I like to bet on anything that is exciting, so when my friends
tried to tempt me with an offer, I took it. The idea was for me to
spend a frigid December night in a cemetery, all alone, in order to
win twenty dollars. Little did I realize that they would use dirty tricks
to try to frighten me into abandoning the cemetery, therefore losing my wager.
My plan was to recline in front of a large grave, covered by
a warm blanket, with a flashlight to help me cut through the dismal
darkness.
After midnight, I heard a wild shriek. I thought I saw the
grave open and a corpse rise out of it! Although I was somewhat numb
with fear, I tried to keep my senses. Using good judgment, I knew that no
peril could come to me from that sinister figure. When I
did not run in terror, my friends, who had decided to conceal
themselves behind the nearby tombstones, came out and we all had a good
laugh. Those spirits that may inhabit a cemetery must have had a
good laugh, too.
