The Gaming Ghost

Josh was playing in the playground when he found something. It was a Atari game. Josh had an old Atari in his closet. He looked at the name of the game. It was called “The Gaming Ghost”. He had never heard of that game before, so he searched it up online. There was nothing on the game.

Josh put the game into his pocket and went home with his mom. Josh went to his bedroom and locked the door behind him. He found his old Atari in his closet and plugged it in. Then, he turned it on and inserted the game.

The starting screen terrifed Josh. There were flashes of red and Josh heard deep laughter coming from the game. Instead of the typical starting screen, a high-pitched voice started talking. “Come and play my game, IF YOU DARE”

The change from a high-pitched voice to a deep voice startled Josh. Then, the game started. It didn’t look like an Atari game. It looked very realistic. There was a man on the screen with an evil grin. The man’s face was pale like a ghost. There were wrinkles all over his face and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn’t slept in months.′

The man started laughing with the same high-pitched voice that was heard in the starting screen. The man revealed his hands. They were wrinkly and his fingernails were razor-sharp. Suddenly, the man stretched out his hands, and to Josh’s horror, the man’s hands came out of the screen and grabbed Josh by the throat, pulling him inside. Josh screamed an ear-piercing scream, but it was blocked out by the high-pitched laughter of the man.
