THE CURSE OF DIAMOND POND

Ha-Ha, I was just putting the finishing touches on my SLAY SCULPTURE kiddies! It's a REVOLTING-RENDERING of my CASTLE! My other art is a MONSTER-PIECE called STARRY FRIGHT! I'm quite a VINCENT VAN GOO, complete with a SEVERED-HUMAN EAR aha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. Another thing EAR I mean HERE, is a PUTRID-PIECE about a camping trip gone wrong, due to...
On a night back in the Summertime of 1960, a cottage stood nearby a pond, down, in the wilderness of southern-Alabama. An old man walked out of the cottage carrying a harmonica and as the sounds of crickets chirping were heard, he played "Polly-Wolly Doodle" on it. A group of five teenage punks wandered over to him from on a path then. "Evenin' Old Timer. We want some dough and liquor" one of the teenage punks said to the old man. "Evenin' boy. Now ya'll boys should not be drinkin' liquor at your age" the old man replied to him and then to all of them. "Y'all don't talk to us like that Old Timer. We'll just steal it and beat ya up!!" the punk said to him, meanly. He shoved the old man, causing him to fall to the ground, yelling. The teens ran into his cottage, the old man coughed and sat up in the grass. Soon, they ran back out, each carrying two bottles of Jack Daniel's Whiskey. "We didn't find any dough in there Old Timer. Pity for you" the punk who had pushed him down said to him. "Yeah, pity him, Will" another punk replied to the punk. Will and the other four punks all kicked the old man in his back, causing him to scream out in pain and clutch it with his hands. Then, Will and the others ran off down the path. "I place a Curse on Diamond Pond here. When you boys return here, the Curse shall fall upon y'all!!" the old man called out to them.
One month later, two teenage girls hiked through a small town in southern-Alabama one morning. "We're almost to Diamond Pond, Claudia. A fun weekend of campin' ahead" one girl said to the other. "Yes, indeed, Nadine. July is a fine time to campout. It should rain tonight though" Claudia replied to her. Nadine and Claudia walked into a building with a sign up, above the door, reading: "MAYBERRY CAFE" on it in white capital-letters. On a radio, Hank Williams sang "Kaw-Liga". Claudia and Nadine sat down at the counter by the old man from the cottage. "Mornin' girls. Goin' campin' I see" the old man said to Claudia and Nadine, then sipped a cup of coffee. "Good mornin' Mr. Henderson. Yes sir to Diamond Pond" they replied to him. Mr. Henderson drove a pickup truck away from Mayberry Cafe with Claudia and Nadine sitting beside him within it. “Thanks for the ride to Diamond Pond Mr. Henderson sir” Claudia and Nadine said to him. “My pleasure girls. I live by Diamond Pond, and it’s a mighty fine place. But I must warn y’all. It’s cursed. If those teenage boys return there, the curse shall fall on them I reckon” Mr. Henderson explained. “Curse?” the teenage girls wondered of him. “Yes indeed. Last month, Will Hollowwood and his Friends stole from me and hurt me” he explained to them. “Oh no not them! We’re mighty sorry sir” the girls said to him. Mr. Henderson, Nadine and Claudia arrived at his cottage nearby Diamond Pond out, in the wilderness.
Later that night, Nadine and Claudia were sitting around a campfire, with Nadine playing "Micheal Row The Boat Ashore" on a western-style guitar as she and Claudia sang it. Meanwhile, Will and the other four punks wandered up the path to Mr. Henderson's cottage together. The wind picked up, blowing weeds around Diamond Pond back and forth. Diamond Pond started to bubble suddenly. A creature came up, out of the water then, being in the moonlight. Its head was like a head of leafy cabbage that was white, outlined in bright-red. Its eyes were smaller dark holes, its mouth had white teeth in it, along with a rubbery-red-tongue. The creature wore a black robe with white plaid on it, and stepped out of Diamond Pond, howling away in an eerie high-pitched-tone. Will Hollowwood and the other teenage punks got to Mr. Henderson's cottage, and they each drank bottles of Jack Daniel's Whiskey together. "Danny, y'all sneak into Looney Mason Henderson's cottage here, and the rest of us will wait out here when you chase him out!" Will said to another punk. "Alright Will" Danny replied. Danny walked to the back of the cottage, and Will and the three others stood quietly in front of it, drinking whiskey. The monster from Diamond Pond slowly wandered closer to Looney Mason Henderson's cottage. "We'll murder him this time and search his cottage for more liquor and see if we can find any money, Joe" Will said to another punk. "Got it, Will" Joe replied. Meanwhile, Danny opened the backdoor and went into the cottage. He saw Mr. Henderson sitting at his kitchen table, eating a plate of corn on the cob. The punk got a switchblade-knife out of his pocket and pressed the button on it, making the blade pop out. Danny walked from the hallway, into the kitchen and put his arm around Mr. Henderson's neck, holding his weapon to his throat, causing Mr. Henderson to gasp in surprised-fear. The backdoor opened again, and the monster from the pond walked into the cottage.
