Monster in  the Mist

https://tftljoey.blogspot.com/2024/05/monster-in-mistv2.html

Friday, 24 Oct, 1987- It was an unusually cold winter setting in for Boulder City. 20s in the daytime! Would it warm up in time for Halloween next weekend? Or would the kids have to wear heavy coats over their costumes? TV commercials and radio broadcasts are fueling the kids’ hype about the coming Halloween. Playful costumes (Freddy Krueger, Alf, Beetlejuice, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Gumby, and even California Raisins) line the store shelves along with bags of candy (Nerds, Skittles, and Sour-Patch-Kids came out years before). But there are also reports of mummy sightings around town. OK, what new movie is coming out now?

Local Loop designers have created a hot new line of toys: transforming robots to be manufactured right here in Boulder City! A boost to the job market and local economy. Hyped since 4 th -Of-July, in commercials, cartoon shows, and comic books, the kids have been saving to buy their own.  The radio advertises, “ Transmorphers , more than meets the eyes. Come on out to your local Toy Town store Thursday, 4pm, for the grand opening sale. The mayor will be there along with the toy creators themselves, Ellen Voss and Ursula Kerr . The good Convoys versus the evil Deceivers are waiting for you.” The kids have already set their eyes on their favorite: Eric (Mike): Convoy EXEKUTOR PROMO – black Saab Sedan.

The Haunted House.P1

The Haunted House.P1 (Eric, Ein, Ace, Evan, Lukas)   Friday, Oct 29, 1986 : Mrs. McFarlan (Social Studies teacher) called the class to order, “I gave you an assignment for today before your Halloween weekend. Halloween began as a religious event to remember the dead (saints, martyrs, and the faithfully departed). It has evolved into the trick-or-treating activities of today. But with the scariness we now try to portray, what is your ‘biggest fear’? Ace, if you’ll start us off…” Ace (Whitney): he said he worried about tearing his favorite KISS T-shirt, but deep down, not that he’d say out loud, Ace feared not being liked by the other kids. Eric (Mike): Mrs. McFarlan prompted him, “Speak up Eric, we can’t hear you.” Eric cleared his throat and squeaked out, “I said I’m afraid my Indian heritage will fade away and the Native American culture becomes another lost civilization . That’s why I visit my grampa who teaches me the old ways.” Someone...

Evan had played earlier via email exchange: his input integrated into the action.] Friday morning, Sept 12th The kids woke to the sight of their Convoy transmorphers destroyed. And found Deceiver robots attempting to plant control chips in Vicky’s parents. No sooner did they stop the transmorpher inserting a chip into her stepmother, Vicky’s father sprang out of bed, began exercising, then suddenly blurted, “Nice time for a run.” He dashed out of the room, down the stairs, and out the front door, turning west.

You’ll never believe what just happened at my uncle’s house!” 4am : Ein tried to decipher the chip implant recovered from the failed Deceiver insertion in Vicky’s stepmother’s neck. “Sorry guys, no can do.
