"Brains. BRAINS!" lol go Dill. He just won't shut up long enough to let GF explain. I love it when I can refrain from reading for a couple of days so I have more to read at a time!
Regarding the dictionary confusion, it's not that it specifically said Peter used the laptop. I think it was confusing because he said he spelt it wrong which implied he wrote it down rather than looked in a book, so I thought maybe I was missing something. But all makes sense now!
VW: whinwe. The sound a werewolf makes when hit with a silver earing. Also for when you need a bit of w in your whine.
To be fair to Dill, the word 'zombie' has aquired the meaning he's giving it even though the orginal definiton was from the Haitan 'zombi'. I think. The 'brains' bit is just silly, though - everyone knows you get more protein from eating muscle.
On that note, I will call Dill's fingernails and tips and raise him my TOENAILS and skin around those. I'm told it's disgusting, but I firmly believe it's the reason I can put my feet behind my head.
How funny! I myself am a stickler for proper use of the word zombie- either in the real world sense as described, or in supernatural literature as a corpse animated by magic with no need for sustenance- and can't stand all these so-called 'zombie' movies and games using the word.
A more appropriate word for any brains/flesh hungry creature would be ghoul (which is actually the word used in the original Night of the Living Dead, as I informed the comic store owner who tried to tell me that zombie was straight from Romero.
@ Rubberduck. Yes, that is disgusting. Thank you so much for the image ;)
Word Verification: tosentiz - the parts of the toes that Rubberduck eats.
Wonder how this is going to tie in with dr. V's research. You'd think he wouldn't let his creatures just wander around the graveyard and terrorize the caretaker. OK, Dean was right. He is a irresponsible scientist. Grant renewal denied!
Cat - I think you're right about the dictionary confusion and the "spelled it wrong" bit (I credit Rubberduck, I think, on this too). I've edited it in the master file (for publication in a book some day) so there's no mention of a computer, and he says "I looked at the wrong word." Maybe I'll get around to changing in the blog. Good call.
Rubberduck - Skin around the toenails?!
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
Rai - That's cool - thanks for letting me know you find it interesting! When people don't comment at all, I'm like, "Oh NO, they're BORED!"
ArtGoddessAthena - Um...okay.
Don't misuse the term 'zombie' around ArtGoddessAthena, peeps! She will CUT you!
Interestingly enough, I have plans for "Peter And The Ghouls" someday, although they will be much more animated and talkative than your regular...zombie... ghoul...dude.
Fiona - Yes! EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
That's right. One too man dead people came after the Dean's BRAINS.
As I've been reading the stories I've visualised them in black and white, a la the old horror movies. Sometimes I can hear the hum or buzz in the background.
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.

Coyinn = a room for the night...maybe.
How interesting. Not much else to say. Just want to hear the rest of this story Grandfather is telling. :)
