sword and a crow was standing on its shoulder. I turned back around and started running, but after five seconds I heard a loud scream. I turned back around to see what it was and I could see a adult laying down on the dirty, muddy ground where the black figure was. I closed my eyes to see if I was just imagining what happened, but I opened my eyes and I saw the sword hit the ground . . . .<\/p>\n

There was a little kid called Timmy Jones. It was his sixth birthday and he was very excited. Timmy wanted the new doll named Mr Chuckles all his friends at school had this new doll apart from him. As he went downstairs he saw a big box. He was desperate to see what was inside so he went closer to take a quick peak but before he could do that his Mum walked into the room with his birthday cake and a large bag full of presents. Timmy blew out his candles and cut a slice out with his Mum as he was opening his last present he looked back over at the box. His Mum walked over to the box . . .<\/p>\n

Dear Diary,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am Suzy Lafayttle. I am 18 years old and I live with my parents and an annoying younger sister. All my life, my parents have used me to rob banks for them. I have never known my parents as I was always out robbing banks for them. They wouldn\u2019t care if I got caught. My parents are horrible, selfish and they don\u2019t care about me (they only care about my sister). That\u2019s why I have come up with a plan to run away tonight. I can\u2019t handle living with them anymore, all they do is use me. How would you feel if your parents didn\u2019t care about you? Anyway I am getting ready to go now so until next time diary . . .<\/p>\n

One day, I was walking down the street and I came across an old, broken backpack. I thought to myself that I should take it. As I was walking, all of a sudden, a man was chopping a massive tree and breaking in a car with an axe . . .<\/p>\n

After that, a pirate appeared and started singing while eating a cactus. The crazy pirate started getting angry and was upset as it started raining. He got so angry he smashed up his glasses and threw them. They were nowhere to be seen . . .<\/p>\n

As soon as I could I got out of this situation. Out the corner of my eye, I saw a taking, floating cat. Out of nowhere, he already knew everything about me! My shoe size, my weight, my favourite colour and why everything weird and crazy is happening to me?!. . .<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once upon a time, there was a young girl wandering through a deep dark haunted wood. She\u2019s got long brown hair with hazle eyes. All she could hear was rain drops falling all around. She don\u2019t know how she got here but she\u2019s scared and worried. She walks and walks until she finds a box that is gold and stuck in a long black tree and near the tree were plants that looked like they were going to eat you. She tried and tried but couldn\u2019t reach it. So she wandered and came across a man, a very small man who looked more like a goblin, looking through a smashed mirror. He had a long white nose with elf ears with a bag. He looked like he was just waiting for him to strike a mysterious plan. He sees the girl and asked he if she was okay. She replied, \u201cNo Sir\u201d. \u201cOh Why?\u201d he said. I need a person tall enough to reach my box from a tree. \u201cOh I\u2019ll help\u201d he said. Okay she replied. They walked back to the long dark tree but even the little man couldn\u2019t reach. . .<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The four friends walked through the haunted house. They looked up on the internet that the owners daughter got bullied. She ended up killing herself, and legend had it that the girls spirit haunted a doll.<\/p>\n

They saw that doll in the corner of the room, \u201cWe should check whether it is haunted,\u201d whispered Jade.<\/p>\n

\u201cAgreed,\u201d said Lilly.<\/p>\n

\u201cNoooo\u201d whined Chloe.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s OK Chloe,\u201d whispered Tom.<\/p>\n

Jade put it on the stairs. \u201cOK everyone go to a room in the house then shout come find me!\u201d<\/p>\n

They did what Jade said.<\/p>\n

\u201cCOME FIND ME!\u201d they all shouted . . . There was a silence. Then a deafening scream was heard all through the house . . . It was in the room Lilly was in . . . followed by a scream from the room Jade was in . . .<\/p>\n

\u201cChloe we need to go!!\u201d shoted Tom. They ran until they could not.<\/p>\n

\u201cDid we make it?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNot Sure,\u201d whispered Tom.<\/p>\n

Then they saw the doll stood in front of them . . .<\/p>\n

Today I woke up at 6.30 in the morning and I went on my phone for half an hour to go on snapchat, Whatsapp and facebook. Then it was 7.00 then I got dressed. I did my hair as well. Then I went to my friend\u2019s house to knock for him to walk to school with. I got to school about 8.13am then I saw Taylor, Tilly, Chloe, Charlie J, and Kayleigh L and Kayleigh C. At half past two I go and pick my brother from school. Then me, my brother and my mum go to the town. At 4pm I go to dancing until 7pm. Then I go home to my Nan\u2019s house to have dinner then I go on my phone until 9.30pm. Then I go to bed then the next morning I wake up about 7.00am to get ready for dance. I dance from 10.30 until 3.30. Then I go home to play with my friends.<\/p>\n

