Maudlin Movie Monster

Written for "Invalid Item" 

Eve and Tracy loved horror movies. They especially liked the old monster flicks. Sure, some of them were a little hokey, but they were such fun.

This was a classic. The monster leapt out upon two young girls as they were walking along a quiet street. The girls jumped and giggled at the surprise.

On their way back home they walked past an alley that looked like the one in the movie.

Eve said, “I wish those movies were more realistic.”

Tracy said, “Yeah, me too.” They both laughed.

The same hokey movie monster jumped out and ate them both.

It said, “Hah, laugh at my movies, will you?” It licked its teeth and slipped back into the shadows.
