I really liked the story, actually.

Urban legends turning out to be true, the mysterious demise of a childhood friend, and the main character never being able to prove that it actually happened. These elements are in and of themselves cliché, but not because they're bad, and it's very possible to spin a good fable with them, which I think you've succeeded in.

I get a sense of nostalgia from reading it, too. It takes me back to when I would watch Goosebumps. The stories on that show weren't gory or mind-blowingly horrific, but they served to unnerve. I think your story is like that, as well.
