Week 8 Another Halloween adventure

 Once a year the veil between the realm of the living and the realm of spirits weakens to the point that it is as thin as a sheet. During this time it is possible for some spirits who have unresolved issues to enter the realm of the living and take the form of their prior life. The most unadjusted of the spirits act as if they have never left the realm of the living. A year ago our brave adventures overcame the spirit of the bronze lady and her curses. This year four of them take on a new challenge from the spirit realm. 

(Disclaimer the following events are definitely not based on a true story and no one is to think that any of the following characters are based on real people. Unlikely similarities to a real person is coincidence and completely unintended)

This adventure starts when 3 of the crew decided not to wait for the guy who is always late and go get dinner somewhere in the phillies fan could watch the world series game. Well because it was the weekend the veil is the thinnest in Sleepy Hallow where the veil is thinner all year, the restaurant had no spots to sit at first so as one does they sat at the bar and waited for the table that was supposed to open in 15 minutes. 45 minutes latter and the enough seats finally opened up and the decision was made to just eat at the bar as he who is always late was not only 30 minutes away. Enjoying the highly alcoholic pumpkin beer and pizza this seemed like it was going to be a perfectly normal night. 

Obviously my dear reader, if it was a perfectly normal night we wouldn’t have a story and I would be writing about how Steve was able to get an essentially meaningless TD by Higgans with 6 minutes in the game on Monday to put him ahead of Chris, after he scored 0 points the first 54 minutes of the game. Fortunately for us all we have some new characters that entered through the door. As our crew was enjoying the first two pizzas the fourth member of this crew walked in just in time to enjoy the last two slices. (Full disclosure the pizza was good but it was on the small side, seen by 4 people eating 5 pizzas) With our crew intact the spirits around them decided it was time to have some fun with those that braved the curse of the bronze lady one year before.  

The first spirit was a particular Brit who was visiting Sleepy Hallow for Halloween, not that he told our brave adventures that the reason for his visit was because it was the only place he could get through early. Dameon Ravencroft was a decent man in life who had the dream of being a true actor. Thinking he would follow the path of the more famous Ravencroft actors he set off to get famous the best way possible for a english actor in the early oughts. Try to get on Game of Thrones, with his cousin Josh there he thought that he was moments from his big break, Unfortunately, D+D didn’t see the potential and sent him away only for him to turn up as a background actor in a few BCC shows. Not wanting to continue living as a g list british actor he turned to the one type of film that he could make it up to a C list star, adult movie making. After a rough start he was able to quickly transition into the British 2nd favorite type of adult movies, Sleeping with a former colony man’s wife. Unfortunately, for him he took his job home with him one day while with an Indian woman her husband came rushing in and killed them both. A great acting career ended so soon.

So our new friend Dameon has little work as one word of his British speech as one of the still kind of newly weds interested in what he was to say. Of course newly wed number 2 has to comment that if he did that, well what would happen is too graphic for this family friendly blogger. It would be similar to what happen To BIG DICK Swinggin who fell victim to the offensive explosion of Baby Daddies and the new big three of CMC, Kamara and Foreman. Well has Dameon decided to try and make new friends talking about normal British stuff like how most Americans are mean but these 4 and how he has an awesome hydra tattoo another couple  enters the scene.

Other Rich and Cecilia were an interesting couple, one 42 and the other 27, they randomly met on the street in NYC when the younger was a mere 23 years old. The fates would interlock this difunctional couple for many reason but mainly because they hate many of the same groups of people. Those groups my dear readers I leave up to you but I’ll just say that they likely would avoid Los Managerios grand opening after the remodel just like they avoid winning taking the 124-57 loss this week. They lived together in the city for several years before moving out to the suburbs, unfortunately for them a tragic accident involving white sauce occured as they were about to move into their new place and they never made it. 

 Seeing that Dameon had some fresh ink on his forearm they interjected to tell the story of how they got tattoos on their first date. An octopus on his leg and a heart on her rib cage. Well other Rich and he who is always late have some great dog whistling banter until he drops a bomb. Cecolia, the seemingly nice icelandic girl, was actually Hitler reincarnated. Well he who is always late loves this and decides to make new friends. Because this is definitely a work of fiction and in no way true Dameon pulls out a photo of his grandfather for the newly weds and shows them how he was part of the nazi army. He died trying to defuse a bomb or something I think. THere was some hope that it was him trying to save jews but this isn’t a fairly tale. 

As Other Rich and Ceclcia have seemingly met a new best friend, something they could never achieve in the city where quick to establish that they were going to follow our crew of adventures to the end of the world if they could. So after and interesting back and forth on where to go next it was decided that the next stop would be down the street. Before embarking on the next leg of the trip Dameon had some chaos to cause as he tried his shot at reliving his former job. Asking the young newly wed if she liked her drink first and that it appears she didn’t and needed another one. Well not to have his night end on a low note decided to ask if she was happy in her marriage of just over 1 year. You know what they say it is all down hill after the first year. (Well that’s what Dameon told me) Just like Dan season has been downhill since he took over 1st place in his division, losing another tough match this week 132-101. Guy can’t catch a break. 

Leaving the bar was not a simple task despite Rich making jokes that he was looking to do thrill kills other Rich and Cecilia were happy to hitch a ride with him to the next location. They assumed it was going to be Dameon but you never really know. Like Brendan murdering Doug’s shot at the 2 seed this week in the classic Brendan low scoring battle, everyone assumed Dougs high flying WR would get him over the hump but they did not this week. Dameon was not done and wanted to see if the husband agreed with the status of their marriage and then invited the Phillies fan to come to the UK some time and visit. That’s not happening. Before the exit there was some talk of going to the apartment to change into costumes but there was great worry Rich would take other Rich and Cecilia back to the apartment. Rich does have a brain and dropped them off at the bar slightly before the rest arrived. World series on the TV overpriced beer secured one person happy. The replacements are happy we didn’t ditch them and other Rich was ready to show off his dance moves.

Now he danced up a storm throwing his hat all over the place. Like Roger was dancing all over the place after last week when he moved into first place in the league for the first time ever. That lasted exactly one week as Ryan beat Roger sending him back to the 2nd slot in his division. Much like Roger lost out on his top spot other Rich lost Cecilia to first Rich and some old guy in the corner. Other Rich and Cecilia disappear to renact the murder suicide that sent them to the spirit realm as they were always destined to do.
