Zombie attack

Scary story contest entry

Cutting through the graveyard on the way home after a school dance, I thought I felt something grab my leg. Suddenly another hand poked out. Then a leg and another! Finally, I found out what had grabbed me. A ZOMBIE!!!! It had beady red eyes, skin as slimy as fish, his skin was as green as 20 gallons of slime and his whole body was as cold as Antarctica in a deep freeze. Then he said, “Puny human! I shall pull you down to the devil. YOU’LL DIE!!” And so he did. But as he did, I took a machine gun down with me so I could blast his head off and get free. So I did it. When I got home, a ghost was waiting for me. And I said, “Oh NO! Here we go AGAIN!”
