NAME:

Mr. Ptero's basement

Mr. Ptero needs to put some goods from his variety store in the basement. He opens the creaking door and turns on the light switch. Nothing happens.
'The light must have burned out,' he mutters. – Hmm… Well, it's going to be in the dark, really! - he decides.
Trrr! Trrr!
- What is it? - he asks.
– Trrr! Trrr!
- Again! What can it be? – Mr. Ptero asks himself, slowly descending the steps.

Trrr! Trrr!
Suddenly, he hears a muffled sound and is paralyzed with fear. Something brushes his head.
– Whoa! - he screams. Then he runs up the steps and slams the door, startled. He is now safe in his store.
– What's going on, Mr. Ptero? – the sheep Babi asks. She looks worriedly at Mr. Ptero.
– There's something in my basement! - He exclaims, panting. – Could it be a ghost?
– I don't think so – Babi replies bravely. – Tomorrow I'll be back with my flashlight.
