Lesson overview:

In this ESL lesson, students listen to real horror stories: a podcast where people describe eerie experiences they lived through. Then they write a scary story of their own, using the past perfect to put events in order.

By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:

  • follow real-life stories in a podcast and discuss them
  • choose between the past simple and past perfect
  • use both tenses to tell events in the right order
  • write their own ghost story

Like Horror and Real-Life Vampires?, it works in any month, not only in October.
