[lfjokes] In The Spirit of Halloween

okay, be forwarned ... this is bad.

A man was walking home alone late one night when he hears a ...

BUMP... BUMP... BUMP... behind him.

Walking faster he looks back, and makes out the image of an upright coffin
banging its way down the middle of the street towards him ...

BUMP... BUMP... BUMP...

Terrified, the man begins to run towards his home, the coffin bouncing
quickly behind him ...

faster... faster... BUMP... BUMP... BUMP.

He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the door, rushes in,
slams and locks the door behind him.

However, the coffin crashes through his door, with the lid of the coffin
clapping ...

clappity-BUMP... clappity-BUMP... clappity-BUMP...

on the heels of the terrified man.

Rushing upstairs to the bathroom, the man locks himself in. His heart is
pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in sobbing gasps.

With a loud CRASH the coffin breaks down the door. Bumping and clapping
towards him.

The man screams and reaches for something, anything, but all he can find
is a bottle of cough syrup!

Desperate, he throws the cough syrup at the coffin ... the coffin stops.
