In Chapter 1, Scout, Jem, and Dill are fascinated by the Radley house. When you were a child, was there a neighbor, family member, or place that scared you? Describe that person/place as you remember them and think about how your experience parallels the children in the novel.

My uncle Dahle. He always wanted to talk and stuff but he was missing most of his teeth and the teeth that remained were stained yellow. He also wore dirty clothes and smelt like oil. He was my uncle so I had to talk to him but I only would say hi and me my cousin agreed he was creepy.

When I was younger I would ride bikes with my sister. We would ride them up and down the streets and would ride in the neighbors driveways. Whenever we went in there driveway they would yell at us.

When I was little I didn’t get scared about places or people. I can’t think of any place that scared me that I could describe. No one really scared me because I thought everyone was my friend.

My old neighbor here in Salmon had a creepy barn next to his house that scared me for a long time. I finally got to go inside and it wasn’t that bad after all.

When I was little everyone thought my basement was haunted. It was cold and dark. I was scared of it and didn’t want to go near it.

My basement was like this and it would flood a lot.

When I was a kid I lived in Las Vegas and overall it was very scary. There were shootings in my neighborhood so yeah I was scared of my neighborhood. They don’t really have a reason to be scared, I was scared of getting shot up walking to school.
Emma Dahle

Las Vegas scares me now that I know where it’s at and what happens.
Faith

I was scared of my neighbors house because there was a story that the old lady that lived there would give out candy with super glue in it on Halloween.
Chayla

That sounds like a scary story to hear as a kid
Sammy H.

I was always scared of the downstairs of my house. When someone is walking around upstairs it creaks and the sounds used to scare me. I always tried to find an excuse not to go down there.

When I was around the age of 10, we lived by an old Russian couple. They were around the age of 60. They adopted a little Russian girl that was 6. They were really creepy. I came to find out that they they got charged with murder. The little girl ended up going back to Russia.

When I was young there was a guy who lived on my street and he was definitely a little weird. He painted his house a different neon color almost every year and when my sister and I would wait in the car for my mom to take us somewhere he would walk by and look at us through the windows. It’s is similar to the novel because we were kind of scared to go by his house and everyone in the neighborhood was afraid of him.
Avery

Looking through people’s car is very creepy.

My neighbor. He was really scary and always tried to talk to me and my brother. He was a drug dealer so my mom always told me to stay away from him.
Chayla
3/6/2019 01:18:13 pm
How did you know he was a drug dealer?
Faith

He tried to sell my dad some drugs

I lived in a pretty big neighborhood and played in basically everyone’s yards whether they wanted me to or not. I had a couple neighbors that we would try to be more stealthy when going through their yards

When I was young my dad told me about this guy who lived on this hill. I also hated walking by his property, just like the kids in the book.

My uncle Dave used to tell my brother and I that whatever he was drinking (different alcoholic drinks) were to keep him young which made my brother and I think he was evil. This relates to the characters because they don’t know the real story of the Radley place so they’re scaring themselves.
Ariana

Getting taken away from my mom, and going through the sprinkled trauma throughout my childhood, ya know dyin’, gettin abducted and all that Jazz I was soon to be cautious of all things on the street. Nobody should fear anything though, especially not the unknown, because if you worry and worry and you say frequently that you’re scared, the panic fear will be attracted to you, just choose the karma you want drawn to you.

I was scared to go past this plant selling place in the trees behind my house. When we would ride bikes back there I would always be scared what was inside.

When I was a kid I was scared to go to the “woods” by myself. It was a big field right behind my house that we have tree houses in and it was so much fun but you would have to gross a creek to get there and I was scared to cross it by myself because my mom would always tell me to be careful. But are I got older I got use to it.
Brooke

When I was a young innocent child I had a neighbor with an old beat up house that was very scare. We use to ride our bikes past it and try to see if there was anyone in the house. This is very similar to the experience that the children had in the book, although I never was man enough to go and touch the house.
Treygan

When I was little I was scared of my friends attic. They told me they had a ghost and I didn’t like that. It was dark and cold that made it worse.
Miriam

Attics can be kind of sketchy

When I was little I was always scared of the neighbors house at the end of our road. Anytime we got close to this house, the mans dogs would all start barking and try to get out of the fence. I would always try to walk as far away from the house as I could trying not to make the dogs bark.

When I lived in Firth there was a really old bridge that was cracked and falling apart but my sister and I would always cross it as fast as we could to get to the other field to play. Leave a Reply. |
