The Dead Ones

Hi, this is a true story, so don't think we're making this up. This happened about 5 months ago. My friend and I were sitting on a deserted lawn, (which was next door. Nobody had lived in it for a month). It was a big lawn, with dead grass and a huge dead tree that had it's bark falling off. We set a maroon towel (which we had just found on the lawn) by the dead tree. I brought out my ipod, and we were listening to it for about 3 minutes, when we heard a crackling noise (which was the kind of noise you hear when somebody steps on a stick.) we got kind of scared , since we were only 10. We ran into my house, and in my room . Then we came out in about 5 minutes. The house was so old and empty, nobody would wanna even touch the dead grass, when we walked up again, the towel was gone! By the way the tree was by the back of the house, so nobody could see it. We were kinda frightened, but we searched for it anyway. "Were could it have gone, the grass is all brown, and the towels dark red. I don't get how we don't see it." I said to my friend. We had already checked in the spot that we put it 3 times. Then knowing we were not gonna find it, we checked in the spot one more time, then... "OH MY GOSH!" We yelled. There it was in the area we checked 3 times. Then we heard something, like a whisper. We turned around and saw a black figure right by the door! We moved into our house after this house was built, so we didn't know the history of it. We didn't know if it was haunted, or just a trick. But we were pretty sure it was real cause my eyes have never played tricks on me. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, the people only lived in the house for a month. The reason they left, was because the saw and heard rats scratching on the wall, thousands of them. Since nobody had lived there, probably 2 months later, they torn down the house. I was kinda relieved, kinda depressed. Relieved because I knew there wouldn't be any more hauntings. Depressed because I knew we wouldn't be able to explore it. Today, the house isn't built all the way but it's all wood. That's the story of, The Dead Ones.

I hope you guys like this story. I know it might not sound that scary, but it was when it happened to me.
