ONE DAY WHEN BILL WAS OUT PLAYING, HE SAW AN OLD HOUSE.
THIS OLD HOUSE LOOKED VERY INTERESTING TO HIS FRIENDS
AND HIM. AS THEY APPROACHED THE HOUSE THEY COULD HEAR
STRANGE MUSIC, THE MUSIC SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS COMING
FROM AN ORGAN. WHEN THEY LOOKED THROUGH THE WINDOW
THEY SAW A PLASTIC NOOSE HANGING FROM THE CEILING.
THERE WAS ALSO A DEAD CAT LYING ON THE FLOOR. EVERY-
THING IN THE HOUSE WAS DIRTY AND CROOKED. BILL SAID
HE HAD HEARD MANY RUMORS ABOUT THIS HOUSE BUT HE WOULD
NEVER HAVE BELIEVED IT IF HE HAD NOT SEEN IT WITH HIS
OWN EYES.
