It was a dark cold evening and I saw a shadowy figure ahead. I was frightened. As I moved closer inch by inch, I heard noises where they were, they were muffled voices.
ReplyDeleteI suddenly heard a bang, it startled me, it was just a door slamming.
I looked up and the figure was walking towards me. I started to run, but slipped on the wet concrete and fell to the floor. I started to tremble and looked behind me, luckily the figure turned down the other alleyway, he had not seen me. I was safe, that was a close.
Well done, Daniel! You have thought really carefully about how to build suspense. This is a wonderful mystery story
DeleteOne day it was dark and rainy and this shadow went into a tunnel, which had nobody inside it. When the rain had stopped the shadow went out of the tunnel, and stepped into a deep muddy puddle. Then the people began seeing his foot prints and his shadow. Then someone started following him home. The shadow lived in a flat, the shadow did not know where he was going so he went to the wrong flat. The person behind stopped following him and went to the flat which the shadow was supposed to go to. Then he realised he was in the wrong flat. Next all of a sudden he had eyes, then his face and his whole body appeared. He lived in his own home again in peace.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Simran. I like how you've thought about the character behind the shadow. Very interesting ending!
DeleteOnce upon a time it was a dark and gloomy night and as I was walking back from the cemetery after visiting my great grandmother to do a little bit of shopping. I saw a suspicious shadow of a man following me.
ReplyDeleteMy heart started beating faster than the speed of sound and every bit of hair on my body started to rise and at that moment I had goosebumps. I wanted to run as fast as I could but I could not move a single bone or muscle in my body.I could hear a man calling my name,and I turned and realised it was my dad!

Well done, Gurpersaad. You have remembered to describe how you were feeling.
DeleteOnce upon a time there was a girl called Sophie. She was playing in her room. Suddenly she herd someone coming up the stairs but it didn't sound like her mum's footsteps. The door burst open and the lights turned off. Sophie was frightened and the next thing she knew, she was grabbed and thrown in to a large sack.
ReplyDeleteThe front door then slammed shut. Mum went to check on Sophie but her room was empty. There was a note left saying "give me 1000 pounds and you will get your daughter back". Mum started to cry. She called the police straight away.
Great story, Ishani! You have remembered what we learnt about building suspense. Well done.
DeleteThe Scary Shed
ReplyDeleteOne rainy afternoon I was walking home from Granny’s and I did not have an umbrella, so I decided to stop for shelter in a shed. I stepped over the broken door and looked inside. I could see my shadow on the floor in front of me. I looked up and saw a pair of green eyes in the far corner of the shed…IT WAS A MONSTER! I screamed and ran out of the shed shaking with fear and went home and had some tea. My dad said what I saw was a fox.
Great story, Zara! I really like your twist at the end. Sometimes our mind can play tricks on us!
DeleteOne day I was going home in train after enjoying harvest festival at school. It was dark and stormy night. Passengers started getting off at each station and then I realised that I was all alone in the coach. I was tired and feeling sleepy. Suddenly the train stopped and all the lights switched off. I heard some footsteps coming from back. I was scarred as a scary cat. I felt a hand on my shoulder and my heart started beating fast. I was expecting a loud roar from the spooky ghost. But all I heard was “This is last stop”. It was a train guard.
ReplyDeleteGreat story, Aditya! You've remembered how to use short sentences and the five senses to build suspense
Deletesuspense is about a lot of different things. mystery is about clues and problems.
