"I'm gonna go to the front door." "Alright." " We're closed." " Can I talk to you?" "Look sheriff says nothing happens as long as that thing is in here." " Oh, where's the sheriff?" " It's Sunday." "He's at the church." "It's a mystery, he's not very religious." "Listen, listen, uh... what time did you say the country coroner was coming to take the stake out?" "I didn't say nothing about nothing" "Um, uh, somebody said it was this week... somebody said." "But it wasn't me." "Can I, can I come in?" "Okay but look you can't touch anything." "It's all evidence." "Don't touch anything, you got it?" "It's my responsibility, and I don't want that guy yelling at me, I'm sick of it." " Hello." " Yeah, can I talk to the sheriff?" "Just a minute." "Bobby." "Telephone." "Yeah." "Hey Sheriff, I got that writer fella from out of town here at the office." "He doesn't know it's Sunday?" "Let me talk to him." "Hey Bobby, it's Hall Baltimore." "Yeah I couldn't get your story and the image of that poor dead girl out of my mind." " Really?" " Yes, I dreamt about it all night." "I'd like to write that book with you." "So, you're the sheriff and you make bat houses?" "Yes, and that's a bird house." "Totally different." "The bats and the birds know which is which." "Well normally I write about witchcraft but... what are vampires but witches that suck blood." "Entirely different." "We haven't really had one here." "There are no witches here, since as long as I can remember." "I could ask my sister." "She's older than Hades." "Welcome to my office." "Come on have a seat." "Imagine this." "Written by..." "Hall Baltimore and Bobby LaGrange." "Sweet." "Or, Hall Baltimore with an idea by Bobby LaGrange." "What do you mean an idea by?" "I got a hell of a lot more than an idea by." " I got a great character." " Yeah, who?" " Bobby LaGrange." " Calm` down." "Tell me what you got." "Shoot." "I call it, The Vampire Executions... and that will sell." "Not bad." "Go on." "The girl, who is she?" "is she just a runaway?" "Or just some 12 or 13 year old girl... that looks much older than she really is." "A Vagrant?" "Homeless?" " Why the wooden stake?" " Yeah, why?" "What, did that kill her?" "Or was it something that was added later?" "As a calling card for the real killer?" "You see, one end of it was worn smooth." "No fingerprints." "And then it was pressed into her... slowly." "Not jab, not stab." "Almost as if it was done by some kind of a machine." " A machine?" " Yeah." "That's why I call it The Vampire Executions." "I think she was killed by..." "an electric chair... for vampires." "An execution device, designed especially by and for vampires." "That's different..." "I wonder what that would look like." "Well I thought of that." "I made a model." " Ready?" " Ready" "How about that?" "Watch this." "You love it?" " How can I help you, Hall." " Hey Sam... remember you said if I come with a bulletproof idea, you'd give me an advance?" " Another advance." " Yeah, another, more." "A bulletproof idea comes with meat on the bone." "Not a lot of fog on the lake kind of crap, you know." "Yeah, well no one can mix metaphors quite like you Sam." "Here's the title, right... just listen The Vampire Executions." "vampires huh?" "And the main character get this..." "she's a little girl, a murdered girl." " Beautiful." " Beautiful, yeah, but she's just a kid." "No, no, no, I meant it's beautiful that she gets murdered." "But it's gotta have a lot of story." "Not a lot of style bullshit." "So tell me, how does this execution bit play out?" "I, I will find out." "I, I mean there's a great... great twist ending." "With heart." "With tons of heart, and I'll get you a complete outline in the morning." "But you gotta get me a check to Denise right away." "It's..." "I'm not kidding around, in fact... in fact the bank wire transfer would be better." " It's an emergency." " You know, you know, I'm thinking... it's not bulletproof." "But Hall Baltimore, master of witchcraft doing a vampire story..." " It's not bad." " Not bad at all." " If it's got an ending." " It's got an ending." " A bulletproof ending." " Bulletproof" "But Sam, you gotta tide my wife over okay?" "This is why I'm doing it alright?" "25 grand." "Okay, you know what I'm gonna do?" "I'm gonna wire Denise 10,000 dollars." "25." "That, that's great." "I really appreciate it." "As I said, I'm gonna wire Denise 10,000 dollars... but I need the outline