Looney Mason Henderson dropped his corn on the cob on his plate and Danny put his free hand tightly on the old man's shoulder, swinging the knife to his back, as Mr. Henderson got up from his table as fast as he could. Looney Mason Henderson looked back, seeing Danny. "Danny Sanders, please do not kill me boy!" he said to him, begging. "Shut up Looney Mason Henderson. Get goin' outside now, or I will" Danny Sanders threatened him. Suddenly, the monster attacked Danny Sanders from behind, ripping claw marks in his shirt, with its black, thick and long claws. It howled in a high-pitched-tone again, and pulled Danny Sanders away from Mr. Henderson with its purple-veiny-hands of red, as the punk screamed in shock. He dropped the switch-blade-knife and the monster in the black and white plaid robe, drug him back into the hallway with it. Looney Mason Henderson turned around, and grinned with a grinning-face. Within the hall, the monster clutched Danny's head with one clawed-hand, and jerked it, breaking his neck and causing a sickening-crack of bones to be heard, killing him.
Will, Joe and the two other teenage punks finished the bottles of Jack Daniel's Whiskey and tossed them on the ground, smashing them then. It started to rain then. The punks ran onto the front porch of the cottage. Meanwhile, Nadine and Claudia crawled into their tent. “Joe go see what’s holdin’ Danny up in there man” Will said to him. “Alright Will” Joe replied and walked to the back of Mr. Henderson’s cottage in the rain. When Joe reached the backdoor, he got a switch-blade knife out of his pocket, and flicked it open. The monster came out of the back door suddenly, carrying the dead body of Danny Sanders over its shoulder. Joe screamed and ran but slipped in the grass and fell to the ground. The monster dropped the corpse, howled again, and attacked him, ripping claw-marks into Joe’s shirt, causing him to scream more in horror. Then, the monster grabbed his head, lifted it up and twisted it around, killing Joe instantly. Looney Mason Henderson looked at the monster from his open-kitchen-window and scratched his long, curly gray beard. "Good riddance, Joe Hamlin!" he said to the corpse of Joe and smiled. Meanwhile, Claudia and Nadine peeked out of their tent and saw Will and the other two punks standing on Mr. Henderson's front porch. "Oh no. Will Hollowwood and his Friends are after Mr. Henderson again, Claudia. We have to help Mr. Henderson!!!" Nadine said to her. "Absolutely Nadine!" Claudia replied, agreeing, and she and Nadine crawled out of their tent, and ran as fast as they could through the rain to the cottage. The three punks saw them and when the girls ran up, onto the porch, one punk grabbed Claudia tightly by her shoulders.
The monster walked around the side of the cottage in the rain, and approached Will Hollowwood. "Ben Sykes please let go of me!" Claudia said to the punk who had ahold of her. "Ah, shut up Claudia. We're gonna have to kill y'all and Nadine, 'cause we're gonna kill Looney Mason Henderson" Ben Sykes said back to her. Will got a switch-blade knife out of his pocket and stepped over to Claudia, pointing the blade at her neck. The monster howled eerily, making everybody gasp and look over at it. It stepped over to Will quickly, grabbed the knife out of his hand, and stabbed him within the shadows, killing him then. Ben Sykes let go of Claudia and they all screamed in terror. The girls ran around the side of the cottage in the rain, and the creature choked Ben Sykes with its purple-veined-hand of red. The monster choked Ben Sykes to death and the last punk ran around the side of the cottage where Claudia and Nadine had. Nadine and Claudia were both pounding on the back door of the cottage, as the teenage punk showed up. "Micheal Miller no, no, no!!" Claudia said to the punk and he pulled a switch-blade-knife out of his pocket. Micheal Miller grabbed Claudia by her shoulder and she and Nadine screamed, Claudia and the punk struggling, and thrashing from side to side. The monster walked up behind Michael Miller and stabbed him with Will's knife from behind. The punk let go of the girl suddenly, coughed, and fell over dead within the rain. The monster stared at the girls then with its smaller dark hole-like eyes, shaking its bright red-outlined-white-cabbage-like head. The shadowy-knife fell out of its purple-veiny-black-clawed-hand of red, and it ran off in its black robe with white plaid on it, further into the forest. The girls heard the monster let out another eerie howl.
Mr. Henderson walked into his hallway and opened his back door then. Nadine and Claudia ran into the cottage. "Golly, girls, y'all come right on in here and get dry! That monster from within Diamond Pond, was the Curse y'all see. He saved y'all too from them boys!" Looney Mason Henderson said to them. "Oh, golly, Mr. Henderson sir. That is sure good. Glad y'all are ok" Nadine and Claudia replied in relief. During that night, it wasn't raining anymore, and Nadine, Claudia and Mr. Henderson sat out, on his front porch together. As Mr. Henderson played his harmonica to the tune of "Polly-Wolly Doodle" again, the girls sang the song. Meanwhile, the monster picked up the corpses of the punks one by one, and dropped them one by one, down, into the waters of Diamond Pond. They all sank then. It then walked down, into Diamond Pond, and went back underneath the water.
Ha-Ha-Ha, what a SCE-SCARE-RIO at DIE-MOND POND, eh, kids? That was close for Poor Mr. Henderson and Claudia those TWO SLIMES, but the monster SLAY-VED them both aha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
