I thought I had bad hair days! I’ve dealt with wolves before, but never like this. The kind I’m used to are all bark, no bite. They howl, they drool, and who do you think gets stuck with the check? I mean, fangs a lot, fellas!Now my young friend Whitney keeps trying to convince me he’s a werewolf. As if. I mean, I like a good practical choke as much as the next ghoul. But if this kid doesn’t give it up soon, he’s off to his tomb with no supper.There he is now. Look at him. What’s with all the fur? And those fangs—hasn’t he heard about caps? Still…the blood looks pretty real. That arm in his mouth, too. You don’t think…Jeepers creepers! I better give Whitney a yelping hand before the neighbors scare up some silver bullets. I tell ya, a ghoul’s work it never done!Death wishes, Elvira
