The Haunted Castle
Ben Smith

One afternoon last winter, my friend Danny and I decided to visit Holroyd Castle. When we arrived, it was freezing cold and starting to rain, so we quickly went inside.
We walked slowly through the dark, cold rooms and corridors. The castle was huge and empty and all we could hear was the sound of our footsteps on the stone floor. We wandered around for half an hour before we realised that we were lost.
Luckily, as we turned a corner, we saw a tall man wearing old-fashioned clothes and carrying a lantern. He asked us to follow him. While we were walking, he told us about the paintings on the walls. He spoke in a strange, old-fashioned way and when I asked him a question, he didn’t answer. Back in the entrance hall, we turned around to thank our guide, but he wasn’t there any more. Outside, we chatted to a friendly workman about our visit and our helpful guide. “Ah, you met the castle’s ghost, Lord Fredrick! He was an artist and the owner of the castle in the 18th century. He sometimes helps visitors and tells them all about his paintings,” he told us excitedly.
Danny went white and I started shaking. We felt very shocked and scared. We’ll never forget this experience.
