Thriller

Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y’alls neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse’s shell

Aunt Merribelle’s Scrapbook

Among the things we discovered in Aunt Merribelle’s scrapbook, was an article about a man found living in the town’s underground sewer system.

The article described this man as having a distorted skeletal structure and a severe loss of  body hair. His skin had paled from a lack of sunlight, giving him an amphibious glow. Officials were unable to discover the identity of the man, as his communication skills had disintegrated into a series of grunts and whistles, a language it seemed that he shared with his companion, sewer rats.

Why Aunties kept this article is unknown… unrequited love? Perhaps.
