There used to be a goblin in my refrigerator! It would eat my food and laugh when it was done. He munched and gobbled with his razor sharp teeth. I even tried to use Saran wrap to cover my food. When it was time to eat and get food for meals I tried to grab the food really quick. I even tried to get my dad to get the food, it never worked. I was terrified of coolers, lunch boxes, and ovens it always felt like the goblin was there. Finally one day I decided to turn the knob on the refrigerator to 0! “That should freeze him!” I thought, and it froze him, it froze him like an ice cube! Now I can get food easily without fear.

There used to be a monster in my room. He always climbed in bed with me and stole my blankets. Before I went to bed I always hoped he wouldn’t visit me. I even clothes-pinned the blankets to me and tried to sleep with my eyes open. When it was time to go to bed, I opened the door and hoped he would go out. Finally one day I decided to make the monster a bed on the floor. Now he has his own place to sleep.

There used to be a witch under my bed. It made me jump when I heard its raspy laughter. Before I would look under my bed I always hoped it wouldn’t put me under a spell. When it was time to go to sleep, I would always tennis racket by my bed. Finally one day I decided to go under my bed and tell the witch a sad story to make the witch cry. It ran away, now I can get some rest.

There used to be a monster in my room. It would always make noise by opening and closing doors and wake me up at 1:00 in the morning.  Every morning before I woke up I hoped it hadn’t eaten me. I even tried covering my ears with my hands When it was time for bed I would read a book to try and ignore it. Finally one day I decided to scare away the monster.  I put on a scary mask and yelled RAR!  The monster flew out the window and it never came back again.

There used to be a goblin under my bed. It tapped under my bed whenever I turned off my light. I always hoped it was not going to touch me. When it was time to wake up I was so tired. Finally I decided to defeat it so one day I pretended to get ready for bed and when it started tapping, I tapped back with my stick. Then the goblin was gone.

There used to be a poltergeist in my yard. He’d bang on my door at night. Before I go to bed I’d hope he wouldn’t come in. I even locked the door! When it was time to go to bed I herd him walking down the hall, he threw a book at my stomach. One night I decided to make him pay! After I trapped him I never saw him again.

There use to be a skeleton in my dresser drawer. It kept stealing my favorite socks! Before I went to bed, I always made sure my dresser was closed and I always hoped the skeleton would go away. I even tried putting mouse traps in my sock drawer! When it was time to go to bed, I grabbed a book and tried to slay it but it didn’t work. Finally one day, I decided to get rid of the skeleton, so I shut the drawer on its head, and it never came back again.
