Through the fence dan and james tell him the house is haunted, but steve knows its not so he enters the house anyway. Steve comes out with the ball and shouts through the fence to dan and james " ha i got it u silly buggers" dan and james look up to see steve stood in the doorway when a shadowed face appears behind him, they shout a warning but its too late, the figure grabs him and pulls him back into the house, a few seconds later the ball rolls out of the house splattered in blood.
