It was a dark gloomy night in 1899, at a glorious and voluminous estate run by a plantation owner named Herbert Worthington, who had a very evil and dark past. Herbert had many slaves, and he was cruel to all of them. One night, he was doing his normal business, when one of his slaves came in without permission. Because of this disobedience, Herbert became so frenzied that he beat the slave to death, but what he didn’t know was that the slave he so cruelly killed, transformed into a evil, horrendous demon called Beldor. It was the first night at their new home. Zachary, his sister Kelly, his mother and his father just moved from West Virginia to their new home in New Orleans. It is a voluminous estate, with a large rather decrepit house at …show more content…
the top of a hill. “After a long day, I can’t wait to get out of the car away from you Kelly,” Said Zachary.
“Shut Up! I Feel the same exact about you!” Said Kelly. “Stop Fighting,” said mom, “We have a big night tonight and we need to get everything ready before we get to bed.” It is about 10 o'clock hen they finally get to the house, and they see that all of their stuff is already there and mostly unpacked. Their stuff had arrived the week before, and they have come every day to unpack it, and because of this all of their beds were ready for tonight. When they finally get inside all of them go to their bed rooms, get ready for bed, and go to sleep. Crash! Scrape! Ahh! It is about 3 o’clock in the morning. Zachary suddenly wakes up. He knows something is wrong. He goes in his sisters room to see if she is there, and he wakes her up. “Kelly, wake up!” said …show more content…
Zachary. “What is it Zach,” said Kelly. “I think something is happening“ said Zachary. “Come help me.“ “Fine,“ said Kelly. Kelly get out of bed and they walk out of her room. Next they walk over to their parents room to check on them. They walk in, but their not there. They both start to freak out. “Where are they!“ said Kelly. “I don’t know,“ said Zachary, “But I think we should go look around to dee if we can find them.” “I agree,“ said Kelly. They walk out of their parent’s room into the hallway. They head towards some of the other rooms, but suddenly they hear footsteps downstairs. “Let’s go check it out,“ Zachary said hesitantly. Kelly didn’t say anything, so they started towards the kitchen. When they got there,they saw no one around, so they started to see if they could find any clues that could lead to where their parents are. They start looking around to see if they could find anything, and suddenly Zachary finds a small book with nothing written on top. “I found something,“ Zachary says. “Let me see it,“ said Kelly. “How about we both read it together,“ said Zachary. “Ok,” Kelly says. They start to read the book. The book talks about many simple, not unnormal things, until they start reading about Herbert Worthington. They read about his life his family, and then about his slaves. They learn that he was very cruel to his slaves, and he even killed on. They read on. The next section talked about the killed slave, and because of the way the slave was killed, it became a demon named Beldor. On the last page of the book, it says the one way to rid of Beldor, and set his spirit free. The only way to do this is to standing in front of him, look him in the eyes and yell the word “Exfendrapu,” and his spirit will be set free. As soon as he read those words, he hear a scream in the basement. Turning pale he froze in horror, because he knew exactly who those screams were coming from. “We need to go find them then help them,“ said Kelly, “Do you remember the word Zachary?” “I do,“ said Zachary, “Let’s go.” They go to the basement door and they start to go down.
They start to hear footsteps behind them and suddenly the door slams shut. They must go on. When they get to the bottom of the stairs, they turn on the light and they see a ghastly sight. “Oh my god, “ they both say. Both of their parents are bound up tightly on the floor, cowering in fear. Zachary and Kelly look up a little bit and see a tall dark, almost shadow like figure. Beldor. “Why are you doing this to our parents,” said Zachary, “ We never did anything wrong to you.” “I am here to get revenge on the people who so cruelly killed me,” said Beldor. “ I will not allow this to happen,” Zachary says. Zachary, suddenly feeling bold and courageous, starts to walk up to Beldor. It’s like all of his fears have washed away. As soon as he gets to Beldor, he looks him in the eyes and yells at the top of his lungs, ‘Exfendrapu,” and Beldor just disintegrates into dust. Kelly and Zachary run to their parents and they start untying them. Once they get out they all start hugging each other, grateful that they saved each
other. “I can’t believed you saved us there,” said dad, “I thought we were goners.” “I just wanted to help,” said Zachary. “Me too,” said Kelly. By this time the sun was starting to come up and everyone was glad because they knew that the wrath of Beldor was finally gone and they could go on living their lives, happily ever after, or so you would think.
Growing up as a happy and popular young man, Zack creates himself a perfect reputation which left room for love and smothering from his mother and two sisters. His mother and sisters love him very much and show this love by being at his every beckoning. Winifred is no exception; the love for Zack is shown by the extraction, “How be you wash my bike for me, Pose, Love?” I would be halfway to the kitchen for bucket and rags before he stopped speaking. [And] I was Zachary’s willing slave. Slavery in fact, was a vogue in our house.”(Wilson,101). Zack from a very young age is overwhelmed with love and good deeds sent in his direction. He takes advantage of these kind gestures and never really appreciates what was being done for him. This lack of appreciation and constant smothering is noticed by his father at later stages in the story and creates a level of confliction between them throughout the story. His father makes the mistake of not saying anything about his disagreement with the way Zack is treated and allows the conflict to continue. “Even Dad took a long time to wake up. You wouldn’t think a fourteen – or sixteen-year-old-boy could hoodwink a father… [And] Dad would just leave the room and go out to his work shed and sit and rock and rock in that old chair of his.” (Wilson,103). His father new there was a problem but did not act on it until the situation reached its climax which resulted in Zack leaving home. The problem is allowed to escalate at the time. The father does not play as big of a role in Zack’s life. Due to mothers love for Zack she allows him to get away with a lot of things that most mothers would not. One day she baked a cake for the church bazaar and left a sign warning nobody to eat it. She came home to find a slice gone and realised it was Zack that took the slice.
"The house is 10 feet by 10 feet, and it is built completely of corrugated paper. The roof is peaked, the walls are tacked to a wooden frame. The dirt floor is swept clean, and along the irrigation ditch or in the muddy river...." " ...and the family possesses three old quilts and soggy, lumpy mattress. With the first rain the carefully built house will slop down into a brown, pulpy mush." (27-28)
They left by the sunrise and managed to make it far from their houses. All went fine until Jake suddenly screamed… He had fell from a steep and hurt his ankle.
Usually, their home is silent, but when one day the narrator suddenly hears something inside another part of the house, the siblings escape to a smaller section, locked behind a solid oak door. In the intervening days, they become frightened and solemn; on the one hand noting that there is less housecleaning, but regretting that the interlopers have prevented them from retrieving many of their personal belongings. All the while, they can occasionally hear noises from the other
