One day this man pulled up at an old house. He was nice, too. He walked to the door. The man knocked and the old door creaked open.
Then a witch grabbed him. He yelled! A ghost shot out of the closet. The witches’ friends came to see.
The witch said, “Take him and put him in the stew.” So the.* did. The witches had a tasty stew that night.
