7 Haunting!

HUNTING! 7 It was Thursday morning. Sam, Lucy, and Antonio were sitting in Ms. Grinker's class. The loudspeaker crackled. It was Principal Winik. "This is a very important announcement about tomorrow's Eerie Day celebration. The haunted house was going to be held at Jasper Eerie's mansion, but there has been a change of plans."

狩猎!那是星期四的早晨。 萨姆、露西和安东尼奥坐在她的房间里。 Grinker的类。扩音器噼啪作响。 是温尼克校长打来的。“这是关于明天怪诞日庆祝活动的一个非常重要的通知。 鬼屋本来是要在贾斯帕·怪异的豪宅里举行的，但是计划有变。”

Sam glanced at Lucy and Antonio. Jasper Eerie was the great-great-grandson of Orson Eerie. He lived in Orson Eerie's old house. He had been a substitute teacher at Eerie Elementary, and helped the hall monitors more than once...

萨姆瞥了露西和安东尼奥一眼。 Jasper Eerie是Orson Eerie的曾曾孙。 他住在奥森·怪诞的老房子里。 他曾在怪诞小学当过代课老师，并不止一次帮助过大厅管理员……

Principal Winik continued, "The haunted house will now be held here... inside Eerie Elementary!" Students erupted with excitement! But the hall monitors knew what this meant. Sam whispered, "No question. Orson Eerie's biggest attack ever will be tomorrow night." "And we'll defeat him," Lucy said. "Once and for all." "He is so weak— this should be EASY!" Antonio said, grinning. "All we need now is a plan," Sam added. The rest of the day was a blur. Lessons were canceled so that students could decorate the haunted school.

温尼克校长接着说：“鬼屋现在将在这里举行…… 在怪诞小学里！”学生们兴奋地爆发了！但大厅的监控器知道这意味着什么。 山姆低声说：“没问题。 奥森·怪诞史上最大的袭击将在明晚发生。” “我们会打败他的。”露茜说。 “一劳永逸。”“他太弱了——这应该很容易！”安东尼奥笑着说。 “我们现在需要的只是一个计划，”山姆补充道。 那天剩下的时间都是一片模糊。 课程被取消了，以便学生们可以装饰闹鬼的学校。

When the final bell rang, Sam had an idea. "Let's go talk to Jasper Eerie," he said to Antonio and Lucy. "Maybe he's not hosting the haunted house because he discovered something about Orson Eerie! Maybe he found a weakness we can use!" "Good thinking," Lucy said. The hall monitors headed across town. Eerie Day banners hung from lampposts. Posters were plastered on mailboxes.

当最后的铃声响起时，萨姆有了一个主意。 “我们去和贾斯帕·怪异谈谈吧。”他对安东尼奥和露茜说。 “也许他不是闹鬼屋的主人，因为他发现了奥森·怪诞的一些事情！也许他找到了我们可以利用的弱点！”“好主意。”露茜说。 大厅的监控人员穿过城镇。 灯柱上挂着怪异的横幅。 邮筒上贴着海报。

Finally, they reached Jasper Eerie's house. It looked creepier than usual. The windows drooped like sad, spooky eyes. The house's splintered wooden body seemed tired.

最后，他们来到了贾斯帕·怪诞的家。 它看起来比平时更令人毛骨悚然。 窗户耷拉着，像一双悲伤的、幽灵般的眼睛。 那座房子残破的木质躯体似乎已经疲惫不堪。

"Geez. Jasper wouldn't even need to add decorations to make this house look haunted," Antonio said. Sam said, "Well, let's hope Jasper knows something that can help us battle our monstrous school—" "Which is about to be a haunted house!" Lucy interrupted. Sam, Lucy, and Antonio walked up the front steps. Sam started to knock on the door when Jasper Eerie flung it open and exclaimed, "I saw Orson last night!"

“天啊。贾斯珀甚至不需要添加装饰来让房子看起来闹鬼，”安东尼奥说。 山姆说：“好吧，希望贾斯帕知道些什么，能帮助我们打败这个怪物学校——”“这所学校马上就要变成鬼屋了！”露西打断。 萨姆、露西和安东尼奥走上前门的台阶。 山姆正要敲门，这时贾斯帕·怪诞把门推开，大声说：“我昨晚看见奥森了！”
