Barry wanted to explore the abandoned castle in his village. So, one day, he sneaked into it without telling anyone. As he entered the castle, he found himself in a huge hall. Crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling and numerous steps led to an upper gallery. In the corner, stood a huge rectangular table laden with all kinds of fruit, vegetables and meat dishes. “Eat what you want,” said a booming voice from above. Barry looked up and saw a woman in flowing white robes standing near by. Her eyes sparkled evilly and her silvery grey hair reached her waist. “Let me serve you,” said the woman. She stretched out her hands without moving. Her arms grew longer, longer and longer till they reached the table. Ugly, scary leprechauns, carrying trays of more food, floated into the air and said, “First you eat this, and then we eat you!” Barry was terrified. He bolted out of the door and ran straight home.
