Welcome to ISSUE 77 OF CREEPS CASTLE, Kiddies! This is your GHOST-HOST, CREEPS, with another BOOGEYMAN-BATCH OF BITTER BILE for all of you. Now, let's see here! Aha! Here's a TALE OF TERROR with a DEAD END heh-heh-heh. It's about some teenagers getting THRILLS AND KILLS from visiting a spook house named...
Back in September, 1967, there was a building that resembled a cave over in Southeast-Kansas out in the countryside. There was a white sign in front of it that read in capital-letters of green: "SLIME CAVE", and an elderly man sat in a lawn chair by the sign. He smoked a pipe and looked at the wheat field across the road blow in the wind of the day. A red Chevy drove down the road, approaching the old man. A teenage boy was at the wheel, listening to The Byrds sing: "Mr. Tambourine Man" on his car radio. The teenager stopped on the side of the road in front of Slime Cave. "Howdy, sir, my eye caught sight of your Slime Cave here" the teenage boy said to the elderly man, shaking hands with him. "Howdy, Sonny, yes indeed. This here is Slime Cave a spook house attraction run by me. $5.00 only" he responded to him, explaining. The teen handed him money from his wallet and walked into the wood-structure known as Slime Cave. He saw thick, green slime oozing and leaking from the wooden-cave-walls within the dim-lightbulbs, hearing sounds of water dripping. As the teenager went deeper into the shadowy, slimy-place, he turned left and then turned right. A second pair of footsteps were soon following behind him. He stopped walking and turned around. "Y'ALL SHALL BE THE FIRST SPOOKY PROP DUMMY OF SLIME CAVE HERE SONNY!" the elderly man shouted at him, raising an axe within the air and lowering it as the teen screamed. 
That evening, two teenage hippies sat on a couch in the living-room of a house together. There was a blue lava lamp on a coffee table in front of the couch, and Van Morrison sang "Brown Eyed Girl" on a record on a record-player within the corner of the room. "Dan is still on the road driving, Patty" one hippie said to the other one. "Yeah, Alice, he must be. Maybe we should go find him" Patty responded to her, suggesting. "We could. He is our Brother" Alice added, saying. A man walked into the living room. "Dan hasn't come home yet girls?" he asked Alice and Patty. "No Dad. We were just saying that we should go out and find him" Alice responded to him. "Well, alright. Your Mother is already asleep upstairs, so be quiet coming back please" Alice and Patty's dad said to them. "Alright, Dad, groovy!" Patty responded and she and Alice left. Alice drove a yellow VW Bug and her sister sat beside her, looking out the passenger-side window of the car. They drove down the road to the red Chevy by Slime Cave and Alice parked behind the Chevy. The hippies walked up to the red car. "Dan's Chevy! What should we do Alice, I'm not digging this!" Patty said to her sister. "Yes, I'm not digging this either, Patty" she responded, worried. Patty and Alice wandered into Slime Cave together then. 
The next day, Dan, Alice and Patty's dad was in the passenger's seat of a police car, with a policeman driving it down a country road. "Yeah, Officer Smith, my Son and two Daughters did not come home last night like I said before. My Wife is pretty worried of course. I told her to stay at home and I would go to you guys" their dad explained to the cop. "Yes, I definitely understand, Mr. Wilkinson. We'll find them sir" Officer Smith replied, reassuring him. They drove further down the road and made it to Alice's yellow VW Bug and Dan's red Chevy. Officer Smith parked behind the vehicles. "It's Alice's VW Bug and Dan's Chevy Officer Smith!" Mr. Wilkinson said to the cop. "No worries Mr. Wilkinson, they're around here close I'm sure" Officer Smith responded, assuring him. The old man was puffing on a cigar out, in his lawn chair and they walked on over to him then. "Howdy sir. I'm Officer Smith and this is Mr. Wilkinson. We're looking for Mr. Wilkinson's teenage Children. Two of them are girls and are hippies, one is a boy. These are their vehicles" Officer Smith explained to him, shaking his hand. "Howdy, Officer and Mr. Wilkinson. Yeah, I saw those kids last evenin'. They went on into my spook house Slime Cave here and uh, they walked on out then" the old man lied to Mr. Wilkinson and Officer Smith. "And your name is sir?" Officer Smith wondered of him, asking. "Name's David Warren sir" he responded. Suddenly, there was a moaning coming from within Slime Cave and Mr. Wilkinson ran into the attraction. Officer Smith looked at David Warren, then ran into Slime Cave also. 
