THE JUMP SCARED BY JEFFREY LO (DOWNLOAD PDF HERE)

A hallway with two doors and stairs the lead downstairs.

JEFFREY stands around the corner by one of the doors.

Hiding.

Waiting.

Quiet.

Silence.

Time passes.

JEFFREY things he hears something and jumps up.

But it’s nothing.

JEFFREY is back to position.

Waiting…

Waiting…

Waiting…

JEFFREY thinks he hears the door opens and jump up.

JEFFREY: RAAAAAWWWWR!!!!!

Again, it’s nothing.

JEFFREY looks around, embarrassed, making sure no one saw that.

JEFFREY gets back in position.

Hiding.

Waiting.

Quiet.

Silence.

As time passes, JEFFREY loses focus.

Unbeknownst to JEFFREY, JENNIFER walks up the stairs.

She sees JEFFREY crouched over, weirdly.

JEFFREY does not see JENNIFER.

Pause.

JENNIFER: What are you doing – ?

JEFFREY jumps and shreaks, startled.

JEFFREY: MOTHER FU –

Blackout.

END OF PLAY.
