Last Holloween!

Last year on this very same date was the scariest Halloween that I had ever encountered. I had never feared anything (I still don't except God), but after the course of events that occurred, I was very terrified of the outcome that presented itself. This is how it all went down. On October 30, 2007, I was very annoyed by everyone talking about how they were going to prepare for Halloween. And after school, I was walking home with my friends and one of them asked me, "What was I going to do for Halloween?" I simply told him nothing with the frustration of being asked the question carrying out with my answer. All of them blurted out "Are you serious?!" because they knew that we were too old to go trick or treating, but figured we could do something else that will scare all of us like going to the haunted house, to a party, or to the movies. I told them, as well as everyone else, that no one could scare me. It was a long drawn silence before we changed subjects. But, from then on I kinda knew what my friends intentions were. The next day, I was feeling weak all over like I couldn't move at all. I laid down for a while to see maybe I probably slept in the wrong position. Eventually, I got up and could barely walk. When I opened the door, a devil's face lowered because my dad tries to get me every Halloween with. I said,"Nice try daddy!" with the surface of boredom surmounting in my face. I was almost late to get on the school bus. I said hello to my friends, but they were acting real funny. When I went to lunch, I saw that they were trying to set me up by telling me what was going to happen at a party, but I told them I'm still not going. The last period came, and before we were dismissed, the teacher asked us to please be safe. I heard her but I was really ignorant at the same time. We were dismissed, and I was so glad because I was exhausted. As soon as I got home, I immediately jumped in my bed and went to sleep. Once I woke up, I noticed that it was nighttime. I went downstairs to see if my mom and dad were home yet. They weren't. I seen that it was way too quiet. I tried to call them but the power line was out. I still wasn't worried until I went outside and seen that all the lights on my block was out, and no one I mean no one was in sight. I quickly went back in the house and locked every door and window. Soon, I saw the police car approach the house, I went to the door to try and stop him. I did and he was alarmed because he told me that I was the only person in the neighborhood. He told me that the electricity should be back on momentarily. He told me to be safe. At this point, I was ready to panic. After the lights came back on everything was going off including the telephone. the only thing is the telephone continued to ring and every time I picked it up, no one would answer. This happened three times. I tried to call someone but it was like all of their numbers were blocked. Then I realized that someone I knew was playing games with me. The phone rang again and it was very loud. AS soon as I tried to answer someone rang the doorbell. I felt like I was in a horror movie. I was walking slowly toward it, and all of a sudden SOMEONE in a black trench coat with a black hat blasted through my window!!! I raced up the stairs and was sobbing like a little baby in my room once I slammed my door behind me. I thought my life was going to end that night. I heard the person's footsteps come up the stairs, and I was so frightened that I was shaken all over. The person seemed tall like 6'9". I Tried to call the police, but the line was cut off. The dude eventually heard me sob and pulled out a sledgehammer and tore down my door. As he appeared towards me, I started to have all kinds of heart attacks. He lifted the sledgehammer as if he was about to deliver the blow to my head, but before he lowered it he took off his mask, and I noticed that it was the janitor at my school! After that everyone flooded into room screaming, "Happy Halloween!" I felt so sick that I ran to the bathroom and threw up half of my stomach.
