Peter was sweating.

He decided that the swing that was outside his house was hexed. It belonged to the Forbes children. Charles Forbes was the owner of The House of Dark Snow.

He pretended not to care about it.

But, try as he might, the sense of evil was in the late October air.

And, for him, he was scared.

Very scared

The trees were frosty.

They seemed to know if anyone came to the House. Various cars were parked in the 6th Avenue streets...as if they were demanding to be re-housed.

But they weren't.

Peter lived near Times Square.

He wondered why his parents chose the Island.

And to be near the scary house.

He saw two girls on the swings.

"Who are you?".

They didn't speak; they opened their red colored eyes.

And breathed into his face.

And, as Peter was frozen.

The girls stopped playing.

Then picked the boy's body up with unnatural strength along the ground...And headed to the House of Dark Snow.

As they reached the front door porch...the door creaked open...And let them inside.
