I stood in the middle of my bedroom with the key to the neighbours house. Mum said we were moving there in two days. I went to check it out. I didn't like at first I'd never liked it. The other family moved out of it because of some nightmares their kids had. 
Five days later...
We had moved into the neighbours house now it was bigger and so spacious. Yet there was something off. "Jessica!!!" My little sister Jayla had called me again. Was it for another bad dream? I walked to her room and found a hole in her wall next her bed which was currently resealing itself. I looked at my phone quickly, it said 'tick tock you don't have all night but there is a clock on a bomb it belongs near or far? WHERE EVER YOU ARE!' That freaked me out a little but then I put my phone away and stared at Jayla lying in bed with her top lifted. I'd never seen a nine year old with so many bruises. Then I thought to myself they weren't there before she went to bed so where had they come from? They had appeared out of nowhere. "Mum, whats there history of this house?" But mum didn't know because she moved in without wanting to know any of the past and the house's history. How stupid was that? I texted my best friend Taylor and told her to get her ass to  my house right now with all the research files she had found on the house. We sat outside on the bench in my garden. It was a swinging bench we sat on and we swung while looking through the files until we found something. "You think its true?" Taylor asked. 
"Only one way to find out I guess." I grabbed two shovels and handed one to Taylor. We put the files and research on the swinging bench and started digging. I hit something hard and we started digging faster. Taylor found some research that this house was once a cemetery but they were moved. The gravestones may have been moved but the bodies weren't. I clicked open the coffin. And the first body was gone... The second popped up like a zombie and the third had rotted to the bone. Taylor and I thought we had had enough for one day. We weren't going to do that again. I told my mum and Taylor showed her the files. But right in front of Taylor's face... "I thought I told you to stay away from her she's trouble you know! I told you to make friends with that Evie." 
"You dont control me! Are you even my real mum? You can't ever choose my friends! Wait if you want to do that you might as well choose who I marry and the name of my baby! How about now many kids I have?" I stormed into my own bedroom after I pulled out my hand and hit my mum right around her face. Taylor sat next to me and comforted me while I watches my mother dig up her own garden to find coffins. She fell to her knees and began to cry but she forgot that there was an open coffin... She slid down and landed in the empty coffin. It banged shut on top of her. Then I heard something. "Jessica im home!!" Was the spirit pretending to be mum now or was that what had happened before? I was so confused. Taylor hadnt heard the call. I thought it really was the spirit but then I remembered that my mother had said to me that she was going shopping that morning and she would call out when she was home. I didn't know what to think was my mother dead or alive? Jayla ran upstairs and hugged me. "Mum is a spirit!! Mum is a spirit." At that point I had no idea what to think. Was my mother really a spirit or was she alive? Were my sister and I trapped in this house forever if our mother was dead? What if our mother was alive but we didnt know a d we tried to kill her? I worried so much but could everything really have led to this?
