PETER AND THE VAMPIRES is a horror/comedy web novel (and a free podcast!)about a normal, 10-year-old kid who moves into a sinister town filled with supernatural horribleness. The series is composed of different "monster of the week" stories - kind of like THE X-FILES crossed with THE SIMPSONS (if Mr. Burns were a ghoul and something terrifying lived in the town dump). "Peter And The Dead Men" is the first story in the collection. A new page is posted every day.

A butterknife in an apple - good.
A butterknife in a garlic clove - better.
A silver crucifix in a garlic clove - not too bad.
Rule 37: There is no "overkill." There is only "open fire" and "time to reload.

I'm confused how they made it all the way back to the slingshot. Is Chubbs still staying put because Jon told him to? Or am I misgauging the distance back to the slingshot? It's five o'clock in the morning, so I don't rule that out.
*sneaksneaksneak*
I've been rather ninja-ie this story, haven't I?
Fear not, I'm still reading each day.
I feel bad for Peter. This is going to haunt him, but he'll have to try to remember that:
1. They aren't actually HUMAN at this time.
2. If he didn't drop that jewelry down Jon's throat, him and Dill would have made for a tasty treat. Nom nom nom.
3. THOSE SICK BASTARDS KILLED CHARLIE!
I miss Charlie.

Oh a minor remark to the old and proper sorority. Silver is quite flexible, so knives of old silverware usually only have silver handles... Forks might be the logical better choice, cake lifters are usually completely silver too, how about carving fork - they are usually larger.
have a sterling silverware complete set - wedding gift from the in-laws. (they never once used it when it was theirs...!!!!)
butter knives are indeed the exception to the silver-handle/steel blade rule of silver knives. since they aren't meant to be going against anything harder than, well, butter....
hope contact poisoning alone is sufficient to incapacitate werewolves.
wv: sponres. how appropriate. a truly formal table setting should probably have a sponres, for those drippy ladles.

I gotta say, Peter and Dill are diabolical geniuses :)
I knew (at one point) that the slingshot just had to be the answer somehow, but in all the excitement, I totally forgot about it.
The poor boys must be freezing about now, though. I don't know what the weather is like there, but this is late at night on Thanksgiving, right? Here, at least, I'd expect snow (heck, even today's got several inches).
Aveste, ye maties!
Well looks like it's Peter's time to get saved by Dill. I hope he runs fast enough, and carries some silver on him to get the wolfs to back off.

I like Corporal Schlock's motto...

Chubbs is rather dim. He's been staying put for about 10-15 minutes now since Jon's last shout-out. (Howl-out?)
And it's only about 75 feet from the sorority house to the slingshot.
But now...Chubbs, Chubbs, here comes the Chubbs...

Good to see you back! Didn't know the 'n' stood for NINJA.

I meant 1940-50's old, not 1850's old.
And because pure silver is so soft, silverware (REAL silverware, not stainless steel cutlery) is sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver by weight. At 95+ %, Britania silver is even better.
Which in Duskerville, I assure you, is enough to kill any werewolf or vampire. Properly placed/inserted/injected, that is.
Heck, even Sheffield Silver, which is basically silver-plated copper, will the do the trick.
Lachesis -
Hello, Lachesis! You are well-outfitted to kill werewolves, I assure you!
And thank GOD the inlaws never had to use it to kill werewolves! May you pass it on to your children, too, without ever having to stick it through an apple and launch it with a giant sling!
Um the Muse -
YAY! I was hoping people would forget about the slingshot...
Well, it's unseasonably warm in Duskerville this year. Maybe 50 degrees at night. Plus the terror and running around have distracted the boys...
And you know 10 year-olds, they NEVER want to put on jackets or extra clothing...

Hmmmm...

Correction: the sorority house is two over from the werewolf frat, and then down the side of the house...so about 150 feet over, then 50 feet down the side of the house.
Heh, "the werewolf frat." I assume the frat boys on vacation are oblivious to the werewolf subset among their ranks?
