On This Day

3rd April 2022

One day a little boy went down to a lake by himself. He saw something moving in the water so he decided to go into the water and see what it was. The water was as cold as ice, it was also very dirty as well. After a while of searching he saw it again so he went over to it. He was pulled under water from this big monster he assumed it was. “Help, Help” he screamed as loud as he could. Nobody heard him because the lake was not near anything, the lake was massive surrounded by grass and trees. Several years later the mystery is still unsolved, nobody can find the boy but they know that it was a monster…
