Sleepover Gone Wrong

I was having a sleepover at my friend's house, which was going to be awesome, since he was inviting over 8 other kids. For those of you who think it's weird for a boy to be having a "slumber party" with his friends can say whatever the frick they want to say, but we all enjoy it (just to pull all-nighters and such).

I packed my bag as I fast as I can and left through the door. The car ride was a while, but I eventually made it.. 30 minutes late. I walked right in to be greeted by all my friends (ah, the cornyness)... I went straight to the basement where we were sleeping and threw my bag across the room to where I was sleeping. As I hurried back upstairs, I heard a faint sound of tv static behind me. I turned around quickly, to be greeted by nothing. "That's strange" I thought. I continued up the stairs and hanged out with my friends for a while.

As the time approached 11:00 PM, we all were watching a movie. I forget what it was called, it was like some horror movie, which made all of us frightened to death! Sleep was out of the thought, but we decided that once the movie was over, we would head to the basement where we could all get into our sleeping bags or whatever and just talk. So once the credits appeared, we all headed for the stairs. Now as the 8 of us were there, we noticed that the light to the basement was off, strangely. Fred, the host, went to go find the light swich, while the other 7 of us waited. "Ahh!!" Someone fell down the stairs. The group became nervous and desperately wanted Fred to turn on the light as soon as possible to go help the injured kid, who we were guessing was Nick. The person's pain was expressed through horrible screams, which seemed to blast my ear drums. Fred, in the distance of his big house, yelled "Found it!" and in a flash, the light was flickered on. The whole group of us looked downward to see no one at the bottom of the stairs. "I thought Nick fell down the stairs" said Dan. "I know, me too!" said Tom. I decided that we should check who's not in our group. We all yelled out are names, (DAN, TOM, FRED, TREVOR, JOHN, SCOTT, PAT) but there was no name, Nick. We all headed down into the basement, but there was no Nick in sight. We were all nervous at first, then we started to laugh. "Come out Nick, we know your somewhere!". No answer. I tried to act doubtful too, but I knew inside, something was wrong.

As we began to chat in our sleeping bags, I thought about Nick. Where is he? They're aren't any other doors down here in the basement. Questions went through my head.

It was a good 2 hours of talking, because after 1:00 AM, things started to get scary. Only 4 of us were talking (Dan, Trevor, Tom, and Scott). This whole time, we were all staring up at the ceiling as we talked, we never looked over. So I decided to look over to see if the other 3 were asleep. I was wrong... they were gone. The 4 of us knew something was fishey, and that we should go look around the massive house. There were no flashlights to be found, so we just used our phones for light. We first explored the kitchen, then the living room, then the outside. There was a huge snack break, and then we continued to wander. Next were the dining room, garage, and balcony. Nope, nothing! We all hurried back down into the basement, filled with dissapointment. "Back to square 1" said Scott. We all sat down to think. Again...again....yes, I think I was hearing it again...the TV static...this time, it was louder......stronger and more irritating! "Hey guys?" I asked slowly and quietly. "Do you hear that noise?...That..TV static? "Yeah!" Exclaimed the 3 of them. We all stood up and looked around for the source of the sound. I headed upstairs with Dan, while Tom and Scott investigated the basement more.

It was a pretty long time, but in the end, the 2 of us found nothing. We decided to head downstairs to ask Tom and Scott if they found anything, which would be giving up if they didn't. We came to the end of the staircase to find no one, no one at all. Tom and Scott were gone like the 3 others. Just gone. They couldn't have passed us by going upstairs because Dan and I were around that area. This means that they vanished in the basement.

......Basement.......

Dan and I searched around the basement and couldn't find a single clue, except the irritating sound of TV static, that was driving me crazy! I swear, I could hear the TV like it was an inch away from me. I became angry and pounded the wall violently, which actually caused it to crack. "Oh my gosh!" I screamed. "Does this mean that I owe Fred..." I stopped in the middle of my sentence as the wall came down to a crash, which revealed a dark, glowing room. Dan and I stepped in with fear. There, to our most shocking surprise in our life, was 6 of the kids watching a static TV. They were idle and not moving. Dan and I looked at each other, noticing each other's fear, and started to walk towards the kids. We began by reaching out and touching them, which did nothing but give a chill through my body. We both went in front of them all and blocked the TV, blasting static. The kids still had their empty eyes facing the direction of the TV, which was creeping me out A TON! By now, I was frozen in fear. What were they doing? "Dan..." I quietly whispered to Dan. "Dan?" I asked. I slowly turned my head to see Dan, frozen, watching the TV like the others. I screamed in fear, and started to call the police. All of a sudden, Nick came out of his statue-like position and snatched my phone. I trembled to the ground, about to faint. Before blurring out, I saw him crush it into a hundred pieces.

My vision went black

I woke up at 3:00 AM to see all my friends circling me. Where was I? I looked down at the ground to see myself tied to a pole outside, behind Fred's house. They were all cheering the statement "Kill the one who hasn't left" What the hell did that mean? Whatever, I just kept closing my eyes and begging for them not to kill me, or whatever they were going to do. Fred took out a large chainsaw that was probably from his Dad's shed and began to walk towards the pole I was tied to. "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM FRED?!? I'M YOUR FRIEND. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!? NICK, DAN, TOM, STOP HIM! BEFORE HE KILLS ME! PLEASE MAKE HIM STOP! HELP ME!!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

Light's began flicker from behind all the kids. I was soon brought down from the cops, and the kids were arrested.....

3 hours later...

I was soon facing 3 police officers in the police department. Each one of them explained to me different segments of the night, and what happened.

The TV controlled people's minds. It could tell you anything and you would obey its commands. The TV was in Fred's house because in 2002, a burglar hid under their house for 3 months and Fred's famlily had no idea. He was living next to the basement, and he placed a TV down there. He was a hypnotist, and always put on his programs to hypnotise himself. He got too hypnotised and left his hide-out while the program was still on. He buried the hole and without knowing, he basically madei it a secret TV room. Once the program ended, the static came on and made a hypnosis that would make people want to kill people that were not hypnotised, a.k.a left. (If you remember the statement.) The kids found the room by listening to what the static told them. It told them to find the room. Find the room where the TV is. The wall was never destroyed because they went through the burgaler's hole.. not the wall.

The kids were soon out of the hypnosis, and the cops destroyed the TV and threw the program in the dumpster. How stupid for them not to burn it...
