A Spooky Halloween Story From Seattle

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with ACCURATE REALTY GROUP

A full moon rises on the water. It stirs me from my slumber as I obey the command of a distant voice, echoing in my head saying "rise up, rise up now"… Crossing the room, as if in a trance, to my window, I move like some stranger, totally possessed by forces I cannot see. I glance upon the October moon as it transforms everything in its path  into a twisted blur of menacing light. 

 

Nothing else matters as I see what I must do in the mystical clouds shrouding the moon on this ominous night. I turn from my window, and slowly sleep walk to the door, guided by a power beyond my control. As I pull the door closed behind me, I know somewhere in the dark cavernous recesses of my mind, that this night will not end well…

Can anyone match the ominous laughter of Vincent Price?...

No, I sure can't match his laughter. And that's a good thing - I think. :) Well done on the slide show - loved the music. And the moonlight can make other light sources appear so mystical and, at times, menacing.

Hey Judi -

The moon, the water, the music all put together very tastefully.  Great job!  Good Localism for Seattle too.

Best regards from the Q

Good afternoon, Judi. No. Vincent Price and all the older actors were in a class of their own...

No, Judi - No one can imitate the ominous laugh of Vincent Price.  There was something about the older thrillers that seemed more frightening than today's movies.  I don't know if it was the actors, the black and white films, or just that they were being filtered through much younger eyes and perceptions.
