Four Walls 2

The boys stood outside waiting!
Who shall enter the haunted house next?
The friend had not returned,
"What shall we do?
Draw lots!
Straws were drawn once again,
Two more boys were chosen,
They had to enter the house, 
And find their friend,
Making sure to write their names,
On its four walls,
They thought that the friend,
Was either playing a trick or lost,
All kind of fear embraced them,
Why had he not returned?
Was the story about the walls? 
Entrapping people true?
Would they go missing as well?
Suggesting going for help,
Go in cowards!  
They coerced them,
Slowly walking towards the house,
Entered the broken old door,
Darkness as they looked around,
Something touched one boys head!
He jumped! It was just a cobweb,
Seeing the room ahead
Feeling for the handle, 
Taking deep breaths,
One! Two! Three!  
They entered! 
"Hello" 
Trembled voices,
Door slammed shut!!!!!!!!!
