Campfire Scarytales: Submission 2: Under Moonlight, You'll Feel Fright--Locked Fire Door and a Twin Brother's Roar (Cursed Sun God Ra/First Full Moon's Lupine Claw); (Guardian's Curse/Full Moon)

59 minutes

Like Blake and his leper colony in John Carpenter's THE FOG, By Campfire, We Conspire-

Tonight it is a rotting, yet radiant mum mum that will upset your tum tum and one half of two twins during a full fstars moon!

Good Evening, Match Scratchers!

"Follow the drying leaves

to the dying fire lit clearing…

Here we recite chilling tales

and ignite cooling coals…

Lob another log upon the fire,

if you claim you're unafraid, you're a liar."

"When Midnight Chimes, we

meet, death, we seek to cheat."

Welcome to CAMPFIRE SCARYTALES, where our campsite

will affright till morning light.

"When midnight chimes, we

both will meet,

Podcasting slick, sick tales to

scare;

Master your fear, stoke dying

heat--

Embrace the coal's glowing

orange glare." Falsetto, No Mr. accent on the to.

If you once enjoyed, still enjoy or will enjoy

henceforth, and in perpetuity, Nickelodeon's very own Are You Afraid of

the Dark? broadcast that terrified tot

and teen alike in the early 90's, then you will feel right at home on the

forsaken rocks, atop the speaker's stone throne while occupying temporary,

nocturnal space in this chillingly convenient clearing where fellow match scratchers

meet to pour tales of terror upon an open flame. These terrifying testimonies

are far from tame, the most unnerving, unsettling and upsetting scarytale wins

the game and striking matches, along with striking deeply into your core fear

gland, proves their aim. If you're soon too frightened or anxious to sleep, if

you intend to scream but can nary muster a peep, if your once spry movements

retard to a lumbering creep, in becoming a slave to your fears, you have but

yourself to blame.

Between midnight and first light we meet, our

appetites prepped for delicious tales of fright, in your own unease, crawling

skin, tingled spine and sweaty brow we take delight, it will be hours before

you can see anything beyond our proximal campfire light, our weekly night

light, we cleared, constructed and consecrated this campsite, in our Match

Scratch Society we revel in delight, it is both our sacred and unholy duty to,

your fears, incite, this cold cord of wood ignite--your amygdala affright, if, by

some miraculous design, you survive the scarytale of the night, then it is your

solemn Campfire Scarytale duty to find your Match Scratcher ass back to this

haunted hollow with your own flashlight!

Today, you are tricked or treated, depending on your

point of voodoo with our second submission tale of terror. Between midnight and

first light, strike a match and, a new batch of dismaying, fears and anxieties

not allaying, tales hatch; the goal is to, the last told tale, outmatch and

leave the loser, to the victor, begging for a rematch…with that Match

Scratchers, sleep deeply and remember to, your bedroom window, latch.

Podcasted for the Auditory Approval of the Match

Scratch Society, we whisper, through the mic, our fireside submission, sometime between midnight and first light of Campfire Scarytales: Submission 2: At Midnight, Under

Moonlight, You'll Feel Fright--Locked Fire Door and a Twin Brother's Roar (Cursed Sun God Ra/First Full Moon's Lupine Claw); (Guardian's Curse/Full Moon)

Your host: That's Falsetto, No Mr. accent on the to and co-host: Dr. Red Devil with a REH REH REH

Until next time, Match Scratchers!

Remember, only you can prevent forest fires, call out Campfire Scarytale imposters and disloyal

match scratcher liars!
