OUR SPECIAL PLACE


When the music plays,

And your body sways,

Let my arms hold you,

And my body spoons you.

We’ll sashay to our own beat

And let the town fall at our feet.

As the demons fall from grace,

This remains our special place.

PREY FOR THE DEAD

SNOW IS BLACK


A town where the snow is black,

bringing coldness & fear.

Old remnants of tears held back,

and times too hard to bear.

Woven from black sheets of rain,

fear covers in disarray.

Anguished & frozen with pain,

dark petals fall in dismay.

The Club at Disney World in Prey for The Dead


A small town on the coast of Florida offers tourists white-sanded beaches, blue skies, and an opportunity to vacation with the elite of society. Too bad the rich and famous include creatures of the night. How did this happen, you might ask?

While vampires inhabit every country in the world, they blend peacefully with humanity. In Oasis, Florida, the human inhabitants have no idea vampires or hybrids, which are a part vampire/ part human mix, live in their midst. 

In recent years, the world’s vamp population has been threatened by a rogue group of vampires with bloodlust running through their veins. THE DEAD have infiltrated the vamps of Oasis and wrestle for control. They want to rule the world.

Linda, her best friend, Shana, and their group of young friends learn of THE DEAD. They join forces with the vampires and hybrids of Oasis. They travel undercover to an exclusive club in Disney World with the two hybrids, Todd and Sam, to locate THE DEAD’s base of operations. 

Why did I choose THE CLUB at Disney World for the vampires’ base? Is there such a club in Disney where its members are the elite of society?

Yes. There is. It’s called CLUB 33. Walt Disney created the club in Disneyland in the New Orleans section. It sits behind a door with the number 33. A door that resembles all other doors on the quaint streets. If you are lucky enough to be invited by a member, you will walk through the doorway to an elegant entranceway. The hosts will greet you and take you to one of the parlors, where you may peruse the showcases of Walt Disney’s favorite things. Maybe Mary Poppins’ umbrella or a speaking parrot sitting above a clock. The adventure continues in the dining room, where toots of steamboats provide the aura of being in New Orleans. 

You can climb the staircase or use the old elevator.

Visit the showcases of Disney memorabilia. 

Disney 33

Once I read of CLUB 33, a forbidden club, I became obsessed with knowing more. The more I learned, the more I wanted to give it to my vampires. I used the images of CLUB 33 in Disneyland to create THE CLUB in Disney World. And wait until you see what they do to THE CLUB. You will never look at Disney World the same way again.

And guess what? I read CLUB 33 opened in Disney World. Too bad. I had my club first or what’s left of it.

A RED GLOW


red glow

Alexander Calder, Sumac V. 1953.

A glow in the night

will lead me astray

from the moon’s light

to where I can’t say.

Bloody prints mark the way

to a small town on the shore.

At the end of the day,

we are at the devil’s door.

Time has no meaning or reason.

You can travel forward or back.

Death will follow with each season.

It is past time for me to pack.

A HORROR STORY


We stand alone in this bleak hall.

There won’t be dancing at this ball.

Time to leave this creepy place.

We must quicken our slow pace.

But since this is a horror story,

We will not be leaving with glory.

CREEPY, CREEPY, SCARY


1 nFnLITTbo-ReW53f2UEktQ


Creepy, creepy, scary.


It can become hairy.


The house is haunted and dark.

 

I came on a simple lark.


But now that I’m here,


I’m frozen with fear.

 

A party is to be held for us all,

 

But to evil creatures, we might just fall.

 

Down to the basement, we go,


It is silly, even I know.


Saws are swinging up ahead,


Looking to chop off a head.


Traps fall from the low ceiling.


My wet feet have lost their feeling.


We are standing in a pool,


And I feel like a big fool.


We should have gone when we had a chance.

 

The creatures will make us sing and dance.


The Dead have a morbid sense of humor.


I should have listened to each rumor.


Goodbye to one and all.


Look!


I see the bouncing ball.

DARK FANTASY


What lies hidden beneath End House?
Familiar faces & bony countenances.
A cacophony of moans & sounds.
A community of creatures living in the tunnels.
Friends who might be returning to the living,
Or the living who might be joining the dead.

THE WATCHERS


gingerbread house

A gingerbread house so quaint.
Disguised with colorful paint.
An evil group lives here.
And our town is so near.
They are Watchers for The Dead.
I’m afraid to go to bed.
Come and take a quick look.
Or you can read my book.
