Some Spooky News
I wish, wish, wish I could go see Spook Story this weekend," George Fayne moaned.
Nancy Drew smiled at her best friend. I know,
she said as she gathered up her books and jacket from the classroom closet. It was the end of the day on Friday, and everyone was getting ready to go home. Too bad our parents said we’re not allowed.
Nancy’s other best friend, Bess Marvin, shivered. There’s no way I’d ever see a movie like that no matter what my parents said,
Bess declared. It sounds way too scary!
Nancy, Bess, and George were all eight years old and in Mrs. Reynolds’s third-grade class. In lots of other ways, though, they were all very different from one another. For one thing, they looked different. Nancy had reddish-blond hair, while Bess’s hair was blond, and George’s was dark brown. They also had very different opinions about scary movies. George loved them. Bess hated them. Nancy just thought they were silly.
The girls’ classmate Jason Hutchings heard what Bess said. What’s the matter, Bess?
he teased. Are you a ’fraidy cat?
His friends David Burger and Mike Minelli started chanting, ’Fraidy cat, ’fraidy cat!
over and over again.
Bess’s cheeks turned pink. Quit it!
she cried. I’m not a ’fraidy cat. I just don’t like ghost movies!
Mike grinned. If you don’t like ghosts, you’d better stay away from the park,
he told Bess.
What do you mean?
Nancy asked curiously.
Jason shrugged. Everyone knows the park is haunted.
The boys rushed away before Nancy could ask any more questions. Nancy, Bess, and George walked toward the door more slowly. They stepped into the hall.
I wonder why he said that,
Nancy said. I’ve never heard about the park being haunted.
I have!
Lindsay Mitchell spoke up. She was right behind them with her friend, Jennifer Young.
George wrinkled her nose at Lindsay. Were you listening to our conversation?
she asked. Lindsay was famous around school for being a gossip. She liked to know what was going on at all times, and she liked to tell people about whatever she found out.
It’s okay, George,
Nancy said. She wanted to know what Lindsay had heard. Nancy didn’t believe in ghosts, but she thought it was strange that people were saying the park was haunted. Nancy loved to solve mysteries. Her father, Carson Drew, said she was a natural detective.
Lindsay tossed her long hair over one shoulder. Everyone’s talking about it,
she declared. Her voice got low and spooky. They say there are strange noises and creepy lights in the woods behind the playground.
That’s right,
Jennifer added. I heard that even the police are afraid to go in the woods now! Like Lindsay said, everyone is talking about it.
George frowned. "Everyone isn’t talking about it, she said.
Nancy and Bess and I didn’t know anything about it until now."
That’s probably because we haven’t been to the park for a few days,
Bess pointed out. She wrapped her arms around herself, looking nervous. "And if there
