a short scary story I made up for my kids "unfinished&q

this is unfinished but I just wanted to get some quick reviews of my writing style. so be gentle! sorry about the speeling if there are any errors.



I used to see this little girl that would play over there by the creek from time to time.
I was usually on my way in from deer huntin when I saw her.around dusk or later I would say.
she never looked up at me or spoke but she knew I was there cause when I walked by her she would turn never letting me get directly behind her.now that I think about it it was kinda wierd the way she turned I couldnt really see her shuffle around she kinda just turned without really movin at all.so I never really saw her face or tried to speak to her for that matter! call me what you want but there was somethin different about that little girl.when I would see her I would ask grandpa about her when I would get back to the house he would just say its probably one of the neighbor kids just playin in the creek you know how kids like the creek!and when he said that, just then, I got a chill.it ran right up my spine and seem to stand straight up on the top of my head!kinda like there was someone watchin or listening!
he was right kids did like to play in the creek!even me and all my cousins played in the creek when we were little.
I asked around about the little girl to see if I could figure out where she lived and who her mom and dad was.everybody I asked said they didnt know of any little girl in the area that looked like that or was that age.so I just figured it was somebody's kin that visited around christmas time or something and tried to forget about it!"tried"is alot harder than it sounds.I started to dream about her and what she looked like if she looked at me.would she look like a zombie in a horror movie or a vampire looking monster that wanted to suck my blood?I always woke up from sleep before she looked directly at me.
well the months rolled by and it got colder and colder as winter set in heavy.I always like it when winter sets in heavy it usually makes for good deer hunting.I havent thought about the little girl for a few weeks.I think it's pretty much outta my mind,or so I thought.I was on my way out to the woods one cold snowy morning when I saw something that I thought was a little wierd!off in the distance along a tree line there was a woman walkin through the field.thats not the odd part she was movin through the field but her legs weren't moving.she was well I will just say it "gliding" I know I know thats crazy but I am tellin you she was floating about six inches off the ground.It looked like she was yelling or calling out to someone.I listened but the wind made it hard to hear.I could barely make it out she was yelling a name.a name that sounded like she yelled it a million times.she was yelling the name diana.over and over again.the closer I got the more afraid I was.
I got within eighty yards or so then ducked behind some trees and watched and listened and waited to see if anyone answered her or came out.I was afraid to get to close cause she might see me and I didn't want that.the thought of her seeing me made me tremble.I listened for anyone around me to be makin any noise afraid that someone was sneaking up behind me I turned and looked quickly behind me but there was nothin there.I turned my attention back to the woman but she was gone.GONE,I thought oh my god, gone means I dont know where she is.for all I know she is stalkin me.I couldnt bare the thought of her stalkin me.I began to head toward the house half walking half running.trying my hardest not to look back.
