SELECT YOUR DESTINY BOOK #9 - HAUNTED MANSION MADNESS!

You decide that you'd better get back on the trail of Cletus the hunchback before it grows too cold, so you rush (cautiously!) back to the room with all the cages, the last place you actually saw him.

It turns out your mad rush was all for nothing, as the first thing you see upon entering the room is Cletus standing a bit too close to the big lever for your comfort.

"I had a feeling you'd be back," Cletus says, leaning casually on the lever with one elbow while carefully inspecting the fingernails of his other hand.

"I can't let you have the money, you know," he says calmly, still ignoring you and gazing wistfully at his nails, which you now notice are meticulously manicured. "Not after all the crap I had to endure, being employed here as 'the amusing hunchback'! The jokes made at my expense! The ridicule I've faced! The footrubs!"

He now looks up at you with a cole stare.

"Look, let's not be unreasonabe here. Maybe we can work something out," you say, taking a careful step forward.

"Ah ah ah!" he warns, wagging a finger at you. "You think I'm dumb enough to fall for that, you've got another thing coming!" And with that, he accidentally puts too much weight on the lever, pushing it down and opening every cage in the room.

"Shit," he says, eyes wide in terror.

You look anxiously at the cages, waiting for untold horrors to emerge from within. Finally, from one of the cages a hideous beast appears!

AWWWWW!!!!

Then another and another, and pretty soon you have a bunch of adorable, mewling, fluffly little kittens all around you.

"Awww," you start to say, only it's completely overshadowed by the loud "Aiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee! I have a thing about caaaaaaaaaats!" from Cletus as he tramples over you in sheer terror, breaking your spine in the process. As you lay there paralyzed, you start to ponder at what point the cuteness of a kitten ends as many of them gather round and slowly peel your flesh from your body with their affectionate licking.

YOU GOT KILLED BY KITTENS. YOU ARE OFFICIALLY THE MOST PATHETIC PERSON WHO EVER EXISTED. START OVER!!!

If I sleep in the nude, why am I wearing the same clothes I "rolled out of bed with in the morning"?

"Doctor says he's got the diabetes, says that makes him hyperglycemic. Know what that is? Means he's got to get a lot of sugar in him all the time, or he'll get all listless and moody!"
One of the best Destiny Books so far.

Of course there's also the issue of why I have toiletries when I didn't pack.

I'm still loving this. It doesn't need to make sense.

Two words: birthday suit.

Wait a second, when you go back to your room after killing that monster, is that ghost from the "A Christmas Carol" movie starring Albert Finney as Scrooge called "Scrooge"?
I think it was a musical. My family watches it every year.

I would like to propose that the sentence "He flails wildly about as you punch him in the hump." is one of the funniest things I've ever read. Kudos to you guys.

I really hate to be a wet blanket, but as an actual type 1 diabetic, I'd just like to point out that too much insulin is the cause of a diabetic seizure, not at all the solution. The solution to hypoglycemia (what causes a seizure) is more sugar, and the way to deal with a seizure in progress is to give the person a glucagon shot, which is quite distinctive from an insulin shot.

You know that this story is supposed to be funny, full of teh jokes, and in no way educational or based on true events, right?

I was just glad I could spell "diabetes" correctly after years of hearing those commercials with Wilford Brimley.

so, is there a good ending? I think I went through all the choices and never saw one that I would think of as a happy ending for player.
