Ghost Hotel by Tasmin

Ali stood silently looking at the door. With a slow creaking sound, it opened. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and and stepped inside ... She found herself in a big hotel! People were chatting and sounded gloomy! It was misty and suddenly a man walked straight through her. "They are ghosts!" she whispered to herself but just then a tall, thin man with a black suit; tall hat and furry mustache interrupted her
"Yes we are Ali - and I'm your great great great great great grand-father " He gasped
"Um..." she blubbered shedding a tear.
"I own this hotel and the year is 1921" he replied ! He was a fairly old man about mid 50's who stuttered when he talked and he had a walking stick!
Ali fainted with the atmosphere and also because she was always pathetic with ghosts that haven't left the place they died.
She woke up to find that she had been put in a bed! It was rock solid with a night-stand (that had a candle on top) next to the wripped curtains. Ali curled up into the corner and stayed there the whole night . She thought of how every night her parents would read a story to her and kissed her goodnight, but today was different! She didnt know what the next day would bring her...
