The countdown begins!! I love Halloween and to celebrate, i wrote a short 3 part story showing how Halloween might go down in the Phantasm realm. I will post 3 chapters for the next 3 weeks and end the last week of October by posting something i wanted to do last year for Halloween but just did not have the time. Anyway, lets kick it off wit h Chapter 1 of 3. These are VERY short reads (maybe 10-20 minutes tops), so i hope everyone enjoys and please, leave comments on what you think, if you like it or not!! Thanks-Prymal Attachments:

The opening with Mrs. Elrod and the Tall Man.... YIKES. Talk about a ventriloquist from hell.
"Right at this moment, Jody hated himself almost as much as he hated the Tall Man."
Arguably the most profound look inside what remains of Jody's soul we've had, official or otherwise, since he became a sphere.
HA! Haha. I love Reggie's defensive reaction in the Men's room.
Oh, man. Thank you for revising Mike inside Morningside Sanatarium. Phantasm II totally whizzed this great opportunity down its leg.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE this explanation of the doppleganger. What a crazy twist!
Oh, man. You've got me laughing so hard with that Security Guard's name. This is too funny.
Okay, I've gotta admit - I called this one's ending from the opening paragraphs. I did! I knew the name Ms. Elrod because the only time I've ever heard it was from that brief scene in that - well - I won't spoil things. I will say this - I'm mighty curious to see where you go from here, Prymal! Gee whiz!

Thanks for the feedback Dustin! I really dig it when people drop a line or two on my work. The whole Jody thing is a little dark and deep for a small, fun Halloween story, but i couldn't resist because i think it is a story that needs to be told, even if it is brief. Yeah i agree, there is a plethora of possibilities in the Sanitarium years for Michael Pearson that we did not get to see in the philms. The doppelganger is becoming a 'must explain' in all my stories, along with putting that character that played the security guard in his own nightmares, lol. That is too cool that you caught the Mrs Elrod... i like that, it means you were paying attention and that i didn't put you to sleep, lol! Did you catch the other 2 names, Reggie's cousin & Mrs. Elrod's husband? I felt they would be a clue in also. Thanks again for posting your feedback, i hope you enjoy the rest as i post!-Prymal

Well, I've just read all the parts so far of your "Reggie's Halloween" story and all I can say is...good job! Very interesting crossover, and the twists and in-jokes you added in the story were very well done. I also quite like you explanations for the various "unique" minions the Tall Man has in the films.

Thanks for the feedback Lupus! If you enjoyed this, you may enjoy my Phantasm 4.5 :The Ice Cream Chronicles that i have posted here. Very short chapters, so they are a quick read. Yeah my "unique" minions. LOL. You will see a lot of familiar faces in my stories. I think that the behind the scene people like Postmortem, Hearseman, and soon to be published Dustin M. are as much a part of the Phamily as our on screen heroes, so they deserve some "page Time". Thanks again, and if you read anymore of my work, please leave a comment! -Prymal
