One foggy day there was an awesome girl named Tess and she lives in a house that was close to a nearby forest some say that it’s special. Later that day I saw people taking pictures of something so I decided to go and explore and see what was so special about it.

As I walked towards the forest it was hard to see what was going on there so as I got closer there was a footpath filled will rose paddles. So then I walked on the stairs and it was a little bit scary because there was long trees that like those spooky trees then I saw something in the distance I thought it was a ghost but it was a false alarm thought it was time to go home so off I went back home.

A train went into a strange tunnel filled with grass, leaves, bushes and even some bamboos. Then the people didn't hear anything until a train was speeding and then BANG! The train hit BOOM! towards the people!! Everybody else was okay. But I called the ambulance when they arrived at the train station the group of people went to the hospital I was very worried and so I hopped on the train and took off.

The Lion King

In the holidays, my family and I went to HOYTS cinema to watch the new movie called The Lion King. Well it's kind of a old movie (Remake), but this Lion King is a new one with new parts and new scenes.

The characters of the lion king are Simba, Mufasa, Nala, Shenzi, Zazu, Timon, Pumbaa, Scar, Sarabi, Azizi, Kamari, Rafiki and (Hyenas).

The movie had lots of comedy parts  like Pumbaa and Timon were fighting the hyenas
One of the sad moments in the movie was when Simbaa lost his dad (Mufasa)
But one of the really weird parts was when Timon and Pumbaa were eating bugs.



The voice behind the characters.

The ghost of Anne Tottenham?

21 year old English man, Thomas Beavis, snapped a pretty spooky photo whilst on a tour of a haunted mansion in Ireland.

Thomas was flicking through the photos on his camera from the tour of Lotus Hall and was shocked to find a ghostly figure of what appears to be a young girl in the background of one of his shots.

Thomas says that everyone was already feeling a little spooked after the tour but after he showed his friends the photo, they freaked out.

Legend tells of Lotus Hall being home to the Tottenham family in 1766 and soon after the youngest child, Anne, became ill and claimed to have witnessed a paranormal experience of her own – leading her parents to lock the girl away in one of the rooms until she died.

Thomas says he got the chills when he found the spooky figure in the photo and still doesn’t quite believe what he has captured on camera.

So is it a trick of the light? Or is it the ghost of Anne Tottenham?
