Hardly has the wrestling match on the bed got underway than in bursts Patty with her tale of woe and, simultaneously, the phone rings. Meanwhile, tormented by Kim’s boobs “rising, full and round as melons out of the bodice of her negligee”, Chill finally succumbs and climbs out of his pyjamas. Wife Patty catches him in the act before things can get out of hand. Tom Brunswick, big-shot TV producer by day, alcoholic dexy-guzzler by night, has been drunkenly necking teenage older- man fetishist Ginger Branson. Sex, you’ll be delighted to hear, has reared its ugly head.

The gardener lets slip that there is a Grandier family crypt cunningly concealed in the trees over yonder, and begs our phantom fighter to stay away from it. He visits out Moses at his junkyard hovel to gently grill him. As yet, his telepathic, sometimes other-half Laura Littlefawn hasn’t put in an appearance – quite a result, as it happens, with gorgeous Kim Micheals, Bob’s administrative assistant, all over him like a rash.Ĭhill has already worked out that the cause of all these faintings and comas is some form of evil spirit. Luckily, this happens on the eve of her sixteenth birthday and Chill has been invited along by her dad. She immediately falls into a coma which her GP, Dr. Patty Brunswick keels over every time she turns around to look at the Grandier mansion (so why look?) and after yet another turn, Moses Petitjean, the gardener who the Brunswicks inherited with house, flips out, points at Patty’s daughter Joan and accuses her of knowing what’s going on.

Russell “Chill” Chillders adventures and up until now its done exactly what it says on the cover. Psychic Investigator Russell Chillders had come to attend a birthday party he stayed to perform an exorcism … And as Joan ‘slept’, a terrible creeping slime worked its way into her I.V. The house became alternatively icy cold and stifling hot. Then their beautiful daughter Joan fell into a coma and they knew that the drama was just beginning. Whenever Patty looked at the building, the ground seemed to move and she felt giddy and faint. But their delight rapidly turned to fear, and then blind terror as the house took over their lives. Patty and Tom were delighted when they inherited the old mansion in Louisiana.
