Once in a small town of Georgia there
was and old man who had no legs. He
had really long fingernails,though. He
used them to move around. He was
also a killer. He went around killing
people with his long,long nails.
Because of this,people were warned to
close and lock all their doors and
windows at 6:00 until he was caught.
One day,a girl asked her mom if she
could go play at her friends house. The
mom looked at the clock. It was 5:30
pm.
The mom told the girl to be home by
6:00 because that was when the "click
click" man came out. The girl agreed
and was on her way. She played but
lost track of time. Her friend's mom
told her to be careful on her way home
and get there as fast as she could. She
offered to walk her home but she said
it was fine and then left. The girl
looked her watch. The time was 5:52.
She observed people calling in their
children and locking their doors.
"Shoot,I'd better run." she thought.
Finally she reached her street. But then
she heard a strange noise. Click-clack
click-clack drag. She turned around. It
was him! She ran until finally she
reached her house ran to the door and
pounded on it but the girl's mom had
fallen asleep and the door was locked
and the curtains were closed. the click-
clack sound got louder. She kept
pounding on the door,but no answer.
The pounding stopped. Upon
waking,and forgetting that her daughter
had gone out the previous night,she
went out to get her news paper. When
she got outside,she screamed at the
sight. Written in the doorstep in blood
was "Mom,why didn't you open the
door?" The girl was never seen again.
