She had already been widely unimpressed with Diagon Alley this summer. Honestly, who thought shopping was a fun time? And Hogsmeade was apparently nothing different. The fourth year Hufflepuff wandered down the street until she got just past the main shopping area, looking for anything remotely interesting. Slowing her steps, she focused on the dilapidated old building beyond the fence.

"Ooh, what's that? A haunted house?" she mused aloud to no one in particular. It certainly looked like one and maybe she should venture a little closer to find out.

Kye had to take it easy on the candy... well, the carrying part anyway. She decided to take a break from wandering Hogsmeade stores for their candy stash, picked a spot, adjusted her costume, and took a seat on a bench near the Shrieking Shack. What else could complete the Halloween feel?!

Kye pulled out a Fizzing Whizbee, and enjoyed it while looking at the ridiculously old house(?).

She wondered if anyone ever lived there, or if it was once a shop too. She recalled the rumors she had heard over the years, both from classmates and from family. She always wanted to try to figure out how to find the knot to get past the Whomping Willow and venture out.

It was around then that the sixth year noticed a younger girl walk up and look at the house. Simply because there was nothing else in the immediate vicinity, she watched the girl and heard her say something... If she had heard correctly, it sounded like the girl didn't know much about the shack.

"It's called the Shrieking Shack!" Kye called out in response. Happy to have someone a little closer to her age around, Kye got up and practically pranced over to the girl.

"It's literally been sitting here empty and possibly haunted for well over a hundred years... Care for a Whizbee?"
