My next door neighbours, The Johnsons, were all asleep in their coffins when I climbed the fence to get the ball. My family always had weird suspicions about The Johnsons… well.. all of our neighbors for that matter. We grew up living in a not-so-great section of Philadelphia, and things were always out of the ordinary. We knew all of our surrounding neighbors pretty well except for The Johnsons. They had a dog that would guard their fence 24 hours a day so we never had a chance to go over to their house to say hello. However, one day while we were walking by we noticed the dog was not waiting outside to attack. The day was March 15, 2010 and it was beginning to become warm like spring outside. My friend Billy and I were walking around the neighborhood looking for friends to play baseball in my backyard. After we had our crew assembled, we went back to my house to play baseball. Our game was going great until we hit the ball into The …show more content…
As I looked around, I saw three decrepit coffins in the backyard, opened, with three bodies in them: one for Mr. Johnson, Mrs. Johnson, and one for the dog. I thought to myself, “are they dead? Have they been murdered?” I really did not know, but as I walked passed the coffins to get my ball, I saw Mr. Johnson’s chest rise and fall. I was freaked out, so I snached my ball and ran over to the fence and climbed for my life. After I made it to the other side, I told all of the boys about my horrifying experience. They did not believe me at first, but one by one, they looked over the fence to see the living graveyard. Even after March 10th, we were still in astonishment to see the Johnson family sleep in their coffins at night. We eventually came to terms with the weird occurrence, but we did not know why the dog never attacked us on the first day that we went over to the Johnson’s. So one day, we went over to
We left and I said why don’t we just bury him in the ground. We did, we were all so glad we got rid of it. We back to my house and slept for a long time. I woke up and saw the mummy, I said Lukas, we have to go get that mummy. Me and Lukas went grabbed the mummy and snuck in the incinerate place and burned the mummy. We went back, and went to bed.

I went through the cemetery because it is said the demons who burned the church down found home in the dead bodies that are six feet under. I went with my 16 year old sister which was a mistake. I started walking we heard noise in the trees, I just assumed it was a fox or raccoon or something, it scared the hell out of my sister and she latched to my arm and was so close I
I am immensely grateful to have the opportunity to share my knowledge of someone who has inspired and motivated me throughout my lifetime and deserves recognition. John Harold Johnson was born in January 1918 in Arkansas City, Arkansas. Sadly, African Americans had no chance for an education beyond eighth grade in Arkansas City, Arkansas, so, Johnson and his family moved to Chicago where he attended DuSable High School.

Jeremy Johnson had always knew he didn’t belong in unkempt Agrestic with its uneducated residents and a high murder rate. Although he had to live in such awful conditions he defied the typical poor black high school stereotype and excelled in school, was caption of his school’s basketball team, and volunteered at his local youth group. All he wanted was to complete his senior year and get out of the town with his scholarship to Howard University, but he couldn’t graduate without doing one thing first. Helping Lydia. He knew his sister was heading down a life-threatening path and he’d do anything to help her.
John pulled up to the rocky crooked edged driveway, he left his family in the car to check the house out. He came to an old brick mansion with green dull vines like sinister snakes along the sides of the outside wall. John saw the door open automatically, his bones were rattling in his body as if they were shouting to each other. He walked up the stairs that lead in the house as they screamed to him, it was like a girl dyeing painfully. He stepped in the house cautiously. A laugh appeared in the hallway. It was a deep laugh as if it was echoing throughout your ears. Footsteps came towards him slowly. They were moving so quickly you could barely here the floorboards creaking. The sound of the footsteps hauling though the house made john scared.

Suddenly, the cat with three legs crossed the street, and the truck crushed the cat into pieces. Blood was everywhere and one his leg was never found. After we glanced at the cat for a while, we continued the trip. When we turned the bike into cemetery, there was very noisy voice from the cottage house next to the cemetery. It was like someone scream for help. The noise became louder and louder as we went forward. Then, we heard another screaming voice come from the house. We looked over the house and saw the mockingbird locked in the cage. The bird was screaming "help" very loud when we looked at his eyes.
The stars were gleaming in the night sky. Emily, Luke and Tim were eating cold tomato soup in the living area. It was horrid. The groundskeeper began to speak abruptly. “Now, I’m gonna tell you about an incident that happened right here in this building about 8 years ago. Kids just like you were sent here. It was night fall, and the atmosphere was eerie and uncalm. Something was about to go down. Something big! So, as I was saying, every child was heading off to bed when there was harsh sounding scream that came from upstairs. And then there was another after that. A girl and boy had been slaughtered. I looked up towards the staircase and saw a dark black figure with fiery red eyes. For one moment, the hideous looking creature was there, staring at me. The next, vanished!”
Seven years ago on a warm summer day I was nine years old and ready to play my first little league baseball game. As I walk up to the batters box with my grey pants and red shirt I stared down the pitcher with a death stare. The first pitch came in and was a ball high, the next few pitches thrown lead to a 2-2 count. In my mind, I was sacred, but physically I wasn’t. When the fifth pitch came in I made contact. I had no clue I hit it until the third base coach was screaming at me to run. It was a good solid hit that got me to first. As I was running to first I had an amazed look on my face. Three outs later we were playing defense and I got to play right field. It was kind of boring until in the last inning of the game a fly ball was hit my
The Johnson family lacks positive, clear and emotional support or expression. Vanessa has expressed that she truly cares about Tanisha and Jermaine, but finds it difficult expressing it to them. She further explains that during the time that she was growing up there was a lack of emotional bonding with her own parents. She states, “I never felt I was good enough”. “I never felt like I was loved as a child”. She has also stated that she is trying her best to raise Tanisha and Jermaine as she has her own child, but finds it difficult because they've both become so disrespectful. She is afraid if she doesn't seek help for herself and the children. Tanisha will follow in her mother's footsteps and start “running the streets”. Tanisha and Jermaine
The Russell family has been in the military a lot to say the least. My father also named Jerry was in the Air
After her groundbreaking cover, Johnson used her celebrity to champion civil rights causes and open doors for other black models. In the years since, she’s become an actress, entrepreneur, and author, but Johnson can still pose with the best of them. Though she would later go on to grace Vogue’s cover three more times, Johnson’s historic first earned her a place in history and gave modeling one of its biggest stars.

One day i was watching my neighbor run with his dog, on a cold stormy windy december morning, when all of a
Let me catch you up. You see what happened was that I was going trick or treating with my younger brother and dressed up to trick or treat, we stepped out of the house. The air had smelled of delicious candy. It was cold, even for the end of October, it felt as if all the heat had been drained away into the earth. Thinking nothing about it and chattering excitably, we made our way down the sidewalk, when one lamppost went out. Then two blinked out, then three, until the only light in the entire street was the gentle yellow flicker from within the garish jack-o-lanterns and the one at the Emerald Forest Cemetery. We looked at the jack-o-lantern next to us. There was a black cat on it. The black cat had glowing eyes and was sitting on the large orange pumpkin which was surrounded by dead yellow sunflowers. It smelled of foul odors and fish. The cat had made a horrible noise, but I payed no attention to it. Then we looked over at the Emerald Forest Cemetery. There were a lot of rumors about that cemetery, the most famous of them about a boy that went in there and never came back. No kid ever went into Emerald Forest Cemetery.
