I don’t want to believe it, but I think my house is haunted! I’m not surprised, since we live next to [a cemetery] [a mad scientist who is experimenting on humans] [a ghost factory]. As soon as we moved in a year ago, I knew something [creepy] [disgusting] [annoying] would come from over there and [haunt] [entertain] [bother] us.
There are a few reasons I can tell my house is [under the spell of a poltergeist] [haunted] [turning into a loony bin for ghosts]. For one thing, my [kitchen] [living room] [basement] is totally [spooky] [scary] [smelly], especially [when it’s raining] [at night] [when I’m trying to practice my dance moves]! Just the other day, I was [eating] [shaving the dog] [doing my homework] in there when suddenly I heard [moaning] [whispers] [the ghost of Elvis]. Nobody else was around, so I was really scared. It sounded so real! So I pulled out my cell phone and called my best friend,_____.
I said, “________!”
My best friend,_____, got so freaked out that [he] [she] decided to come over and help me investigate. As soon as [he] [she] got there, we [ate some Brussels sprouts] [put on biohazard suits] [listened really hard for the sound again]. We must have been in there for an hour, but nothing happened.

I pressed the POWER button and popped a round orange candy into my mouth. “Want one? They’re really sour.” I raised the phone to Lexi.
She made a disgusted face and shoved my hand away. “You know sour candy makes me puke. One candy and I’ll puke all over your shoes.”
“Thanks for sharing that,” I said. I popped another one into my mouth. Then I tucked the phone into the pocket of my T-shirt.
It was a warm, sunny Saturday afternoon. We’d been back home for a week. I met Lexi after her tennis lesson at City Courts, and we were walking toward my house.
She wore white tennis shorts and a silky gray vest over a white T-shirt. Her hair was still damp from her tennis game.
A blue-and-red neon sign over a little store caught my attention. It was glowing brightly even in the strong sunshine. LITTLE SHOP OF HAMSTERS.
“Is that a new pet store?” I asked.
I didn’t wait for her answer. I tore across the street. Two teenagers on bikes swerved to miss me. They screamed some rude words and shook their fists at me.
I love pet stores. I eagerly peered through the glass door, but I couldn’t see anything inside. I pushed the door open and stepped into the shop. Lexi hurried in right behind me.

An enormous display case filled the center of the shop. It had glass walls on all four
