The Ghost of Midnight

Scene:
Four or five Cub Scouts “camping out” (laying on the floor next to each other). The ghost
approaches the first Scout.

GHOST:
(in an eerie voice) I am the Ghost of Midnight!

(Scared, the Scout jumps up, screams, and runs away. The ghost goes up to the next Cub Scout.)

GHOST:
(in an eerie voice) I am the Ghost of Midnight!

(The next Cub Scout jumps up screaming and runs away.

Repeat until there is only one Cub Scout left. The ghost comes up to the last Cub Scout.)

GHOST:
(in an eerie voice) I am the Ghost of Midnight!

(The last Cub Scout sits up, looks at his watch)

LAST Scout:
Go away! It’s only 11:45!
