[/ooc]The Carroll HouseMiriam discovers that the diary belongs to someone named Miriam Wallace, a girl about 10 or 11 years old judging by the entries.  Skimming through, Miriam finds that this other Miriam's life was full of heartache - her father died when she was young, just after his grandmother had come to live with them.  Nana, as Miriam refers to her, was suffering from dementia and Miriam secretly hated her, especially when she had to help the older woman bathe because her mother was out.  Later entries describe how Miriam wanted desperately to escape into a fantasy world and her writing gets jumbled in places, mixing fantasy and reality, referring to her great-grandmother as the "Old Hag who eats children."The final entry talks about the closet under the stairs being locked all the time and her mother having left it unlocked, which was peculiar.  Meanwhile...When Bella puts the birthday card back in the box, she finds an old-fashioned skeleton stuck under one of the bottom cardboard flaps of the box.  The key has a loop at the end with a simple black string necklace laced through it.  Outside...The two boys shrug at Brad's question, "The girl who lived her disappeared and her mom hung herself.  But they ain't the ones haunting the place."  The other boy chimes in, "Yeah, its the old grandma.  Nasty old lady.  My cousin said she killed the little girl.  And she's still there, just waiting to kill any kid who goes in the house."Lotsa BurgersMark and the belligerent man tumble to the ground.  The man's face distorts again, returning to normal, and he shrieks in pain, "Help!  Help!  I'm being assaulted!"Simon, meanwhile, runs outside and, for a blink of the eye, is in a forest, with a dozen beady eyed goblin-like creatures looking at him.  But, they are gone just as quickly and he's in the parking lot again, where he should be.  The tranquilizer gun isn't where it should be, however.  In its place is what looks like a medieval crossbow.</blockquote>
