The Peeper

Greetings Kiddies, I was just cooking a DERANGED-DISH FEAR! Yes indeed. A REVOLTING-RECIPE from my favorite cook GHOUL-IA CHILD aha-ha-ha-ha! But while it's cooking, here's tonight's EERIE-APPETIZER, about a young girl who is being watched by...

On a rainy evening back in the Fall of 1969, a young girl jumped in puddles on the walkway of a house out, in northwestern-Utah. The front door of the house opened a young lady who was a hippie stood in the doorway, calling to her, "Andrea please come inside honey!". "Yes Mommy!" Andrea responded to her and ran into the home passed her. Andrea's mother shut the door. Meanwhile, a pair of glowing-eyes of red looked out from a window up, in the darkened-attic of their house. Andrea's mother took off Andrea's raincoat and Andrea sat down on the couch in the living-room. Her mother hung her raincoat on a rack and took off her daughter's boots. "Mommy, are you sure Daddy won't come back here and hurt us?" Andrea said, asking. "Awe, yes, Andrea sweetheart. I'm sure" she responded, kissing Andrea on her cheek. She smiled at Andrea, making Andrea smile back and put her boots in the closet then. During the night, Andrea slept in a bed in a bedroom upstairs, as rain fell outside her bedroom-window. Her hippie mother was burning incense down in the living room as The Beatles sang Eleanor Rigby on a record on a record-player by the archway between the living-room and the kitchen. Andrea's mother sat on their couch with the incense burning on the coffee table in front of her. Andrea woke up and went up, to the attic then. The two lightbulbs were on and she heard faint breathing coming from within a closet.

Andrea walked on over to the closet and the door slowly opened. It was dark within the closet, except for a window. The red eyes shined within the darkness and whatever it was, was the thing breathing. "Hia, Andrea, I have been watching you for a while now. I apologize that your Daddy hurt you and your Mommy. I, The Peeper, will look out for the both of you and help you two whenever you need me" the thing said to the girl, in a gruff-voice, with its eyes blinking now and then. The following day, Andrea's mother walked with her, holding her hand down a sidewalk among red, yellow and orange leaves that fell to the ground. "Did you have a fun day at Preschool honey?" the hippie asked her, smiling down at Andrea. "Oh, yes, Mommy we drew our favorite animal" Andrea responded, handing her mother a piece of paper. She looked at her daughter's rendition of a cat drawn in red crayons. "Oh, very nice Andrea" her mother said to her. "Thanks Mommy" she responded, smiling up at her. When they got into their house, Andrea ran upstairs. She rushed up into the attic and heard the gruff voice of The Peeper call out to her: "Andrea, I have a surprise for you!". The closet-door opened on its own then and Andrea saw what The Peeper fully looked like. The Peeper peeped at the young girl and was like a grotesque inhuman-skeleton, its bones covered with blue slime. Its skull resembled the skull of a snake. The Peeper had six skeletal-limbs like the boney-arms and hands of a human skeleton, it standing on all of them, with a human-like ribcage, and a long, skeletal-tail that was pointy. The monster was half the size of the big closet.

Andrea gasped in surprised-fright, and The Peeper said, to her, "oh, no need to be afraid Sweetheart. Here is your present, Andrea!". The skeletal and slimy-monster had a jump-rope on the floor in front of it. The girl took it from The Peeper and said: "thanks" to it. The Peeper blinked its shining-red eye-sockets, having slimy-eyelids and the door of the closet shut then. Andrea ran out of the attic then with her brand new jump rope. Andrea's mother heard the doorbell ring and, got up from on the sofa and answered it. A tall man stood out, on their front porch and said to her: "Ruth, it's me baby!!". He pushed his way into the house, shutting the door behind him. "Jack, what are you doing back here? Please go, ya dig?" Ruth asked him, telling him then. "You and our numbskull Daughter Andrea are in for it now, Ruth!!!" Jack said, threatening her and Andrea. He took a drink from a bottle of Kentucky Bourbon he held in his one hand. Jack then rose a switchblade knife that he held in his other hand. Ruth gasped in fear at it and backed up. Jack put down his bottle of bourbon on the sofa and slapped Ruth across her face, causing her to scream and fall. Andrea was coming down the stairs then and stopped, seeing her mother on the floor. "Daddy, what did you do to Mommy??" she asked Jack, scared. Her dad looked up at her, replying, "Andrea you brat, Daddy's gonna get you and Mommy!!". Jack ran for the stairs and Andrea ran back upstairs, with Jack racing up the staircase behind her. Ruth got to her feet, racing upstairs too. Andrea ran up to the attic, as Ruth's voice screaming: "JACK PLEASE NO!!!" from down on the second floor.

Jack got up to the attic with his switchblade and his daughter gasped in fear at him. "Come here Andrea ya little numbskull brat. Daddy's gonna kill you and then Mommy" Jack said to her and then the closet swung-open. The Peeper growled gruffly at Jack, stepping on six of its slimy and boney-limbs out of the attic-closet. Jack peered at the huge monster and screamed backing up immediately. The blue slime-covered monster with its head looking like a snake's skull attacked him, gnawing on his arm, growling away. Jack dropped his knife and The Peeper pulled him by his arm into the closet, as he writhed, thrashed back and forth, and screamed in horror. The closet slammed shut and Jack screamed more frantically among The Peeper's growls. Ruth got to Andrea and they hugged each other tightly. The sounds of ripping fabric and loud biting were heard among the deep growls, and Jack's screams stopped suddenly. The closet swung back open and The Peeper's voice gruffly came out of the shadows within the closet, speaking: "hello Ruth. I am The Peeper. I told your five year old Daughter Andrea here, that I would protect the two of you. I watch the both of you from the window within here. Jack her Daddy will not kill nor abuse you two any longer. I have eaten him alive. Enjoy your jump-rope from me, Andrea". The closet closed and both Ruth and Andrea smiled and walked out of the attic together.

Ha-Ha, well, The Peeper CLOSED THE CASE on that issue hee-hee-hee. As for Andrea, she found a BRAND NEW FIEND to play with. I wonder if The Peeper would like my SICKENING-STEW here! It's CRAM-PBELL'S SOUP, since I had to CRAM STU INTO IT aha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
