When I asked my students to write a spooky story, they needed some stimulation, I did read a few stories for them and at the same time, I created my own too......

Written by Banu Priya, The ending was written by my student.

It all began when I was getting my things ready for school in my room, I used to be a night owl and inclined toward settling things at late hours. Out of the blue, I heard an unusual sound in the kitchen. It was bizarre, I never heard the sound before, it was like something dribbling down in the kitchen, and decided to ask my mother to find out what was happening in the kitchen.
    However, to my horror, my mom was not in her room.
"where is my mom as it is 12.30 midnight "? I mumbled in fear.
  So, I had no other choice, I braced myself to go and find out what was causing the strange sound. I tip-toed to the kitchen, and the dribbling sound was getting louder. This time the sound gave me goosebumps and I had a strong instinct that something paranormal was happening in my house.
   So, I hesitated to take another step to walk toward the kitchen, Come rain or shine, I had to do this to disclose this paradox. I walked up straight to the kitchen as if nothing to fear, I peeped into the kitchen through the slightly opened kitchen door.
 {  The kitchen was dark so I couldn't see anything. Suddenly, I noticed a silhouette slowly fading away. I stood motionless as the panic spread through me like an infection at the same time I was praying that it was not some kind of ghost or spirit. When I turned on the lights, I was so relieved and sighed thankfully it was just my mom trying to fix the pipe leakage. I wouldn't forget this incident because this experience nearly hit me with a heart attack.( credit to Rashaan reddy, BM High school}
