                                                                        A Short Play

Scene

(The camera focuses on Jonathan Strode’s son and his friend running down the quiet street of Alpine. They come across the abandoned Banjo house)

Tommy Strode- (staring at the house) what are we doing here are parents told us not to be around here.

Charlie Macomb- (with attitude) I just want to see this place before we go over your house. 

Tommy Strode-(Tommy turns around towards Charlie) but Charlie were going to get in trouble besides do you know who lives there?

Charlie Macomb-(ignored) who?

Tommy Strode- (shaking Charlie’s shoulders) The Boogeyman! 

Charlie Macomb- (pushes away Tommy) geez you’re a real pain! There’s no such thing.

Tommy Strode-(high pitched) it’s true. My daddy’s moms meet the Boogeyman once! With her two eyes

!

Charlie Macomb- (in sing song) ah baloney! There’s no Boogeyman and I’ll prove it.

(Charlie steps forward to the steps)

Tommy Strode- What are you doing?!

Charlie Macomb-(turning around) I’m going to prove to you that there is no Boogeyman so that you can stop whining like a little baby.

Tommy Strode-(waving his hands yelling) NO! NO DON’T DO THE BOOGEYMAN WILL GET YOU!!

(As Tommy says this he walks toward up the stairs and toward the door)

Charlie Macomb-(teasing and yelling) hey Tommy! Look! (Changes into creepy voice) I’M THE BOOGEYMAN!!! (Growls and roars) 

Tommy Strode- (worried) please get down from there! Please!

(Charlie walks down the stairs and goes toward Tommy)

Charlie Macomb- see there’s no Boogeyman

(They walk away from the house. The camera focuses on a shadowy figure at the houses window then walks away)
