Hello there, Story Club members.

I'm Ivy, your ghostly host with the most and keeper of the strangest,

spookiest tales on earth.

Today is another Ivy's chilling tale.

This cautionary tale story club members might make you heed the signs. It's one I call

Keep Off the Grass. Lourna wanted to go for a walk in the sunshine. It was a beautiful summer

day with robins and sparrow singing, and a warm, gentle breeze swaying the green leaves of the

trees. It was the green leaves of the trees.

It was the first week of summer vacation, and she'd spent it so far inside playing video games.

She was tired of being inside.

The outdoors were calling her.

There was something in those clear blue skies that she just couldn't deny.

Colton, would you put the game on pause already?

No way, Lorna, I'm at the best level.

But you're wasting a gorgeous day.

You know how long it took me to get here.

I know, but we have the whole summer, Lorna.

There will be lots of beautiful days.

Just indulge me, Colton.

20 minutes, okay?

Then we'll get a snack and come back inside.

Fine, but you owe me big time.
