STORY STARTER

Submitted by Evelyn Allen Vale

"Two go in, and one comes out" is the start to a dark nursery rhyme that everyone in the town knows.

Write a story which features this rhyme and its tale.

2 Go In At The Carnival 

The town of Salem was having a carnival

We went to check it out

Many rides flew very high

feeling like you could touch the.sky!


We stopped to get some funnel cake

Told the kids

just one to take


They wanted tickets for the Haunted House

Let’s first take a picture with Minny Mouse🐭


Patiently waiting

to go inside

Finally, it came the time!

Waiting so long, on that line

Or at least it felt that way

The kids went in the Haunted house

I hope they don’t see a little mouse!!


I heard them scream, heard the laughter

Where can I go and take them after?


Wanted them to have fun today

While their parents were away!


The ride was over, but I didn’t see

Where those kids could possibly be?

I yelled and screamed and called their name

But my response was still the same

Suddenly, I began to cry

As you know, the reason why!


I yelled furiously with a shout!

Two go in, one comes out!

I asked the son, where’s your sister?

She was here,

must have missed her


Heard my heart beats in my ear

What did she disappear?


My mind was in a hither

For I am just the baby sitter!




The boss came over, said follow me

There is something, I want you to see!

Is this the child you’re looking for?

I found her near the magic door!


This town knows what it’s all about

Two go in and one comes out


Why is it this way?

Cause once you enter

You have to stay!!

One way in and no way out

Is what this ride is all about!
