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.

Hmm a locked door smelling of for mr. hyde and a title of peter and the Frankenstein I can't help but think this is a clue...
Wow. How old was Dr. V again? That's a lot of hobbies, and a lot of doctorates. And a huge range of subjects as well! Although now that I take a second look (thanks, Wikipedia, for providing the definition of thanatology!), quite a few of those would be handy for making a certain movie monster...
I do feel for him, though - he's so enthusiastic about everything, and he comes up against Dill, who just doesn't care. I'd have Dr. V as a teacher any day.
Banot - Something that, on close inspection, fails to be a banana.
That's a lot of learning, not to mention a good show of how much he has taught himself.
And I think if they open door #1 we will find our monster, at least some of what will make it anyway.
And yeah Doctor V giving out phones, now I wonder how his mom and Grandpa will take this.
Computer is fixed, just caught up but... organic chemistry?! Ugh! Mr. Pillsbury I'm on vacation please don't bring up nightmares! Seriously, Organic chemistry gives me nightmares, and I still have another term of it! Blech.
v-word: frappoll- A survey on frappes
Boys had better hide those phones... lol
I'm enjoying this chapter. The pace is really nice too. Not too slow, not too fast. JUST enough info to start us guessing.
Word verif: lesse: The reciever of less.
DUN DUN DUN! What could possibly be behind the door...? lol How likely is it Dill's brother will nick his lovely shiny new mobile, and Peter's will be confiscated!?
Wolfsbane has many names. Don't you read Harry Potter?! :D Interestingly, it's apparently a member of the buttercup family (it is buttercups that are commonly used by children to determine if one likes butter, dandelions are the ones that make you wet the bed!). Maybe it can be used in a similar way to determine if one is a werewolf? Heheh.
If we assume Dr. V is the creator of the "monster", which would be an obvious choice in meta plot thinking (he is a "Dr", probably has the required knowledge and definitely enough drive to try something so unusual and there are no other candidates yet).
The safe and the hints to corpse parts would work perfectly with the Frankenstein theory. Even if everything he said was true, there is a quite disturbing possibility - Dr. V never said what kind of frog was he experimenting on (and reanimating dead creatures definitely is a delicate experiment...). He could have parts of the swamp monster in there...

Whuuuuuuuuuuuu?

I'd say he's probably 55, maybe 60. But he seems younger - he has a lot of energy. And good genes.
Yes, Dr. V is the unstoppable force, and Dill is the immovable object.
Awesome word!

Yeah, Dr. V is a certified genius.

Organic chemistry! Mu-ha-ha-ha!
Organic chemistry!
Organic chemistry!
Organic chemistry!
Organic chemistry!

Cool, glad you're liking the pace. Nobody's commented on how I'm doing 2 pages a day! This one started out REALLY slow for 1 page a day, so I opened up the floodgates until...oh...a couple of days from now...then we'll switch back to a page a day for awhile.
Cat -
Not for poor Southern children like myself. We used dandelions for the butter part.
Eldoran -
I never even considered that, but a Frankenstein dinofrog would be AWESOME.
But I can tell you that, no, unfortunately, that's not where this is headed.
