The following script is a project that me and a classmate wrote a few years ago, when i was taking a creative writing class. This was the first script i had ever worked on so its a bit rough, but it was a lot of fun to preform. For privacy's sake, I have censored the classmates name.

ZoZo
By: R**** and Abi
[Sisters Megan and Zoey have just driven up and are walking in the front of an old abandoned 2-story Mansion parallel to the main highway running through their city. The legends say that this house is haunted and Megan is playing a prank on her sister who is a heavy believer in ghosts.]ZOEY: Where are we, Megan? I thought we were going home.
MEGAN: You know that old abandoned house that was rumored to be haunted off the highway?
ZOEY: Oh no, Megan. I've never heard anything good coming from this house. I wanna go home.
MEGAN: Just shut up and follow me.
[Megan grabs Zoey's hand and drags her towards the front of the room.]
ZOEY: Megan, answer me! What are we doing here?
MEGAN: Surprise! I got you a present!
[Drops Ouija Board on the ground.]
ZOEY: You've got to be kidding me!
MEGAN: What?
ZOEY: Nothing good ever comes out of using Ouija Boards! Haven't you seen the movies?!
MEGAN: Dude, there are no such thing as ghosts. It's just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo crap made up to scare you.
ZOEY: I have a bad feeling about this, Megan. We shouldn't be here.
MEGAN: Either you sit down and do this with me or I tell Mom and Dad you weren't really at study group tonight.
[Megan sits down. Sets up ouija board.]
ZOEY: But that would be a lie!
MEGAN: So? I'm Mom and Dad's favorite anyway. Who do you think they'd believe?
ZOEY: Fine, but you're gonna regret this.
[Zoey reluctantly sits down.]
MEGAN: Hold on. I gotta set up the candles first. We gotta be able to see.
[Megan pulls candles out of bag and begins to set them in a semi-circle around the board.]
ZOEY: Why can't we just use the flashlights on our phones?
MEGAN: No, Zoey. That's not how ghosts work. They like candles. Just put your fingers on the planchette.
[Puts fingers on the planchette.]
ZOEY: [Hesitantly places fingers on planchette]
MEGAN: You gotta move it in a circle 3 times first and then ask a simple yes or no question.
[They both move the planchette in a circle three times.]
ZOEY: I can't believe you're making me do this.
MEGAN: Is there anyone here that wants to talk to us?
[Planchette moves to yes on the board.]
ZOEY: Oh my god. Please no.
MEGAN: Okay then. What's your name?
[Planchette goes to Z and then travels to O. This happens back and forth, increasing in speed.]
MEGAN: Z. O. ZoZo?
[Planchette stops suddenly on the "O".]
ZOEY: Yes.
MEGAN: What? Zoey are you okay?
ZOEY: Zoey isn't here right now. I'll be sure to let you know when she is back.
MEGAN: This isn't funny, Zoey. Stop messing around.
ZOEY/ZOZO: ZoZo does not mess around.
MEGAN: I mean it, Zoey! Stop!
ZOEY/ZOZO: Zoey isn't here right now.
MEGAN: Where is she then?!
ZOEY/ZOZO: Gone.
[Shrugs shoulders.]
MEGAN: How do I get her back?
ZOEY/ZOZO: How about we make a deal?
MEGAN: Why on earth would I make a deal with a demon?
ZOEY/ZOZO: Do you want to see your sister again?
MEGAN: I don't need to make a deal with you! I just move the planchette to goodbye, adios, see ya later. You give me back my sister and we get the heck outta here.
ZOEY/ZOZO: We'll see about that.
[Planchette flies off the board, all of the candles are blown out, and Zoey/ZoZo starts walking away]
MEGAN: Where are you taking my sister?
ZOEY/ZOZO: Away.
MEGAN: Give me back my sister! [Shouts and runs up to Zoey and hugs her.]
ZOEY/ZOZO: [Collapses to the ground]
MEGAN: [Shakes Zoey, who is lying on the ground.] Zoey, wake up! I love you!
ZOEY: [Wakes up] What happened?
MEGAN: We have a lot to talk about. Leave the board and candles. Let's go home. Mom said she was making Shawarma tonight.
[Both walk away, leaving the Ouija board and candles behind.]