"Patty, Dan, Alice? Are y'all in here?" Mr. Wilkinson cried out, racing quickly through the maze of Slime Cave. The moaning got closer and louder, as he went deeper into the place. Mr. Wilkinson turned a corner and there was the corpse of his son Dan, hanging by a rope around its neck against one of the green slimy-walls. Mr. Wilkinson screamed in shocked horror. Dan's dead body had no eyeballs, just eerie, black-eye-sockets, and its rotting-head was bald then. It hung there in its black suit and tie. The moaning seemed to having been coming from passed Dan's dead body. Officer Smith got to Mr. Wilkinson and screamed at the sight of the corpse. David Warren came running as fast as he could and held a hatchet up, in the air at Officer Smith then. "OFFICER SMITH WATCH OUT SIR!!" Mr. Wilkinson yelled, seeing David Warren. Officer Smith turned around quickly, grabbed his gun and aimed it at David Warren. "Y'all are both gonna be more dummies for my spook house of Slime Cave here, Officer Smith and Mr. Wilkinson!" David Warren said to them and the rotting-corpse of Dan sliced the rope with David Warren's ax that the corpse was holding. The corpse, now being a living dead zombie, landed on his zombified-feet and approached David Warren, as his dad and Officer Smith gasped in horror. "Y'all murdered my Sisters and I sir" the zombie of Dan moaned to David Warren, as green slime oozed out of his rotting-eye-sockets. "No! A living-dead zombie!!!" David Warren said, gasping in horror. He swung the hatchet at Dan's zombie, but the zombie teenager blocked it with David's axe, knocking the hatchet out of the killer's hands. The zombie had a cut going down the left side of his rotting head and face, and it began oozing more green slime out of it then. David Warren ran passed him, Officer Smith and Mr. Wilkinson, screaming. The moaning came from the zombie of Alice, as he ran straight into her. 
She also had no eyes, just black eye sockets, a dead-white face, and dead-black lips. The zombie of Alice stood in her hippie dress of yellow, black and white stripes going across her long-sleeves, and black and white striped-socks up her rotting-legs. David Warren screamed, shocked at Alice, and she clutched his throat with her decayed-hands, moaning louder and louder. Her short black curly hair blew eerily. The third living dead zombie of Patty stumbled out of the dim-lit hall, seeming to peer at David Warren with her huge eye sockets, as her long and straight blonde hair also eerily blew. Patty's zombie also had a dead white face and dead-black lips, stumbling towards the killer in her beige jacket, and navy-blue dress. She carried a knife in her rotting-hand. The zombies of Alice and her sister both moaned eerily then and the killer's eyes grew big, seeing Patty's decaying-zombie. Patty held the knife up to David Warren's face. An axe suddenly swung through the air and the sound of it being buried into a back was heard, as David Warren' face gave a look of shock. The zombie of Alice let go of his throat and he fell to the floor, dead. Dan's zombie stood behind the corpse of the killer, green slime still leaking out of his eye-sockets and cut. Mr. Wilkinson and Officer Smith rushed to the three zombies and gasped at them. Dan's zombie then stood between his living-dead hippie sisters. As Officer Smith walked to his police car, he looked back hesitantly, seeing Mr. Wilkinson coming out of Slime Cave with the zombies of his kids. They all smiled over at the corpse of David Warren that hung by the rope around its neck on the side of Slime Cave. 
Dan made Slime Cave pretty AX-CITING in the end eh, Kiddies? Ol' David Warren HUNG AROUND it OF CORPSE ha-ha-ha-ha! But its no longer SLAY-MOUS anymore, because NO-BODY will go near it heh-heh-heh-heh-heh!
