Either I've been spending too much time on IM with [livejournal.com profile] jkb or too much watching Harry Potter.

I was back in Rolla. A friend's house was going to be torn down, so she volunteered it for the Newman Center Haunted House that year. I was in charge and had everything set up. PJ gave me the go-ahead on the structural alterations.

I took Joanna out for a test walk-through to make sure everything was in place. Now, bear in mind this is a fund-raising haunted house: lots of rubber masks, lots of clown white make-up. We were just about to go in when Ramon (one of the workers) yelled "Look out! Mischief demon on the loose!" And sure enough the ugly critter was headed right for us. Joanna somehow froze it, in place over the door, and we decided to run the tour before it got loose.

We were the only ones in the house, and then we heard someone. She grabbed my hand, and we literally flew through the maze, plywood walls, dark halls, cotton spiderwebs and all. I kept trying to run, but my feet weren't on the ground and I couldn't stop screaming.

About then, my husband woke me up by crawling into bed.