in the morning or I'm gonna stop payment." " Sam?" " And no fog on the lake." "The night was... humid." "The night was... cloudy." "Fog." "A Mist... a mist descends... on the, on the lake Mini, Mini, Mini..." "Unwanipanuki." "The fog... floated out like" "Virginia's silent... dream." "No, that sucks." "The fog on the lake, the fog on the..." "The fog on the lake... just to torture Sam." "The scent floats out like... tears." "On a whale's ass?" "No." "The fog on the lake... the flake." "The straight edge razor." "The fog on the lake reminds me of my first wife." "It dissipated with time." "I'd lost my mind." "And now I have a lisp." "And now I'm suddenly turning into a black basketball player." "she... was..." "I/m typing as a gay basketball player from the sixties." "I like short shorts." "They are revealing, but it's comfortable." "It helps me jump." "There was no fog on the lake." "Swann Valley, sheriff's department." "Deputy Arbus speaking." "Arbus, the writer fella told me to go do a bunch of errands for him... well, he's not back here at his motel." "If you see him, tell him I'll wait another thirty minutes..." " and that's it..." "I got to go." " Alright, sheriff." "Why isn't the door locked, Arbus?" "Yeah, I left it open for you, PJ." "What happened to your diet?" "I was wondering when you were gonna get here with my hamburgers." "Feel like to playing some cards?" "sure, but when are you gonna pay up?" " Hey PJ, get the chord there would you." " Okay." "Don't ever walk into a morgue like that unannounced." " My heart can't handle it." " Sorry, I knocked." "Yeah, well, sheriff's over at your motel... and he said I'll only be here another thirty minutes." "Okay, thanks." "You owe me eighteen bucks, Arbus." "And Snooze, Ropopose, Sleep all..." "Night all... and you didn't put this on your list." "But I liked it." "I thought it was good." " Sleeping All." " Just what I needed." "Are we gonna work on this together?" "That is, what you said." "These are just goanna put you to sleep." "A chance to dream." " But you didn't read the label's." " Yes I did." "This is how you write?" "I thought that all city writers... just got sauced and then wrote in some kind of trance." "We do... we do but..." "There is a bulletproof ending out there and I know just the guy to get me there..." "Hey do you know a doctor in town that can give me prescription for a real... real one?" "I can't do that." "I'm a public official." "Twilight Lights." "By Bobby LaGrange." "Her skin was as fresh as cream, floating up from butter... under the lace negligee she liked to tease me with." "What keeps bringing you back here?" "I'm trying to solve a mystery." "I'm waiting for you, my friend." "Here, by her tomb." " After you." " Thank you." "And you are..." "Edgar Allan Poe, so... if you..." "How can I help?" "well..." "I don't have no ending." "Did you know the deacons once corresponded with me... concerning the technique of writing the ending first, and working backwards." "What did you need?" "Length?" "40 to 50 lines... per page." "200 page minimum." " Providence?" " Beauty." " The tone?" " They'll tell you." "These points being settled..." " shall we consider the reframe?" " I like it." "The bell tower is becoming to me." "A reframe must be brief." "In my own work, my most famous... it's lead me at once to a single word is the best, I'm afraid." "Never more." "The difficulty arose from the presumption that the word... must be monopolously be spoken by a human being." "then immediately arose the idea of a, a non reasoning creature capable of speech... and, then very naturally a parrot suggested itself." "But it was superseded forthwith immediately by a raven as equally... capable of speech, but as a bird of ill omen... infinitely more in keeping within intent to turn." "Is all this worth the price of that very good bottle of Irish whisky?" "Yes, of course, please continue..." "So, I asked myself... of all the melancholy topics... what according to the universal understanding of mankind is the most tragic?" "Death." "And when is this most tragic of melancholy topics... most poetical?" "When it most loosely alludes itself... to beauty." "The death therefore, of a beautiful girl ... is unquestionly the most poetical topic in the world." "Equally it is beyond there that the lips best suited for the topic are those of the man..." "who loved her." "So..." "I had to combine these two ideas... of