The plane they were flying in was shot down, making it crash into a tropical jungle which caused the boys to be where they are.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

A group of school boys were being evacuated from an ugly war in Britain. They were being evacuated by an airplane. While the plane was in air, it was shot down and it crash landed the middle of a tropical forest. According to the text, as the plane crashed, it left a 'scar' on the ground of the forest.

After they crash landed, the boys on the plane were stranded. The boys assemble after one of the boys, Ralph, uses a conch shell to call out other boys. The boys make Ralph their leader who further instructs the boys to hunt for food. Furthermore, he asks boys to make prepare a fire to signal any passing planes and ships. But the boys were more into enjoying their time without the grown ups until they let a large portion of the forest catch fire, which presumably kills a boy. Circumstances make the boys transition from innocent to savage and bloodthirsty children desperate to survive.

kow [346]

In 1840, the transcendentalist periodical <em>The Dial </em>was founded, and in that same year it published "Orphic Sayings" by Amos Bronson Alcott.

<em>The Dial </em>was a journal that supported the transcendentalists' philosophy, influenced by Immanuel Kant. Transcendentalism believes in the inherent goodness of people and nature and reinforces the idea that society is capable of corrupting the soul of an individual. Furthermore,<u> "Orphic Sayings" was one of Alcott's contribution to </u><u><em>The Dial. </em></u><em> </em>Alcott's work got favorable reviews and was considered highly valuable for its philosophy. In that way,<u> "Orphic Sayings" was famous for expressing the mystical idealism of the author</u>. The last "Orphic Sayings" was published in 1842.

Write a rough draft and a normal story about a haunted house with Spooky,creaky,scary,creepy,cursed,dark, black,loud,crackly,til
Ksju [112]

Answer:

See explanation below, please.

Explanation:

No one should have come to the Windstrom Haunted House party that year, but you know how it is. You just loved to break the rules at any and every possible opportunity. But this night was not the night for that. In fact, it was not the night for anyone, especially you.

But you put on your costume-a witch, of course- and traveled with some friends. You'd've forgotten their names by now, wouldn't you? Still, you all went together.

When you all arrived at the haunted house, the decorations seemed to pop out of a stage-like figure. Slime oozed from cracks in the walls, and monster props like the werewolves and ghosts were glowing.

You rubbed your hands together devilishly. This was your kind of haunted house. "Hey, maybe we shouldn't go in," a friend in your group said. "We-we don't have anything to defend ourselves with, in case <em>he</em> shows up."

A hearty laugh emanated from your throat. "<em>He? </em>Who's <em>he? </em>Ronald Mcdonald? Being scared of clowns is so childish. Grow up, will you?"

Your friend looked at you with pale, clear eyes. "No one should laugh in the face of Ronald Mcdonald the clown. But I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about... Peter. Do you want to hear the story?"

You and everyone else in your group sighed and said, "Okay."

But, because you pulled everyone into the haunted house, you only heard the story in increments, but this is what you got from it:

<em>A young man by the name of Rosie McSwindle lived in the town now known as Windstrom. He was quite fine and handsome, but everyone poked at him because of his name. Eventually, Rosie had had enough and went to see Yzma, the town sorcerer. He asked for a spell to change his name, but Yzma warned the man that this would change much more than that. Rosie did not care and took the potion. At first, everything seemed well. His name was now a proper man's name, and all the ladies and gents swooned over him. But soon, things started to change for the worse. He soon turned into... a woman! And now he got made fun of even more than when he was a man with a woman's name. Now, the ghost of Peter Dillums roams the Windstrom Haunted Houses, looking for those who poke fun at his misfortune.</em>

<em> </em>You laughed even more than if you hadn't of heard the story in the first place. Your friend was flabbergasted at your dismissive behavior. "W-wait! Why are you laughing? You should be terrified."

"Come on!" you laughed. "Why would you believe such a children's tale? It's Halloween! We should enjoy it."

And you did. Oh, you very much did.

(Sorry I didn't include many of the elements you listed. But this is the draft of the first part of the story. You can include whatever you want. Besides, it is <em>your </em>story.)
