SELECT YOUR DESTINY BOOK #9 - HAUNTED MANSION MADNESS!

"IT'S CHICKEN NOODLE, YOU FREAKISH BASTARD WHORE!" you shriek, hurling your still mostly-full bowl of soup at your animatronic antagonist. It catches him right between the eyes, drenching his face with broth. Suddenly, as your rage subsides, you realize that antagonizing a creature the size of your average vacation liner, animatronic or not, was probably a bad idea. "Falcor," you stammer, "I'm — look, I'm sorry about the soup, it's just — you know, it's been a rough day for me, what with my uncle dying and all, and... hey, are you OK?"

Put another dime in the jukebox baby!

You notice that Falcor's very quiet and still all of a sudden. Even his spastic blinking has stopped. "Hey? Hey Falcor?" Oh, great. He's shorted out. NOW how are you gonna get to the will reading? Just then, you notice something that smells like burning plastic...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Oh Sweet Christ on a Loveseat, he just burst into six-foot flames! Time to ditch this diner! OK, so you can't go out the way you came in, because he's still only partway thru the door. Out the fire exit, then! Wait, it won't open! Apparently Falcor's gigantic body is somehow blocking that from the outside! You're trapped in a blazing inferno! As you lie gasping for oxygen on the floor of the diner, you think to yourself, "At least I don't have to listen to any more of his stupid jokes..."

HOPEFULLY, THEY'LL GIVE YOU A SOUP-PROOF DRAGON NEXT TIME!
YOU DEAD!

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.