I arrived in town for the first time. I thought there was fun fairs there, well that was what my Mum said anyway, I found a little shop with signs with \u201cSweet Shop come in for a great time\u201d. I went in and there was so much sugar, my Mum said sugar is bad but a little bit isn\u2019t bad . . . right? I was questioning myself for a long time but then I gave up so went outside. I saw a person in a red costume, but it was face to face with the local sheriff. I didn\u2019t understand at first but then I heard the sheriff saying \u201cyou won\u2019t take me alive this is my town\u201d. In a Texas like voice. I saw the red costume person had a sword. It was pointing the sword to the sheriff\u2019s throat signalling it by swirling the sword around.<\/p>\n

But then the sheriff ducked swiftly to the right and to the left. I wasn\u2019t surprised at what he was doing but even more surprising is that he was doing all this in a suit! The sheriff finally shot the red costume person and they all live happily ever after. Or so I thought . . .<\/p>\n

#Mushroom Squad<\/u><\/p>\n

Jeff is the leader of the #mushroom squad and Bob is the leader of the Bob Squad and a human. The mushroom tries to destroy Bob Squad because if he doesn\u2019t he can\u2019t be the next King. If he doesn\u2019t destroy Bob\u2019s Squad his head will get chopped off. Then Bob\u2019s Squad will become the king of both kingdoms, and if jeff wins he\u2019ll get to turn Bob\u2019s Squad into a three legged donkey.<\/p>\n

There was once an angry man who made eggmeal for his Army at lunch time. They were eating the eggmeal. Jeff Squad (the Jeff Army) and the Bob Team (the Bob Army) set the mushrooms on fire and he cut the mushrooms in half and fed them to the chickens. The human feeds the chickens the mushrooms and he poos out the mushrooms and the mushrooms are dead. The mushroom\u2019s organs dry up.<\/p>\n

Penny Wise<\/u><\/p>\n

Once there was creepy clown called Penny Wise. And he was the most terrifying clown that ever lived. No one knew what he was but all they knew was he was dangerous.<\/p>\n

People thought he came from a circus but they were wrong. He draws children into a sewer entrance and then he eats them! . . . .<\/p>\n

He knows children\u2019s fears so he turns into them to scare them.<\/p>\n

One day I was laying in my garden. I have a really concerned face but I had no idea what was happening. There was a map in the trees. But first I knocked on my (tiny) house. My Mum came out and I hear Ahahaha in the quietest voice.<\/p>\n

My Mum said \u201cWhy you so tall?\u201d<\/p>\n

I said, \u201cdon\u2019t worry I need to do something bye.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mum said, \u201cOkay bye\u201d.<\/p>\n

So I looked at the map. I saw another map. The map looks like a messy pirate map with lots of stains but it was not just a map it had information. Each picture on the map one was an egg and more for the information as the egg it said \u201cFind this egg it was purple and green please find it.\u201d . . .<\/p>\n

Once upon a time it was Halloween, scary and horrifying day. There was a little girl on top of her roof. The man who saw her said, \u201cGet down little girl.\u201d All of a sudden a skeleton came out of the chimney and held the little girls hand . . .<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

One normal day R.L.Stine was getting ready for bed. There was a lot of noise. He went outside to his front garden there was scaffolding to and from his house. At the top of his house there was a robot arm. R.L Stine wondered what was happening . . .<\/p>\n

My Character: Her name is Coraline. She\u2019s 10 year sold, She is a little shy but she has so many friends. She\u2019s really nosey, and she gets in trouble a lot. That\u2019s why she is really brave.\"\"<\/p>\n

Since Coraline moved into a different town with her family all she was thinking about was how many new places she could visit. When she and her family \u2018finally!\u2019 arrived Coraline immediately opened the car door and went to explore! Everything she could see was interesting. After exploring, Coraline decided that everything there was boring, so finally she got to explore the new house. Her Mum said, \u201cgo explore your room.\u201d She was so excited that she shot like an arrow upstairs. There weren\u2019t anything interesting going on in her room, but then she saw it! The little door. She opened it and it was magical there was animals talking to each other, the trees were not big like normal ones . . . but the trees were really small. She went inside it and that meant she\u2019s going to be in big trouble!<\/p>\n
