Happy New Year from all of us at Meldreth Primary School! It has been a cold and grey start to term, but we’re thrilled to be back after a much-needed rest. Over the Autumn Term, Key Stage 2 children entered a spooky story contest and we’re thrilled to reveal the winning story, written by Willow W. of Year 5. Read it at your own peril! Natasha Hill, Hawk Class Teacher

The Night the Wolf Howled by Willow W

Part One

If you like stories with happy endings then this is not the story for you. This story starts in a concealed cavern with an eerie touch to it, but lurking inside was a foul unsavoury wolf, it looked like it could do no harm but if you ever went within one metre of this unsavoury creature you would be gone forever and in record time you would be forgotten by everyone close to you.

Part Two: A Full Moon

This is not just a normal night, this is the night the wolf howled. It is the only night people died on, no other night. But if you are lucky you will survive but one in a million chance you will. You think the next time it happens is going to be the same, oh no no no no no. This time the wolf is planning to do something much more sinister. This creature is planning to eat everybody. If you escape you will be hunted down even if it’s the last thing it does.

Part Three: Death, Distraction, Despair

One woman heard all this and told everyone but no one believed her. The wolf went down to the poor helpless village and one by one people were dragged out of their homes by dangling limbs and put into a pile of heads, arms, legs and blood. The streets were covered in blood. No one but Henry McMuffin killed this monstrosity with one swift swipe of his blood stained sword, but as Henry killed it he and his family were cursed for all eternity.

Part Four: The Pups

Lurking inside the concealed cavern were five wolf pups that wanted revenge.
