A man was walking home alone late one foggy night when, from behind him, he heard:
BUMP...
BUMP...
BUMP...
Walking faster, he looked back and through the fog he made out the image of an upright casket banging its way down the middle of the street toward him.
BUMP...
BUMP...
BUMP...
Terrified, the man began running toward his home, the casket bouncing quickly behind him
FASTER...
FASTER...
BUMP...
BUMP...
BUMP...
He ran to his door, fumbled with his keys, opened the door, rushed in and slammed and locked the door behind him.
Nevetheless, the casket crashed through his door, with the lid of the casket clapping
Clappity-BUMP...
Clappity-BUMP...
Clappity-BUMP...
The terrified man rushed upstairs to the bathroom and locked himself in. His heart was pounding; his head was reeling; his breathing was reduced to sobbing gasps.
With a loud CRASH the casket broke through the door.
It BUMPED and Clapped toward him.
The man screamed and reached for something........anything......but all he could grab was a bottle of cough syrup!
Desperate, he threw the cough syrup at the casket...
and, to his ultimate disbelief...
The coffin stopped!
