The Shadow Man (Aka the Story of Freddy Krueger)

*THIS IS NOT MY STORY, BUT IT IS A STORY I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW! There was a man working at our school. No one knew he was. The teachers kept a close eye on him while he worked outside around the school property. Two weeks into the school year, an 8-year-old girl came up to the man and said, "What is your name sir?" The man smiled at the little girl and said, "Freddy." "Would you like to play hide and seek with us", the girl asked. Freddy bowed his head and covered his eyes, "Thirty...twenty-nine..." The little girl's face light up with excitement, and she went and got her friends, and they hid around the school. "...Three...two...one...ready or not. Here I come" Freddy looked around the school saying, "One...two...Freddy's comin for you..." Freddy was unsuccessful in finding the children. So, he went down to the cellar where he lived and saw a little girl hiding under the table. "There ya are", said Freddy. The girl sprung up from the table with excitement. "That was fun", the girl said. "Do you know any other games we could play?" Freddy thought for a second, "Well, if you can keep a secret, I'll take you to a place that no one else knows of." The girl vowed to keep it a secret. Hours passed, and the little girl returned home from school. She ran to her parents, crying. "What's wrong?" her mother asked. "There's this man at school. He took me to his cave, and did something terrible." The mother and fathers faces burned with anger. "What did he do to you?" the father demanded. The girl turned around, lifted up her shirt, and there were four giant cuts, like from a bear claw, going across her back. Hours passed, and a group of parents got together to confront Freddy. Freddy saw them coming, and ran to an old abandoned mill. Freddy ran inside, with the parents running after him with bats and knives. He locked the door, and the parents filled bottles with gasoline, light them on fire, and threw them in the window. Freddy was burned to death, and the parents kept that terrible act their secret.