the lover lamented his deceased mistress... and the raven' continuously using the word "Nevermore"" "in a poem of about 100 lines." "And "nevermore" of conclusion of each dancer... in a poem of melancholy tone." "How do you uh, find the ending?" "Your story is a tragedy." "It happened here at the old Chikering hotel where I once slept." "There were many children in the town." "Orphans some wares, the lost children." "And before long they were taking in to protection of pastor Alan Floyd." "He was a kindly man, loved his kids." "And everyone agreed that he took very good care of them." "He taught them cataclysm, and love of god and goodness." "And one night it happened." "One of his children was missing." "And that's when it came out." "Who isn't here?" "Peter?" "Where did... he didn't go across the lake." "Never ever go with the people across of the lake." "This is very important." "They are like, like, like... vermin." "Unclean, those, those fiends across the lake." "They are... the undead..." "They are vampires." "He took care of them and fed them." "Anointed them with the juices of spoilage, and sinkfoil and wolfsbane." "Anointed them against evil." " Turn your head." " Thank you..." "That's right." "There we go." "Make sure that you be nice and safe." "Someday you will wear..." "nylon stockings." "Where the hell is he?" "What are you doing with my mom's Ouija board?" " Have you ever seen one of these?" " What would you do with that?" "Innovation is what made the detective story and Charlie Chan entertaining." "Bobby LaGrange..." "is an innovative detective." "After you, sir." "That, ouija board." "We are in close proximity... to the deceased." "And the killer is probably still in the area." "Maybe we shouldn't be doing this in a morgue." "Dim the old lights..." "Hello." " Do we know you?" " Yes, it is." "You're doing that, I can feel you." " No I'm not" " Shut up!" "H..." "I..." "M." "Him." "It wants you" "Okay, do we know you?" "I... am... her." "I am." "Arbus, what was that?" "Ask her, let go watch." "Who killed you?" "B..." " Sheriff, you're doing that." "I can feel it." " Am not." "Who killed you?" "B..." "The evil kids at the lake." "They are evil." "And that Flamingo kid, he's the one that infects them." "He's a vampire." "Is he?" "'Yes'." "Come on, Arbus." "Keep your gun hidden." " You must be thirsty?" " Exactly" " I'm looking for Flamingo." " He is right back here." "When the sky is low and heavy, weighing as a lid... on the groaning spirit, falling prey to long boredom..." "Educated... you know BAUDELAIRE." "I know life man." "And I know the dreams of BAUDELAIRE." "and he from the horizon, the entire circle embracing... a dark day for our poor, even sadder than the nights." "I was hoping you could help me find this missing girl." "She is 12 or 13." "There are a lot of girls here." "You know, people are saying what's going on up here is... evil." "Are you worried about that?" "Look around you." "Does this look evil to you?" "Look at that moon." "It is beautiful." "I have been worried... it has been 3 days since we've seen her..." "She's just a little kid that I take care of, but I'm worried that something has happened to her." "Arbus." "Damn it." "You?" "You're out off uniform?" "And you're here on unofficial business." "What the hell are you doing here?" "he said you were okay with it." "He gave me 20 bucks." "Mr. Collaborator." "I thought we were a team, all the way through this investigation." "Bobby LaGrange does not like to be tricked." "Nor does he like being made a fool out of." "The famous Flamingo ... my... my... my the lady killer." "Arbus, arrest this murderer." "He's like that... either coming or going." "Or he's already gone." " Those are the real keys for the..." " These are them... ." " these are the official keys." " Wow, that's amazing." " This is to the clock tower?" " Yes, really?" "Hey give me, give me that." "Where are you going with that?" " Come on, just to see." " What?" "You don't want to go up there." "That's odd, I was up here yesterday... and I didn't have a hard time with this lock at all." "Yesterday?" "Uh, maybe it was last week." " It worked?" " Maybe it was the week before last." "Let me try." " Here." " Thanks." "What the hell was that?" "You tell me you ever notice anything like that when you were up here?" "You're not going up there." "This place is haunted." "Didn't you know that?" " What's that smell?" " The