“what was that?” was the first thing Amy Miles said to me.
“i don’t know” was the stupidest thing i could have said, but i did.

We were outside Mr. Rushby’s rickety old shack that everyone says is haunted. We were hoping to prove them wrong. My name is Benji Markos and I am in Year 10 at Phillipson Point High. Amy Miles is the girl that everyone is in love with. We were dared to go to Mr. Rushby’s house in Columbia Drive to find out the big question, what is in the house?.

That was this morning. we left school, went home and met up on the corner of Columbia Drive this is where it all went wrong.

All we knew was that Old Man Rushby scared the cahoonees out of everyone and that his house was haunted. Mr. Rushby was Phillipson Point High’s grounds keeper until he was fired after an inquiry into a girl at school’s body was found just metres from his house.
The only thing was what happened to his wife?
