Halloween Safety Tips
1. - Don't assume the telephone calls are coming from
another house.
2. - When it appears that you have killed the monster,
NEVER check to see if it's really dead.
3. - Never read a book of demon summoning aloud, even as
a joke.
4. - Don't go into the basement to check the power when
the lights go out!
5. - If your children speak to you in Latin or any other language which
they should not know, shoot them immediately. It will save you a lot of
grief in the long run. However, it will probably take several rounds to
kill them, so be prepared. This also applies to kids who speak with
somebody else's voice.
6. - When you have the benefit of numbers, NEVER split
up and go it alone.
7. - Don't have sex. Especially if you've noticed a few
of your friends are missing!
8. - As a general rule, don't solve puzzles that open a
portal to Hell.
9. - Never stand in, on, or above a grave, tomb, or
crypt. This would apply to any other house of the
dead as well.
10. - If you're searching for something which caused a
loud noise and find out that it's just the cat, don't
stand their sighing with relief, GET THE HELL OUT!
11. - If appliances start operating by themselves, don't
check for short circuits; JUST GET OUT!
12. - Do not take ANYTHING from the dead.
13. - If you find a town which looks deserted, there's
probably a good reason for it. Don't stop and look
around.
14. - Don't fool with recombinant DNA technology unless
you're sure you know what you're doing.
15. - If you're running from the monster, expect to trip
or fall down at least twice, more if you are of the
female persuasion. Also note that, despite the fact
that you are running and the monster is merely ambling
along, it's still moving fast enough to catch up with
you.
16. - If your companions suddenly begin to exhibit uncharacteristic
behavior such as hissing, fascination for blood, glowing eyes,
increasing hairiness, and so on, kill them immediately.
17. - Stay away from certain geographical locations,
some of which are listed here: Amityville, Elm Street, Transylvania,
Nilbog (you're in trouble if you recognize this one), the Bermuda
Triangle, or any small town in Maine.
18. - If your car runs out of gas at night on a lonely
road, do not go to the nearby deserted-looking house to
phone for help. If you think that it is strange because
you thought you had 3/4 of a tank, shoot yourself
instead. You are going to die anyway, and will most
likely be eaten.
19. - Beware of strangers bearing strange tools. For
example: chainsaws, staple guns, hedge trimmers,
electric carving knives, combines, lawnmowers, butane
torches, soldering irons, band saws, or any devices
made from deceased companions.
20. - If you find that your house is built upon a
cemetery, now is the time to move in with the in-laws.
This also applies to houses that had previous
inhabitants who went mad or committed suicide or died
in some horrible fashion, or had inhabitants who
performed satanic practices in your house.
