The Horror of the Boys' Bathroom
by Josh R.

I watched Chris as he ran out of the boys’ bathroom in horror. I asked him what was wrong and he said, ”THE HORROR OF THE BOYS BATHROOM!” I had heard of the horror of the boys bathroom before, but I never thought it was true. I decided to investigate. I went into the boys’ bathroom and the lights were out. So I got a flashlight and looked around. Then I saw it,a hole in the floor.  I went and asked the custodian for a ladder and I brought the ladder into the boys bathroom and climbed into the hole and found that under the school was a haunted house.  All over there was ghosts, vampires, ghouls, bats, and other monsters searched the place and after a while I noticed that I was going in circles.  I knew that if I didn't get home for dinner I would be behind the eight ball.  So I searched and I finally found the way out. 

Right away I went to the principal and he asked me,”Where have you been?”

I said, “It's a long story.” 

He said, “I'm all ears.”  So I told him about the haunted house.  He told me to take him there so I did.  But as soon as he saw the hunted house, he ran out screaming,”THE HORROR OF THE BOYS BATHROOM!” The principal couldn't talk after what he had seen, until another student said,” What's the matter, cat got your tongue?” 

“I was just scared to death.”
"Well what happened, I'm all ears."

Let's just say the horror of the boys bathroom is real.  I need to stop this monkey business, I need to give that haunted house the pink slip. I can't have boys running out of the bathroom with their hearts in their mouths.  At least we have more than one boys' bathroom here. Let's board up that boys bathroom and keep it under our hats.  That haunted house is long-toothed.  How can we keep this under our hat, as everybody knows little pitchers have big ears.  Well, keep your fingers crossed and hopefully that won't happen.

We tried to give the haunted house the pink slip many times, but it just wouldn't take it . We could just demolish it, but that would destroy the school. It will be touch and go 'til we figure something out.

The haunted house was never dealt with--we just boarded up the floor, and we never heard the HORROR OF THE BOYS BATHROOM again.

The End
