Blog Post #9

I started reading A collection of Horror Stories by Anthony Horowitz. I only got to read two stories so far, but I must say, I am intrigued. My favorite story so far is called the night bus. It's basically about two kids who are at a Halloween party. They miss their ride home so they decide to take the bus. After A while on the bus, they realize it's a bus that takes dead people to their cemeteries. I thought it was interesting because he didn't give away that it was a bus of dead people for a while. He used creative things like a man and a woman who were soaking wet (they died from drowning in the Titanic.) There was a motorcyclist and he had a huge gash in his head. It was funny because the conducter who took their tickets (he was very nice) asked them how they came (he meant ho they died, but they didn't know that.) They got a ride from their parents to go to the party so they said "Our dad's car." The conducter commented that it was awful how such young kids go. When I read this I LQTM'd (LQTM= Laughing Quietly To Myself.)
