Chapter 42

Rufus climbed into his battered Dodge, started the engine, gave it a rev, nodded. Sounds good. He dropped it into gear, backed out of Eller’s Garage—and as he passed the outhouse, the radiator blew. Pssshhh!

Rufus stood on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop—then watched as the front of his car morphed into Old Faithful. Geysers of water shot out of the grill and began soaking the outhouse door.

“Well, don’t that take the rag off the bush,” Rufus said, banging on the steering wheel and putting the car into park.

He stared through the windshield and blinked to check his eyes. It looked like the outhouse was moving! No, not moving. Swelling up! Planks began to bow. The siding ballooned like the place was being pumped full of air.

He clicked open his door and was about to get out for a better look—when the outhouse exploded. Siding blew apart. Redwood planks went twisting through the sky. And the outhouse roof was launched straight up, twenty feet in the air.

And in its place, all that was left was a giant, undulating creeper vine.

Rufus sat there with his mouth hanging open and his face white as a ghost. “Jesus H,” he whispered, pressing back in his seat. Within seconds, flesh-ripping creeper arms dropped onto the Dart, thump-thump-thump– raced up the hood—and probed the windshield with boney tips the size of a man’s fingers.

Click, click, click.

“Jesus Holy Christ!” Rufus yelled, slamming his palm into the horn, calling for help.
