Another story was when a kid was just walking from school and a man asked the little kid that theres going to be a crash at seven a clock, but I cant tell you the end of the story because you have to rent the book a must read book to creep you out a little but will shock you out in the end of the stories . So I say this is a must read book for me. By: David Leyva
