SELECT YOUR DESTINY BOOK #9 - HAUNTED MANSION MADNESS!

"Hey, HEY! HUNCHBACK! WAIT UP FER CHRIST'S SAKE!"

The Hunchback stops. Lit only by a tiny lantern he slowly turns, giving you time to think what a not very bright idea rushing up on him was.

"What... did you call me?"

"I... Uh...", you stammer cleverly, "It's just I don't know your name, so..."

"So you thought you'd use my deformity as a name? I don't know your name, did I just say 'Hi, shirt guy.' 'Cause your wearing a shirt."

You try to apologize, but it's hard to do on account of how nasty you feel about yourself just now.

"Did I call you 'Meat lips'? 'Cause as it happens, you have a pretty big set of meaty old lips there on your face."

Okay, you feel less nasty now.

"Like a couple big strips of liver on a butcher counter is what they look like, your lips. But do I use that as your name? No. No, I do not."

"Well, who are you?" You ask

"I'm your cousin Cletus. I got here late, Queez tells me the only place to sleep is in the secret room behind the armoire in your room. I tried not to wake you up, but I guess that kind of courtesy is lost on a person who hates the handicapped."

"No, I don't... I just," you stutter brilliantly, "Okay, so how did you know about this secret passage, and where are you going?"

It's not a secret anymore! HAR HAR!

"I gotta pee if it's any of your business which it isn't. And every rich old guy's mansion has a secret staircase and you always get in the same way. Aintchoo never read a Hardy Boys book? No, I guess you're too good for that. I guess a college boy liver lips like you prefers maybe the Blackberry to books. Hey, Hey, why don't you get on that internet, find a medical site, see what the hell is wrong with your gimongous, swollen lips, Angelina Jolie!"

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.
