Last year on the night before Halloween, I was listening to the radio. There was a contest on 92.3. The contest required that if you call up, and Chunky doesn’t hang up on you and give good reason for wanting to go to Six Flags, then you win 2 free tickets to Six Flags Fright Fest. Right after I heard this announcement on the radio, the doorbell rang. I went downstairs to the front door and answered it. It was Effie. I brought him up to my room. I told him to call 92.3. He called the radio station but Chunky hung up on him. Then I called and I heard Chunky say, “Hey this is Chunky! Tell me why you think you deserve the tickets to Six Flags Fright Fest.” I thought quickly about it and said, “SIX FLAGS ROCKS YOUR FACE!” I waited a little and heard “Congratulations! You just won two free tickets to Six Flags Fright Fest! I will personally drop the two tickets off at your house tomorrow. I will also include a limo to take you there and back.” I screamed. I then told Effie that I had won the contest. I asked him if he wanted to come and he said, “Is that a joke? Of course I’m coming!” I told him that the limo would leave from my house at noon tomorrow. For the rest of the night, Effie and I watched a movie.
Sure enough, the next morning Effie arrived at my house at 9 a.m. I could tell by the look on his face that he was super excited and couldn’t wait until noon. He had to arrive super early. Both of us were way too happy to speak although I forced out the words, “Six Flags has been building a new haunted house for the past year.” We both looked at each other. Great minds think alike. We both nodded out heads. (Without even saying anything, we both decided to ride that ride first.) We had passed the time by eating and text bombing one of our friends. Literally, every minute we would go to the bathroom so we wouldn’t have to go at the park and waste any time. Finally the time came. The limo showed up in front of my house. We both got on. The entire ride to Six Flags, we played with all the buttons on the limo.
When we got to six flags, we rushed to the new haunted house. We got the first ride of the day! When we got on the ride, the ride manager launched us into the house. After about ten seconds inside the house, we stopped moving. All the lights went out. All we could hear were people talking and laughing. Effie and I both thought this was part of the ride. After sitting there for ten minutes we heard a loud “BANG”. Someone had jumped onto our cart. It was a zombie clown! There was blood all over his face. There was no way this could be part of the ride. The clown had picked up someone in front of us. The clown brought her by the wall and then she screamed so loud that caused everyone else on the ride to scream. She screamed so loud that I woke up to find myself sitting in my bed, holding the two tickets in my hand, when I heard a limo pull up to the front door…
