The Phone Goes Dead

Linda James dies in Hyde Park when a flash of lighting hit her and she throws her phone and it hit the ground. We will never find out any thing else about her, but the phone, that’s a different story. An old man was walking and saw the phone and he changed the Sim-card to a new one. He sold the phone to a man that was called Mark Adams. Mark bought the phone for his son, David who was sixteen. One day, the phone rings. It was an old man that was speaking and David answered. He did not know that man; all he knew about him was his name, which was Eric Saunders. He decided to ask her mother if she ever herd of someone named like that. She said that that man once used to be her friend’s husband, but he died six weeks ago because of lung cancer.

The mane character was a bit foolish because he was at first scared to tell his mom about that man that phoned him, but I think that he made the right chose to tell her about it. I liked that the story changed really quickly like in the beginning and I like those kind of stories because they don’t talk all the time about that same thing so they don’t get boring. For example, the story was first talking about a woman that was called Linda James and it suddenly changed to a whole different story talking about a boy called David and a phone.

The second thing that I liked for example was that the story had some suspense. I really like stories that have suspense because they are not boring like stories that are predictable. For example, when the old man phoned to David, it was almost unpredictable to guess that the man was actually dead.

I would recommend this story to somebody that’s around 11 and that likes scary stories. I wouldn’t recommend this story to somebody that’s younger than 11 because that story might be a bit confusing especially in the beginning when the story kind of switches around. I wouldn’t recommend his story to somebody that doesn’t like scary stories because that person might have nightmares about it.
