Masha's Spooky Stories

All children are afraid of the dark. Masha was afraid of it too and had to sit with a torch all night long! But once upon a time she came up with the tale about a tiny bug, which lived in the woods and was so afraid of the dark, that every rustle made its heart tremble! The bug suffered a lot until he realized that all tiny things you see in the dark just seem to be frightful and fear makes no sense at all!

One boy was so afraid of the water that he stopped washing himself and turned into a piggy! All his buddies ran away from him scared! But in the end he overcame his fear and began to wash his face and hands as he realized that the water can be safe and fun! The boy was very brave and even won a swimming competition!

Are you afraid of monsters? Sure you are! Let me tell you a scary story about a boy who experienced a real fear… This story happened on an abandoned tractor factory. The boy lost a scoop from his toy-tractor and decided to look for it at the factory. So he goes up the stairs and sees a large female monster, who was about to paint her lips with a roller! As he kept walking he noticed more monsters playing domino!

Like all the other children Masha was afraid of being lost until she heard a story about a kitten. He was just a kitten, but with one particular feature- he couldn’t survive outside without being lost. So once upon a time he chased a ball of yarn, onto the street, and was so busy playing, he didn’t notice that he got lost! He was terrified by strange environment and couldn’t find his way home! Poor kitten could not have stayed on the street if he hadn’t met a carrier pigeon who found his lovely owner. Masha concludes this story by telling us: “If you get lost - don’t panic! Remember your address or phone number and don’t be shy to call adults for help!”

What do you think is the scariest holiday? What makes children scared the most? Well, of course, it's... New Year’s Eve! Crowds of adults visit you and ask to read poems out loud! Your thoughts are confused, the words get lost and poor children are unable to speak a word! The same story happened with one little girl who was so afraid of the guests and Santa Claus that even a chair started to shake under her legs!

Some people happen to believe in all sorts of omens like black cats, wearing clothes inside out, prophetic dreams... Poor girl Lucy believed in that kind of stuff so much that was even afraid to go outside to play with her friends.
