If you happen to end up in a Halloween or horror movie, it
is worthwhile to remember a few simple rules to help keep yourself healthy, happy and safe (in other words, not dead).
1 - When it appears that you have killed the monster,
NEVER check to see if it's really dead.
2 - Never read a book of demon summoning aloud, even as a
joke.
3 - Do not search the basement, especially if the power
has gone out.
4 - 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.
5 - When you have the benefit of numbers, NEVER pair off
or go alone. Hit the first person that says, "Let's split
up."
6 - As a general rule, don't solve puzzles that open
portals to Hell. It's just not that fun.
7 - Never stand in, on, or above a grave, tomb, or crypt.
This would apply to any other house of the dead as well.
8 - If you're searching for something which caused a loud
noise and find out that it's just the cat, GET OUT OF
THERE ANYWAY!
9 - If appliances start operating by themselves, do not
check for short circuits; just get out.
10 - Do not take ANYTHING from the dead.
11 - If you find a town which looks deserted, there's
probably a good reason for it. Don't stop and look around.
12 - Don't fool with recombining DNA technology unless
you're sure you know what you're doing.
13 - If you're running from the monster, expect to trip or
fall down at least twice, more if you are female. Also
note that, despite the fact that you are running and the monster is merely shambling along, it's still moving fast enough to catch up with you.
14 - 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.
15 - 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), anywhere in Texas where chain saws are sold,
the Bermuda Triangle, or any small town in Maine.
16 - 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 you ran
out of gas because you thought you had most of a tank,
shoot yourself instead. You are going to die anyway, and
most likely be eaten.
17 - Beware of strangers bearing tools. For example: chain saws, staple guns, hedge trimmers, electric carving knives, combines, lawn mowers, butane torches, soldering irons, band saws, or any devices made from deceased companions.
18 - 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.
19 - Dress appropriately. When investigating a noise
downstairs in an old house, women should not wear a flimsy negligee. And carry a flashlight, not a candle. Make that two flashlights!
20 - Do not mention the names of demons around open
flames, as these can flare suddenly. Be especially careful
of fireplaces in this regard.
21 - Do not go looking for witches in the Maryland
countryside.
