Peter's turning into action man in this story! You know, once he gets out of this town, he's not going to be scared by anything, ever. His Halloweens will pretty much just be about the candy from now on - unless some certain psychos show up.
Nuccon = a place where people meet and discuss, argue over, and dress up as various ICBMs. Iran has been hoping to attend one for a while, but no-one wants to give it an invitation.
"Dress up as various ICBMs." ROFL That's what I want to be for halloween! What could be scarier, right? On topic, I was kinda hoping that the body would disappear somehow by now. They might be able to get away with their first kill (how would you do the forensics tests?), but Peter and Dill could be in big trouble if somebody dies from a knife wound. Oh well, you gotta do what you gotta do. Maybe Grandpa will be able to hide the bodies somehow, if and when he shows up.
The dark entrance underneath the house was only about two feet tall by three feet wide – perfect for Peter, and impossible for a werewolf.
For all Darren's previous excellent descriptions of the size and power of the werewolves, nothing quite says it as well as, "Here's a two foot by three foot entrance that's impossible for a werewolf to enter." If you've ever seen a dog with an eighteen inch "chest" get through a twelve inch hole, you'll know what I mean.
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.

Pity that loyalty didn't extend to Charlie.

Well now, Peter has a fear of spiders it seems. I hope he never runs into Giant Mutant Cave Spiders. I don't think he would ever sleep again.
Good thing they are just butter knifes, they will not split your leg open quite so fast.

Good writing skills.
V-word - horrev. Too easy. :-)
Todd -
Yeah...
AnakMoon -
A few too many drinks, and one-too-many head-slammings.
Rubberduck -
EXCELLENT word definition! You get the Halloween prize!

That's actually a possibility for a future story, although I think it would be FAAAR in the future.
Um the Muse -
Nope, no Buffy-like POOFS into dust. They're going to have to deal with the fallout from leaving dead naked guys around.
MistyCat -
Glad you liked that one!

I hate it when that happens.
