DINNER WITH THE DEAD

I was just taking the first bite, my eyes unfocused a bit in anticipation, when they walked in.

But there is always room for another guest at my table. Or perhaps on it.

When they showed me the flames, I turned to run, but I was distracted by the smell of supper. That moment's delay almost cost me my life ... such as it is.

I was slow to realize that they planned to herd me and lock me in here. Now they are standing at a distance, congratulating themselves. I can still smell the adrenaline and sweat through the hole in the glass.

So hungry. And even dead, I still hate fluorescent lights.

(Everything in this post was found on the Zombie Popcorn Hunt, except for one of the poses and the blood spatter in my dining room. The Hunt provided many other very nice prizes that I couldn't work into this post, including skins, clothing, lingerie, jewelry, poses, and furnishings. The Zombie-and-Goth themed items are magnificent. But there are plenty of goodies for those of you who find the undead uninteresting. Two thumbs up. ... The Brain Kebabs are sized about right to have come from housecats, but of course they are just an appetizer. The Table is spread with a ghoulish feast of brains, still-beating-heart, and Rats. Eww.)

DO MONSTERS GO TO THE MOVIES?

Do monsters go to the movies? Do they have predictable favorites, or should I have put the Team Jacob shirt on the vampire?

(I picked up the Werewolf Hair at the Fantasy Faire. I bought other things of course, but this was my "must-have" item. Go figure. It includes both male and female versions, and yes it has chest hair. You know you want it! ... One caveat: the front area of the hair has patches that you can see through from the side of the hair: not an error, but a design choice. Try a demo. If you don't like seeing scalp, you can cover it with a darker skin, or a skin with a hairbase.)

Team Jacob:
Shirt: Avoid “Black/Twilight: Jacob” (from two shirt set)
Belt: Shush “Punk Black Belt” (JFTG hunt gift)
Hair: Wasabi Pills “Werewolf Hair” and “Werewolf Chest Hair”
Eyes: Poetic Color “fairy eyes – witch dark gr”
Skin: BLU282 “Marilyn My Bitterness”

Team Edward:
Shirt: Avoid “White/Twilight: Edward” (from two shirt set)
