Then I rushed toward the cabin. I entered slowly. Not long after, I heard a soft tap on the window. Tap... tap... tap. I screamed! I bolted from the cabin to run into the woods. I heard someone following behind me in the distance. I saw a little house. I yelled, “HELP!” I ran back into our cabin. Suddenly, I heard someone knocking on the door. Boom! Boom! Boom! I jumped out the window from the bathroom and looked back. I saw someone that looked like the old woman What should I do? I decided to be brave. I turned around to walk straight toward the old lady.
