SELECT YOUR DESTINY BOOK #9 - HAUNTED MANSION MADNESS!

You decided to leave your belongings on the living room table. At least there, you can keep a close eye on them... that is, until you fall asleep. You've had a long day and you soon find yourself stretched out on the couch barely able to keep your eyelids open. Another fifteen minutes pass and nobody has disturbed your belongs and you feel pretty confident that your clothes and toiletries are going to be perfectly safe over there on the table. And you know what? They are. They are perfectly safe.

You, however, are not perfectly safe. That table was unfortunately placed directly on top of an old sacred Indian burial ground and by placing your belongings upon it, you have angered the gods by desecrating their sacred ground. You awaken to a loud crash and find the table has crumbled to pieces on the ground. "What the hell!?" you question aloud as you stare at the broken table. You walk over to pick up your belongings off of the pile of broken table wood, when the pieces of it start to move! Egads! The broken table is reforming itself somehow! But wait! It's not forming a table... it's becoming something almost... human-like!

Chief Wood'nHead!

Good gravy! The table has become a giant wooden Indian chief! How is this possible!? You cautiously walk over to the chief who just silently stares at you as he smears war paint across his face. "Um... hello?" you quiver. The chief still says nothing. Eventually you get sick of his old creaky wooden ass and tell him, "Look buddy, I don't really give a good god damn who you are. I've had a long day and need some sleep. I can't have you creaking around in here all night keeping me awake, so what say you go play cowboys and injuns somewhere else, mmmkay?"

Say! Let's make a tasty gumbo outta this here scalp! Who's with me?

Confident that you've made your point, you then turn your back to him and start to make your way back to the couch. All of a sudden, you grow weak in the knees as you feel a warm liquid running down your head. Ohhhhhh! I see what happened! You pissed off Old Chief Wood'nHead and he just scalped you! That warm liquid running down your head was your own blood. Way to go, chief!

YEAH YOU DIED... BUT THAT'S NO REASON TO LOSE YOUR HEAD OVER IT.
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.
