|
People-chomping zombies! Run!
|
|
But first it's always more important to shoot video and post it!
|
|
Ugh! This is what I'm talking about! People screaming, zombies slow-walking, biting, blood spraying everywhere — BOR-ING!
|
|
A weird mind like mine could never be frightened by such banal grotesqueries.
|
|
Yes. So prosaic! Now go over there and flash your big brain.
|
|
You has-beens are just jealous because everyone loves zombies, and no one reads your dusty old "books" unless a teacher forces them to!
|
|
Now you've gone too far, vile creatures!
|
|
Indeed! Quoth the Raven: Eat my shorts!
|
|
Hey! That "quoth" is from the Bartman!
|

The zombies are vanquished, and Halloween is near complete. I declare myself the victor!
|
|
|
By what right?
|
|
I ingeniously summoned Mopey Mary.
|
|
|
She didn't scare anyone!
|
|
True. My whole "crawling out of the TV" bit is pretty much all I've got.
|
|
Fine! You have one final shot, Lovecraft. What have you got?
|
|
Only my most twisted creation yet!
|
|
Twisted creation? As in pretzels! Yum!

Zombie Billboard Bundle

|
|
I know you can do it, Mr. Lovecraft! Bring the true meaning of dread back to Springfield.
|
|
|
Lisa, how could you?! I thought you were Team Poe.
|
|
I'm Team Whoever can deliver true horror that isn't just gore and cheap thrills.
|
|
Plus, curved surfaces kind of scare me, too.
|
|
Worry not, fellow non-Euclidean devotee. Prepare for horror beyond imagining! I'll need a reanimator. Gently used if new is not available.
|
|
There's not anything like that in Springfield.
|
|
Sure there is. Mad Doctor Itchy has one at his castle on the edge of town.
|
|
Excellent! But first we need to make a brief stop at the abandoned lighthouse.
|
|
|
What for? The only person who currently lives there is...Sideshow Bob!

|
|
Exactly.

*knock knock knock*
|
|
What is this? I was nearly napping, when suddenly there comes a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at the lighthouse door.
|
|
|
Finally! Someone with some culture.
|
|
|
Moribund and monotonous!
|
|
Edgar Allan Poe! And H.P. Lovecraft!
|
|
|
You're probably wondering why I'm here, and why I have this chloroform, gag, and length of rope.
|
|
I recognize a kidnapping when I see one.
|
|
He has some experience in the field.

Pardon us for dropping in unannounced on All Hallow's Eve, Doctor Itchy.
|
|
You can call me "Mad".
|
|
|
I have a friendly wager with Mr. Poe as to who can create the greatest horror. I've something in mind that will chill you to the very marrow.
|
|
If there's marrow involved, count me in!

*yawn* Okay, that's enough excitement for one night. I'm hitting the sack. By which I mean my trick-or-treat sack. Then I'm going to bed.
|
|
Me, too. See everyone next Halloween.
|
|
Wait, what? Aren't you terrified of me anymore?
|
|
Sorry, chicken dude. We've been overrun by so much weird stuff that nothing freaks us out for very long.
