You'd think Dill would be a little more genre-savvy by now...but at least (as with the Gingermonsters) it's HIS fault this time if anything happens up there.
Of course, having said that, this is an elaborate fake-out by Darren, who will lure us (and the boys into a false sense of security, then get them when they think they're safe! Masterful.
Faliff = The Farsi word for a snowboarder. The term has fallen into disuse since the last ice age.
Ooh, this doesn't bode well... At first I thought that when Gwendolyn went off by herself, possibly she'd get into trouble, because she's been around Peter enough by now that she might have picked up some of his supernatural-weirdness-magnet-effect, and even though she's tougher (and probably smarter) than either of the boys, she's probably not a match for a snow demon all on her own.
But now they're heading waaayyyy up the mountain without a lot of people around, just as both Grandfather and Stu told them not to, and we all know what happens when you ignore that sort of advice...
WV: blybrimp: in Cockney slang, a derogatory term for someone who refuses to buy a round of drinks when it's their turn.
And because my first attempt at posting didn't work, now I have a new word:
Retors: travel industry term for tourists returning from a holiday.
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.

Rubberduck -
I LIKE your idea of the fake-out!
Unfortunately, no, it's ALLLL going down on the mountain.
But I need to remember that for the future...
misslynx -
That could have been cool, too, Gwen in trouble. Again, I'll have to file that away...
