The four main characters Greg, Shari, Michael, and Bird were
talking about what to do and how bored they were on the baseball field.They
thought about what to do, Shari said” Let’s just talk about how bored we are.”
None of them agreed. Then Bird said, “Let’s go to the Coffman house!” Greg got
a shiver up his spine. Greg said” We shouldn’t go in there. Spidey lives
there!” Spidey was a homeless man who lived in the deserted Coffman house. “So
what! You don’t know that Spidey is even there right now! Let’s go!”, and with
that, Shari lead the way to the Coffman house.
When the four of them got there, they all made sure that
Spidey was not at the house “Spidey is not here” Michael said. Now that the
four friends knew they were safe they started to explore.”It’s really dark in
here. “Greg said,But he knew why. The windows were blocked by the blinds.Suddently
Michael said” Where is Bird!?” Then they allstart looking for him. Then, they
here “Help!! Help!! It’s got me!!” They went running down to the basement to
see what was going on. Then they see Bird, perfectly fine, sitting on a couch. They
were all really mad at him, but bird was laughing really hard.Then, Greg finds
a camera in a secret compartment in a furnace.he ta out takes the camera and
examines it. He goes back to his friends to show them what he had found. He
said “Hey guys!! Look what I found!” And they all look at it in a strange way.Then
Michael says “take my picture Greg” Greg put the camera to his eye, and took
the picture. As soon as the picture was taken, Michael fell on the ground,
holding his ankle. Then the picture came out. The picture showed Michael
falling, holding his ankle. Michael confessed that he didn’t fall while the
picture was taken. Then they heard footsteps, “Spidey’s back” Bird said. They
all crept over to the exit. But it was too late, Spidey had reached the exit
before them. Spidey was walking down the stairs towards them, he reached his
hand out too Greg, Greg dodged him and they ran up the stairs and out of the
house. When Greg went home he thought that the camera was broken for sure. When
he go home he saw that his mom bought a He shook his head and went into his
house. When he got to his room Greg knew exactly where to put it. He had a
secret compartment in his cabinet. Then, his dad told him” Let’s go on a ride
in our new car!’’, and off they went.
When they
were driving his dad kept on telling him to’’ Test out the seatbelt” or “ see
if the back seat can recline” and kept on asking until Greg said” Don’t hit the
truck!!!’’ Then his dad swerved back into his lane and turned around for home.
The next day Greg, Shari, Michael, and Bird walked to school. They talked about
their experience at the Coffman house. After school the for friends went to
Shari’s house for her birthday party. Shari deboned Greg into bringing the
camera and he refused, but after all, it was Shari’s birthday. When he got the
camera he took Shari’s picture, and the picture came out. Greg and Shari
huddled over the picture. It showed everything but Shari. Greg took another
one, it looked the same. Then it was time to go back inside to eat cake and
sing happy birthday When they all came in. Shari wasn’t there. Bird went to go
get her, but couldn’t find her. When he got home he ripped the two pictures in
half. Then he took a nap for two hours. He got woke up by the phone. He
answered, and it was Shari. The next day Greg told his three friends what
happened and how it happened. It started to make a little more sense. It was
either the camera was evil, or it was broken. Michael and Bird were too scared
to go back to the Coffman house, so Greg and Shari went to return the camera.
When they got to where it was Spidey confronted them. He told them to sit down
“I’ll explain everything. It was a long time ago when I was a scientist my
partner created a camera that would cost a fortune. So I stole it from him, but
he knew I was going to do this, so he put a curse on it. When I used for the
first time I thought it was broken, but it just made it dangerous. So I kept it
with me, so it would not be put in the wrong hands, you two know too much, so I
me you must keep you in here forever.” Shari and Greg exchanged looks.” You
can’t keep us here forever!!’’ they both said in unison. They tried to run away
but Spidey was too fast .Then, Greg pushed the camera to take a picture, and
Spidey fell to the ground, eyes wide, and motionless. He was dead. When the
friends met up the next day they really knew what happened. The camera had
killed him, and they put the camera back so no one would find it again
