Ghosts by Olivia D

I see people having fun and few people are faint and ghostly. A woman looked at the camera with a scary face look, maybe she was laughing at the man, or something. The tall buildings cover other houses behind, I wonder if the other people see these faintly ghost people. I think the humans go there to have a fun time and spend time with their friends, brothers or sisters. I do not think the ghost people are having fun because they do not look that happy; it looks like they miss when they were alive with their kids.

Izzy was just about to settle down to watch her favourite TV program called, ‘A Ghost In My Town’ when her mum shouted, “Can you go to the shops please we’ve ran out of milk.” Izzy got up not wanting to go and headed out. It was strange, the town seemed empty and cold. But when she half closed her eyes she could see people faintly appearing. Her head started to hurt and as she closed her eyes, she could hear her mum, “Izzy , wake up!” As she came round her TV program was on. Was it real what just happened? Izzy wasn’t sure.

In the run up to Christmas some strange things were happening in Newcastle. There were people rushing around but there were also ghosts! You might think that ghosts aren't real, but think again. These strange ghouls keep popping up everywhere, it is believed that they appear from a basement on Nithdale Close. Do not worry; they are not dangerous, except for one who is Maggie Balder. If you see Maggie she looks like this: she has a red jacket and a black shirt on, she also has black ripped jeans and red high tops. Remember you can't see her properly!

People have been wondering why ghosts have been appearing around the city of Paris in France. Not many people have been aware of this, but there has been an anonymous legend going through a very unusual family. This legend tells us that one day a prisoner will escape from prison and dig up his father from his grave. This grave is no ordinary grave. It is really powerful. If it opens, it makes all the dead people come out of their coffins and become ghosts 
Today the grave has been opened and ghosts are haunting the shopping streets of Paris.

Ghosts are everywhere. In your town, at your school and even in your house. So, don’t get tricked because for all you know a ghost can be watching you right now and you wouldn’t even know it. But not all ghosts are good, some have the ability to change time to change you! Never wish to see a ghost or you might just become one. However, if it's your absolute dream, there is one way to see a ghost. At midnight, on the day of a blue moon every twenty-five years, ghosts become visible - but only if you are smart enough to see them... 

Ghosts (News Report) by Alexander

This week, a photographer has taken a photo of some shoppers and what seems like some rather strange ghosts joining them. It was last night at 8:00pm. The photographer and the shoppers claim that they did not see the ghosts walking / floating around everyone, only the camera caught them. When the photographer looked over the photo, he was so astonished, he fainted. Police were called in and they looked over the photo on his camera and investigated it. They have not found an answer yet but think it's just a glitch in the camera's database.

The faceless figures strolled through the shopping centre like shadows. A little girl asked her mum, “Why can I see the ground through my feet?” The girl was wearing a nightdress, no shoes or socks, and had a flowery duvet wrapped around her tiny, weak body. Her mother replied, “Do you remember when you were very ill, and you stayed in your bed for a week?” The girl nodded. “You got so cold, your heart stopped. That’s why your feet are transparent. And I was sick from the same thing. We died an hour apart from one another.” They hugged.

flame, swimming, celebrated, white, tomorrow by Grace E

Tomorrow is the anniversary of when it happened. When we celebrated my little sister's 7th birthday, at a swimming pool in Boston. I don’t remember that much about the incident. I remember that I was wearing a plain white costume, and that my flame red, ginger hair was tied up in a ponytail. Mum had told me what happened. That the pool's slide had a loose bolt that had come untightened, and that I was just unlucky that I was the child who's leg it stuck into. But I will always have a souvenir of the incident. Only one leg.

We all crowed round the outdoor swimming pool which had the best view of the clear blue sky. Burst of colourful fire shot up into the air before exploding with a loud bang. We celebrated. Just then a single firework came descending down onto the pool floor. Instead of fizzing out it came shooting up bouncing around the swimming pool bursting it into flames. What was once a shiny, white family outdoor pool was now a heap of ashes. The world went silent apart from the soft sound of tears. Tomorrow was going to be a long day.

Tomorrow the sky will be filled with huge orange, white, red and blue flames; that’s because it's going to be Bonfire Night. It is celebrated because Guy Fawkes and others planned to blow up the Houses of Parliament by placing lots of gun powder under the great building. To get the gun powder barrels without being discovered probably involved swimming in the Thames and the smelly sewers... Luckily their plan failed and they were caught. He joined the team on 20th May 1604; he was captured 5th November 1605. Guy Fawkes penalty was to be hung, drawn and quartered. Ouch!!

The countdown to my swimming competition was here, tomorrow was the big day. I had been chosen to carry the baton, it wasn’t like it was the Olympic flame or anything, but it was special to me. I got there, and no one was allowed in because the pool had turned white! They managed to clean it out and finally everyone was allowed in so they all celebrated with joy but then all of a sudden, a man came in and said, “This swimming pool is not allowed for competitions.” The pool all went quiet and the celebrating was over.

flame sprang up in front of me. The snowy, white grass crunched as we walked across. Fireworks were swimming amongst the stars in the dark sky. Families cheered and celebrated, Guy Fawkes never blew up the Houses of Parliament. I was standing in the middle of my garden, the bonfire in front, and the fireworks behind. A burger in my hand, a smile on everyone’s face, you would think I was happy. However, I knew that tomorrow, all that would be left was a pile of ash and some used matches. I had unearthed a new train of thought.

On the 5th of November, me and my family went to a Bonfire Night that was celebrated by our friends. It was so fun, and I enjoyed every little bit of it, especially when the massive flame came from the beautiful bonfire. I loved the different colours that came from the flames. The white firework looked a little plain, but it still looked good, then after when I got home I watched a swimming event that was also celebrating Bonfire Night. Tomorrow, I cannot wait to tell my friends about it at school, I bet they will love to hear about it!

On Bonfire Night we went swimming first, as we headed towards the lake all the trees that lined the pathways were covered in bright white lights. Until that night I hated fireworks because of the sound they make. As the fireworks started the flame of the first firework lit up the whole area surrounding the lake. I am so glad we celebrated Bonfire Night here. As the amazing firework display slowly ended we had time to call at the sweet shop for a sweet treat. We ate our treat on the way back to the villa for our last night there. Sadly, we have to leave tomorrow I wish every bonfire night could be as special as this one.

Dear Diary,
Today was so fun I went swimming with my family and I am particularly excited for tomorrow because it's Bonfire Night. Last year we celebrated I was a little irritated by the loud fireworks, but this year I'm going to love it. If you don’t know Bonfire Night is a festival we celebrate in the UK. Often, there's a big firework show. The white, colourful flame of the fireworks spread through the sky like aeroplanes making it look like a beautiful scenery of colours mixed together on a black background. Right I need to go now.
Bye xx

Tomorrow is the big day, it is Bonfire Night! I have been waiting for this day to arrive all year as it is my favourite day of the year. The reason why Bonfire Night is my favourite day of the year is because I see hundreds of thousands of bright white, luminous yellows and dazzling green fireworks all swimming and skipping across the cold night sky. I have celebrated Bonfire Night with my family every year since I was a baby. My favourite aspect of Bonfire Night is the flame of the bonfire; they were dancing like beautiful ballet dancers.