devil." "The devil lives up there." "You're gonna get it all over yourself." "I'm going out." "Goodbye." "come with us daddy..." "come with us daddy" "Help me, daddy..." "Come with us daddy." "Help me..." "Help me... daddy" " listen," " What is that?" "Are they evil?" "No." "No." "tell me who killed her?" "... tell me." "You say that you want to know..." "but do you?" " I want to know the truth." " There are consequences." "What choice do I have?" " Tell me all of the story." " As you wish, my friend." "There happened events just make you ashamed to remember." " Please." " Thank you, it's a sharp of knife." "I wanna know what the secret ingredient is." "We're going to have special lemonade for everybody." "That's right... good job." " This stuff stinks." " Careful." "You cut your finger." " Here you go, Alice." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "There you go." "Don't drink the lemonade, he put something in it." " No, stop." " No I would like `lemonade, Virginia" "Virginia, fine." "Enough, ... stand still." "Virginia, is being very..." "very sick." "And we're all going to have some lemonade, it's delicious and sweet... taste it." " Stay... stay... stay here." " What are you doing?" "Then he made a fateful decision." "Rather than have his children's souls be damned as vampires he drugged their lemonade, and slit their throats." "Can you make him stop?" "Do something..." "Death of beauty." "One child tried to save herself." "Virginia?" "You're playing our favorite game, huh?" "I'll find you." "Got you." "Virginia." "Virginia." "One way to God." "One, one, one way to God." "I got you." "Once the monster caught her he put her in chains in the vault." "No." "You must stop screaming." "I told you..." "God wants you to meet mom." "That's right. scream all what you want," "Even God can't hear you now." "One road, one way to God..." "One road, one way to God..." "All in Jesus name." "During the brightest days of her unparalleled beauty..." "I loved her... not as the living and breathing Virginia... but as the Virginia of the dream." "You see... dear friend... she was my young cousin... my beloved wife." "her name was Virginia." "but I gave her many names." "Lenor..." "Bernice." "The lady Gaia." "Madenasha." "Annabelle Lee." "Alianora." "I assume that I am your partner?" "..." "Open the door, wake up." "Wake up." " Open the door, Hall." " Alright, alright... hang on." " Wait 'til you see this." " What?" "I subscribed to "Writers Weekly."" "and this just in... says that you took a 10,000 dollar advance on a project called "The Vampire Executions."" "No, no... that was money for some old writes." "And that money already went to my wife." "that's a mistake." "But I was thinking, I do like "The Vampire Executions"... by Hall Baltimore and Bobby LaGrange." "give me my $5,000 dollar now." "There's not gonna be any money exchanged until we get to the story right?" " We gotta get to the end." " The end?" "The end?" "It's a who done it." "Like every other murder mystery." " Just let me wake up." " It comes to who did it." " Okay." " What's the matter with you?" " You're foregoing your greatest asset." " Yeah... what's that?" "Bobby LaGrange, the detective..." "You gotta take Bobby LaGrange and use him much more throughout the entire story... because he could solve the crime himself... clearly it's the work of a serial killer." "Someone wants to silence the girls, on the other side of the lake." "because, they fried a sick mind." "And then they sizzle them, because of some psyco hocus pocus condition... that condemns them to being the evil sluts that they are." "And that is what's in a sick mind." "You think so, Bobby?" "You think they're uh, they're evil sluts?" " whom?" " The young girls." "Shit yes, they're all into dark things... every one of them they worship death..." "and sex." "What do you think?" "Oh no you don't..." "No, not Bobby LaGrange..." "them." "Those devil worshiping whores on the other side of the loch." "Shit Yes, they are all in dark thing, every one of them." "They worship death and sex." "They were just too saucy for their own good." "You know, they have that white flash with the devil inside them." "That little spice you can't stop, thinking about." " It's not me." " It's not me." " It's them." " It's the... flash of the devil." "I saved their souls" "You... you don't touch me." "Do not touch me. tearing it out." " Old, old bastard."
