h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm sure we all know how these work, but just in case

First person starts with a line or two of a spooky tale anbd the next poster carries on etc.. can it be kept going till halloween itself?



'' It was a dark and stormy night in the ...

Can this have a bit of humour?

Id be very disappointed if it didn't

"Very down trodden and slightly unhealthly Londonesc town...

A man walked alone through the gloomy streets, his shoes clicking on the uneven cobbles...

speak up legs

How odd... I did* type something... but it didn't appear where were we?

'whisper'

A man walked alone through the gloomy streets, his shoes clicking on the uneven cobbles...

"The two twins said ello and walked on.

he shrugged in reply and carried on, whistling to himself to keep out the chill

He stopped and looked around, as a rustling noise seemed to come from behind him

just to see a headless knight in a rusty armour.

Funny, he thought, that headless knight in a rusty armour is rustling and not squeeking or clanking. This is very I think I must be in some sort of spooky chain story.

now,2 things I need
that book on 'how to get ahead' and
the WD40

clank
I know, I'll go and visit the witches who live in the forest they are sure to have a spell or at least a supply of WD40. I know that book on "How to get ahead" dosen't work, I was only talking to the headless horesman this morning. He is a very funny bloke, you never quite know where to look when you are talking to him. His horse is a bit frisky too.

just then the sky darkened even more and
silhouetted against the sky were four menacing riders
'gosh' said the man 'they also look frisky' !
the headless horseman said 'it will be alright,
just close your eyes and pucker your lips' !



......

Fortunately, the man had just come from the butchers where he had bought a pound and a half of chicken lips so he was able to pucker without too much trouble.

Gadzooks!! he cried out as the menacing riders rode towards him. He remembered what the headless horseman had told him. "I stand and deliver me lips to you" he cried out. "Oh and by the way please do not harm me"

As the riders got close enough to whip away his lips, the man saw that they were very silhouetted and very menacing rather like angry looking wall shadows. But scary oh yes very scary

(the horsemen used to be friendly but after a binge they became paralytic, bad tempered, then apocalyptic ) - sort of 'apuckeryourlips' now !

after they sobered up they signed on as riders for a satellite channel.



anyway way to the s ? ......

The man realising that they were infact not so scary but in fact hungover. The smell of their breathe made him think of his wife when she returned home from sucking on the barmans apron.
Gadzooks he cried again. (He quite liked saying Gadzooks) This is indeed the age of apuckeryourlips.

With that he turned abruptly and fell flat on his face.
