>>Bob Hill and his new wife Betty were vacationing in Europe... as it happens,
>>near Transylvania . They were driving in a rental car along a rather deserted
>>highway. It was late and raining very hard. Bob could barely see the road in
>>front of the car. Suddenly the car skids out of control! Bob attempts to
>>control the car, but to no avail! The car swerves and smashes into a tree.
>>>
>>>
>>>Moments later, Bob shakes his head to clear the fog. Dazed, he looks over at
>>>the passenger seat and sees his wife unconscious, with her head bleeding!
>>>Despite the rain and unfamiliar countryside, Bob knows he has to get her
>>>medical assistance.
>>>
>>>
>>>Bob carefully picks his wife up and begins trudging down the road. After a
>>>short while, he sees a light. He heads towards the light, which is coming
>>>from a large, old house. He approaches the door and knocks.
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>A minute passes. A small, hunched man opens the door. Bob immediately
>>>blurts, "Hello, my name is Bob Hill , and this is my wife Betty . We've been
>>>in a terrible accident, and my wife has been seriously hurt. Can I please
>>>use your phone?"
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>"I'm sorry," replied the hunchback, "but we don't have a phone. My master is
>>>a doctor; come in and I will get him!"
>>>Bob brings his wife in.
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>An older man comes down the stairs. "I'm afraid my assistant may have misled
>>>you. I am not a medical doctor; I am a scientist... However, it is many
>>>miles to the nearest clinic, and I have had a basic medical training. I will
>>>see what I can do. Igor , bring them down to the laboratory"
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>With that, Igor picks up Betty and carries her downstairs, with Bob
>>>following closely. Igor places Betty on a table in the lab. Bob collapses
>>>from exhaustion and his own injuries, so Igor places Bob on an adjoining
>>>table.
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>After a brief examination, Igor's master looks worried. "Things are serious,
>>>Igor . Prepare a transfusion..." Igor and his master work feverishly, but to
>>>no avail. Bob and Betty Hill are no more.
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>The Hills' deaths upset Igor's master greatly. Wearily, he climbs the steps
>>>to his conservatory, which houses his grand piano. For it is here that he
>>>has always found solace. He begins to play, and a stirring, almost haunting
>>>melody fills the house.
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>Meanwhile, Igor is still in the lab tidying up. His eyes catch movement, and
>>>he notices the fingers on Betty's hand twitch, keeping time to the haunting
>>>piano music.. Stunned, he watches as Bob's arm begins to rise, marking the
>>>beat! He is further amazed as Betty and Bob both sit up straight!
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>Unable to contain himself, he dashes up the stairs to the conservatory.
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>He bursts in and shouts to his master:
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>"Master, Master! ..... The Hills are alive with the sound of music!"
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>(I am soooooo sorry...... But you really should've seen that coming)
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>What did you expect.....it's free from a demented friend on the Internet
>>
>> Happy Halloween!
>>
>>
>>
I call this retaliation on a few other BASFAns.
