🎃👻💀 ONE SENTENCE HALLOWEEN STORY 💀👻🎃

                                  🎃 🦇👻 ONE SENTENCE HALLOWEEN STORY 👻🦇🎃

Hello my Ghoulish friends...🦇

Tonight it's Halloween all over the world and it's time for another One Sentence Story.

This needs much involvement from forum members as it will become a story you tell….

The idea is, I will give you the story background, then someone follows on with another sentence/para to add to the story, and someone else, etc etc etc.

Remember my ghoulish friends, it's Halloween so it can be as frightening, gory, bloodthirsty and funny as you like 👻🦇

@Breanna @RafaC @Martin-O2 @blissgirl and any other member I may have missed.

And So IT Begins....

It was a cold gusty night just before Halloween in the town of Deathmort. Dolly Daydream was too excited to feel the cold though, she has got the part of the third witch in the Town's Am-Dram production of Macbeth.

She is a little unhappy about the witches speech because she is a vegetarian and has made a list of the animal parts:

Fillet of a fenny snake,

Eye of newt and toe of frog,

Wool of bat and tongue of dog,

Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,

Lizard's leg and owlet's wing,

Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,

Liver

Gall of goat

Nose and lips,

Finger

Tigers Chaudron

She is hoping to convince the Prop master to find other parts, which don't come from animals.

On arriving at the theatre, she is a little worried to find the place in semi- darkness but seems to be lots of flickering lights.

When she goes in, Dolly finds the whole theatre has been filled with pumpkins with candles in. She feels this is very atmospheric. She notices the other two witches on stage, Hercate and Evillene and they are talking to the prop master Michael Myers.

Before she can reach them, Dolly hears a screeching noise and sees two bats closing in on her and other bats flying around the theatre. "Don't worry Dolly" rasps Michael Myers, "They are fake bats just to get into the Halloween mood".

Dolly scrambles onstage and starts to tell Michael of her concerns about using animal parts for the cauldron.

"I think I better ask the producer if we can do anything about that Dolly". From the back of the stage appears a really evil looking man dressed as a Clown. "Hello Dolly" whispers the clown. "I'm Penny Wise…  my mother wanted a girl, however you can call me by my initials I.T" Dolly had no time to query what I.T. had to do with Penny Wise, as she needed to ask him not to use animal parts. To her surprise I.T agreed.

"Seems this is just up your street Michael" he said, " Haddonfield, where you lived before, is down on population. Oh and don't forget your mask".

Dolly gave Michael her list.

The two witches, Hercate and Evillene cackled gleefully. As Dolly was led away to get changed into her Witches costume, she happened upon 3 figures hanging from the rafters by their ankles. They were all covered in black cloaks. "What are those IT ? Dolly asked. "Oh I call them my Lost Boys' ….they have nowhere to go during the day so I let them 'hang out' here." How kind, thought Dolly. She went into the dressing room to don her witches outfit and then…..

Back inside the theatre, the dwarf, with Sparky on a lead, chased after Gary Northgate, manager of Deathmort Football Club which hadn`t won a game in ages, caught up with Gary and Sparky bit Gary`s ankel while the dwarf hit Gary round the head...

[pgn]

Anklebiters United, screamed a voice in the stalls . ..

[Cleoriff]

IT and Michel Myers looked round the theatre and said that was a good nights work. So many dead people, and weird things happening, Let's pack up and get out. We have more work to do tomorrow.

Can I come said Dolly Daydream. NO said Michael and IT, just have to pack up the Lost Boys and we are off.

Hope you enjoyed your stew. Good Night and 'bless you all'

THE END.

[Cleoriff]

Many thanks to my three musketeers. I'm off to write the story in full (with Pictures and videos)...but first I'm having a cup of tea. Well done you lot. Story will be done in 30 mins. x

Off for a lie down (not)

[Cleoriff]

How kind, thought Dolly. She went into the dressing room to don her witches outfit and then…..

Michael wandered off down a corridor when he saw the Leader of the Am Dram group - Elizabeth Hernia-Support - sitting on a bench with her back to him.

Michael called out to her "Liz! Liz!". She lept to her feet, and did a U-turn to face Michael. Michael saw she was crying and handed her a handkerchief. Wiping her eyes she said "No-one loves me". While Liz`s eyes were closed, Michael reached into his pocket and brought out a knife, with which he slashed Liz`s throat, and said "You`re right, Liz. Nobody likes you, everyone hates you". With blood gushing from her neck, Liz collapsed on the floor. Michael knelt over her and cut off Liz`s nose, slashed her lips right off, and cut off the first finger of her right hand. Grinning, Michael said to himself "That`s three things off the list - nose, lips, finger - and not an animal harmed. Dolly will be pleased" and Michael went off to find her.  ( I know this is a long sentence but I'm so excited One Sentence Story is back)

Just then the doors of the Theatre opened to allow the audience into the bar for pre-show drinks, "I do love Macbeth" said Lady Tramp-Dogg. "I hear this one will be slightly different. Not ready to start yet so plenty of time for G&T's in the bar"…

She had hung on to every word, but missed one important detail: cold nights, witches hang-outs and broomsticks make for a chilly, well... 

Still, she rearranged her outfit and soldiered out into the chill October air.

Dolly tutted "You`re not supposed to say the name of the Scottish play Lady Tramp-Dogg, it`s bad luck to say it".

"Supersitious nonsense" said Tramp-Dogg "What could possibly go wrong?

"Plenty", said Michael, as he slashed a piece of leg from someone at the back. "There's the filet' he muttered gleefully

Having put the mokkers on the evening's events, it seemed likely that any stage stabbing be performed delicately, just in case the knives were out of order. Was that a dagger she saw before her?

The other two witches chanting trouble trouble whilst setting up the Cauldron to stew all the parts were so busy they didn't notice one of IT's boys dropping to the stage floor and sinking his teeth into Hercate then…

Michael ran onto the stage with a carrier bag and pulled out the nose, lips, finger and fillet and showing them to Molly said "There you go and not an animal harmed". "Oh goodie" said Dolly "Drop them in the cauldron, Michael"; which he did before he glanced at the folks hanging round the bar...  

Hercate said, NOT ME you fang toothed idiot,  we haven't got all the parts yet and we are delaying the show!

Michael then noticed Hercate with two holes in her neck and blood pouring out over the stage and then

Gallons of dark crimson, almost black, ichor poured forth from the hag's punctured neck. She cackled, or gurgled, evilly ...

Michael stuck a plaster on her neck and said, Sorry I got carried away. Anyway it must have been IT.

Off to get some final parts.

Over at the bar Wally Hotpud, the celebrity baker, was being interviewed by Fat Mucus, presenter of the TV cooking programme. They were talking about the bread Wally was going to bake to accompany the stew in the witches pot, when Michael crept up behind them and frantically sliced into Wally removing his liver and then hacked Fat Mucus to get his gallbladder. Michael laughed "Job`s a good un - liver and gall off the list and not a soggy bottom in sight"....

Meanwhile

The stage floor was cleaned by Evillene and Hercate's blood saved for the pot.  Hercate had stopped screaming and plasters were put on her neck.  IT's boy was dissembled into parts and

Chucked into the cauldron. Have we finished" yelled IT? The audience are getting restless. We should let them in!

Go easy on the free nuts at the bar, under a buck for the packets behind the bar.

YES shouts Dolly and the three witches assemble behind this boiling cauldron steam rising and body parts seeming to jump up and down from inside ~ the audience screaming

With the audience let in, in staggered drunken Boris, known for enjoying a party. Michael pulled out a pair of scissors, chopped off Boris`s hair, and chanted "Alas poor Boris, I knew him well". "You idiot Michael" screamed Dolly, "It`s `Alas poor Yorik` and anyway that`s the wrong play". "Never mind" said Michael "I took a liberty and got you hair instead of wool of bat... Anyone keeping a check on how many things still needed for the pot?"

Curtis Lee Smug cracked a grimace at the modern cooking utensil in use by the 3 hags. "In my day, Nanny used the old steel tub that doubled as a commode! Tsk!"

With the audience settled, with nuts and booze, IT came to the front of the stage and introduced the play...

A shortened version, he said, although funny and gory. He cackled evilly.

"We want the Lost Boys" chanted some of the audience, when suddenly

Ducking out of the way of a forcefully-flung Dougal-like Fabri-Cant wig from the front row circle, IT moved back to his mark upstage

....

Suddenly from the ceiling a snake dropped down ready for the pot

Suddenly with much rustling in the rafters. 3 black cloaks opened and a lovely song was heard.

(VIDEO WONT POST)

The Lost Boys loved the song

But IT caught the snake and said 'No you don't Michael. No snake in the pot. Dolly said No ANIMALS.

Well there is a SNAKE IN THE POT !  but of course it is a mythical snake and doesn't count as real :

and don't forget POISON IS NECESSARY IN THE POT

The thump of the calliope rang out, to the shock of Miss Dolly:

(VIDEO WONT POST)

Did we need an eye anyone? Shouted the audience, one zombie eye being held up

Poison in the cauldron, now the pot began to glow eerily, hocus-pocus no more pictures - boom!

A skeletal hand bearing a wedding band slowly arose from the pot. With a Depp-th of voice, a scrawny kid in the audience hollered... 

"I've got a... I've got a dwarf and I am not afraid to use him!"

@Cleoriff wrote:

(And the poor scriptwriter said No more pictures or videos thanks )

That's Mi-Amigo off to TNS with Michael Myers, IT or Lost Boys after me!

So who is the dwarf gonna poison?

I recognise that Witch, It's my Mum, Dolly Daydream (said boy in audience)

Ichabod pursued a headless horseman through the stalls towards the stage....

Evillene who had not had a scratch yet tried to slip away but no here comes the Poison Dwarf leaping out of the Cauldron having partaken of the evil juices and

The headless horseman, with considerable difficulty, took a deep draft from the cauldron, wiping his neck on his sleeve .. .

Suddenly, The Lost Boys swooped down from the rafters with their Vampire teeth gleaming, they started to attack the audience. Mrs Knickers-ina-Twist said, "I've never seen this version of Hamlet" "Tut tut" said her friend Mrs Baggy Bloomers, "That's because it's Macbeth you fool"

"Will everyone stop saying the name of the Scottish play" cried Dolly "We`ve had enough bad luck already and heaven knows what`s to come with that blooming headless horseman prancing about"

Evillene saw this handsome?  horseman and decided to run off with him cloaks flying and horse leaping into the rafters where they knocked off the "boys" who fell onto the stage and turned into dust.

Meanwhile, the Lost Boys, were feasting on the necks of the audience...while people were worrying about a dwarf

Yep and they had turned to dust but because things are "terribly not normal here" they returned whole to the rafters ! so that they could swoop down and sink their long fangs into the audience. 

After that well they were so filled up that they returned to their ROOST

No-one knew which way to turn... with Lost Boys feasting on necks; the dwarf running around, and where was Michael and what was he up to now ??

Amidst a shower of sparks, a patchwork dog emerged from the cauldron. The boy in the audience shouted "Sparky, here boy!"...

Now it could be said that the Audience from the town of Deathmort were also very down on Population so many of them terrified by the "Lost Boys" ran out into the street to be met by

IT and Michael Myers who ordered them back into the theatre…"Nearly ending now" said IT , we have another play to do tomorrow in Batchester...

Back inside the theatre, the dwarf, with Sparky on a lead, chased after Gary Northgate, manager of Deathmort Football Club which hadn`t won a game in ages, caught up with Gary and Sparky bit Gary`s ankle while the dwarf hit Gary round the head

Anklebiters United, screamed a voice in the Stalls

IT and Michel Myers looked round the theatre and said "that was a good nights work. So many dead people, and weird things happening, Let's pack up and get out. We have more work to do tomorrow".

"Can I come" said Dolly Daydream. "NO" said Michael and IT,"We just have to pack up the Lost Boys and we are off.

Hope you enjoyed your stew. Good Night and 'bless you all'"

                                                                                         THE END.
