Twenty-seventh Day

On a stormy dark night with a full moon outside a kid named John starts seeing these weird things going around the house. But he thinks it is just the wind and he tries to go to bed but then something knocks on his bedroom door when his parents are out for the night and out of sight.


I wrote this story as a home alone story but added a twist. I wanted to add history so that the reader would have a sense of what happened long ago. I put it on an island to increase the feeling of being alone. There was a tragedy added for interest. I tried to show that a place can have happy memories as well as sad. I think I followed the direction of the prompt with this one. What do you think?
