2. It was Halloween, and for the first time I was allowed to go with my big brother Mikey
to the bonfire in the crags (*Crags are a rocky area often overgrown)
3. It was dark in the crags so I stayed close to Mikey and the lantern. We could see the
bonfire through the trees
4. When we got to the bonfire we told ghost stories. It was cool but a little scary!!
10. “Is that you Maggie?” said the biggest ZOMBIE. He sounded just like my cousin Danny O’Neill
11. “The boys got scared and ran off,” I said.
“I’ll take you home” said DANNY
12. “Thanks for bringing me home Zombies,” I said.
“Anytime Maggie,” they said. “Your Mam’s waiting.”
13. By the time Mikey got home I had finished my tea, had my bath and was watching TV. Mikey
said he and the boys had searched the whole crags looking for me…silly duffers.
