The Lakeside Ghost Story My stomach was churning as the big bold letters came into view. They read, Camp Lakeside. The bus came to a sudden stop and a counselor at the front of the bus stood up and yelled, Everyone off! A stampede of eager campers rushed from the bus, into the bright sunshine of Lakeside camp. I had been looking forward to the camp for a few months and now that I am here I can t believe it. My friend Justin saved a bunk beside his. I arrived also to the good news that I wouldn t need to take the swimming test.

The two counselors walked quite a distance until they abruptly stopped at an old campfire hangout. We approached slowly an carefully trying not to make a sound when both of them turned around and said hello little kiddies and vanished leaving their lifeless clothes on the ground. We ran as fast as we could towards what we thought was the direction of the road. Then out of nowhere they appear in the darkness ahead moving rapidly at us.
We decided run to the left hoping someone would help us. That s when I looked back and noticed that Tommy wasn t behind me. I kept peering back hoping to find some trace that he was behind me, but nothing only the two fierce ghosts. When I finally reached the main road I flagged down a police car and blurted to the police officer Lakeside Camp is a ghost camp. The officer looked puzzled and said Lakeside Camp burned down over 30 years ago..
