Joe Towne stood before a group of five trick-or-treaters, arching over the flames of his bonfire so that his smiling face was shown in foreboding underlighting.
“And so every Halloween night, the monster of Swallow Falls prowls about these very parts, stalking for prey in the darkness…”
Cal and his friends gave their storyteller a glazed glance of boredom. Just then, they all sat up and gasped with fright as Joe continued pantomiming his story. About twenty feet from behind him was a silhouette that looked exactly like the very creature he was describing at that moment!
“He’s as tall as a man, but as hairy as a wooly mammoth. He walks around on all fours, showing off his drooling, sharp-toothed mouth…”
The kids all huddled close together shivering with fear as their monster snuck closer and closer behind the oblivious redneck.
“And once he’s spotted his prey, he rises up on two legs, raises his arms way up, and then pounces on ya with a great, big-“

[The title's a work in progress...
For ages now, I've been brainstorming a bunch of ideas for a potential Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs fanfiction, but of course, I need to wait until I've seen the second one before I can go out and finish this one. But I've been getting so many ideas, I just had to put SOMEthing out there before I finish it...
Something has turned our favorite, food-loving inventor into a complete monster! Can Sam Sparks and the rest of the gang stop him before the rest of Swallow Falls destroys him?!
Coming soon to a Deviantart near you...]
