Day 12 of Creepmas

Free when you become a member of Rick St. Dennis facebook group
Spooky background for
Mischief Circus

It was the day before Creepmas Eve. All was fairly peaceful.. No unwanted visitors, no Creepmas movies. The Demon couch was out on the front porch just in case Nan tried to plump up the cushions.. Leigh had a go and got a nasty nip. Kevin was helping Fifi clear up the kitchen when he heard the strangest sounds. A loud scuffle and banging and shout-singing.
Deborah opened the front door and... carol singers! They were trying to drag the couch off the porch or at least to pull some boots out from under a cushion. It turns out that Polly had wanted a rest and had sat down when really she should have been singing with gusto. The couch had still been feeling a bit peckish and had nibbled her bum. She had obviously tasted quite nice because the next thing she knew was that she had become tangled in the springs and bones. Dan thought he should at least make a bit of money through the loss of one of his singers and started rattling his tin but all he ended up getting was a full card of forged Morrison's stamps (Without an M) (These really are getting forged...
we know 'cos ours were checked yesterday) By the time the rest of the ladies gathered at the bottom of the stairs Dan and his group had elbowed their way into the hall and refused to leave.
Donna had found a spell left over from Halloween and, after a quick chat with Val, it was decided to have a go at building a portal. Donna and Fiona read through the instructions and started measuring up the downstairs loo. Val was handing round eggnog with squash for those who arrived on broomsticks. When Donna and Fiona slipped back into the hall the portal puddle opened. Now all that was needed was to simply wait until the copious amounts of eggnog and juice did their job and the requests to use the 'powder room'.... the two witches queued  outside whilst Gary went in.
The door creaked open again.. the loo was empty. oh well.. Petra, who was so skinny that Kevin had seen more meat on a Butcher's pencil went on in whilst Cathy went back to see if the snakes needed 'to go'. She collected them and the rats and went back to the empty room. She stepped inside and locked the door. Once again the door opened and in went Kitty.
Now there were more singers in the loo than were in the living room. When the door opened after the final 'visitor' Kevin took a photo of the full portal and placed a notice on the door just to remind him not to enter till the spell wore off..

Day 11 of Creepmas

Background Alchemist
for Mischief Circus

It certainly had been an eventful week. Deborah managed to get connected to Kevin's Bloodbook  page and posted the message about a deadly Tinselitus outbreak in the area and the quarantine  orders. Hopefully it would prevent any more guests just turning up. Nan went through to the kitchen taking care not to squelch any of the finger rolls. Squiddy and Deborah collected Reg's eyeball ready for the afternoon game of cricket. Kevin was preparing lunch with Val's help. Those crunchy bone sandwiches which really tasted just like peanutbutter and tombstone crackers and knees. There was the problem that Fifi had used the same knife that she had used to scrape the zombie kid's flakes of skin off the floor. Now they didn't know if they were looking at finely sliced cheddar or bits of the kids..
There was a slithery sloopy sort of noise coming from the fireplace. A sucking sound rather like the sound wellies make when they walk through sewers. Something rather nasty was dripping onto the fire grate. Slow and stinky...  and Ploop! It landed on the hearth. Just because it had a Santa hat didn't make it Santa and certainly didn't make it a welcome newcommer. It slithered over to the coffee table and took a mincepie IN EACH HAND!!! Enough!! 
The ladies worked together. Fiona started to charm the creature by juggling party hats then threw the biggest mincepie, distracting him as Deborah ran to the toilet and collected the Reindeer loo rolls. She tied one end to a table and dipped and jumped as she wrapped the roll around some of the tentacles. Val was hitting him with the empty sherry bottles (making sure that they were empty first...) Nan and Leigh managed to position the couch as Susan leapt onto the creatures back, riding him straight up and over.. she jumped off just in time as the couch opened it's cushions and SNAP!! A bit of a chew, a rather loud burp and unfortunately a quite nasty, smelly..... you know what..... and all was quiet.

Day 10 of Creepmas

Background Abandoned for Mischief Circus
There was such a racket outside the living room window. By the time Kevin had clambered over the wreckage of the couch which was burping rather loudly and had reached the window he saw Butch peering back at him and behind Butch was the creepiest carousel. It was like the flamin' Dingles had set up for one of their weddings. But here the horses looked nothing like carousel rides. These looked more like nightmares. At least Butch had tried to be a bit festive but he had seen what had happened to Doris and he had decided to stay put in the garden. Kevin thought that someone should have asked permission to erect a carousel in his garden especially one whose creatures weren't as wooden as they should have been. A passing rabbit was scooped up and slowly crunched... just bits of fur was left decorating the snow. Patsy, Graham and Dennis (The zombie kids) came running down the stairs clamoring to get outside. As they sped through the hall Donna flung open the front door and the kids left Kevin's house without even pausing to say Thank You. Donna slammed the door behind them and everyone joined Kevin by the window waiting to see what happened when kids met carousel. Patsy  rammed the remains of Fifi's water bowl into the mechanism and the ride came to a shuddering stop. Dennis and Graham climbed on board the demonic creatures, cuddling their throats with sharpened fingers. Patsy leapt onto the last ride and held fast whilst she knocked the shards of the bowl away with her brothers arm (very kindly lent by Dennis)  The music started and the demons bucked. The kids hung on yelling Tally Ho! The carousel cracked as the demons broke away heading down the lane with the shrieking kids happily bumping into each other scattering forest folk as they passed by the lake.

Day 9 of Creepmas

for Mischief Circus
Freddy had just finished decorating his home. He had fairy lights and a jolly snowman, he was wearing his best Creepmas jumper complete with jingle bells and was looking for some new toilet rolls.. the ones with images of reindeer embossed for comfort. He was not amused when he saw what he thought was a drunk Creepmas tree hiding under a bush at the back of his house. Kevin had told Freddy that he was welcome to move into the outhouse at a fair rent... but wasn't prepared to share his home with uninvited guests. There was some strange black sparkly dust trailing after the tree and bits of tag and ribbon floating about.
Meanwhile, Wilbur had introduced everyone to Mr Egg (Looks a bit like a spoon) and Mr Nog (The thingy with all the legs sitting in the bowl) Val brightened up and started giving Doris and Nan bottles of rather chewy wine. Doris made herself comfy on the couch, strange that she hadn't noticed it before. It was really quite a lovely couch with a place for her glass and a plate ready for some savory nibbles. The pattern of the fabric was almost hypnotic, it really looked like the vines were moving. The cushions seemed to hug Doris as she wriggled a bit, sleepy with sherry and wine. Was the couch getting larger or was Doris relaxing just a little too much. As Doris stretched and turned to reach her glass her legs sank into such a comfortable weightless softness. Her back followed then her arms. She knew something was wrong when her head was cradled by the extra frou frou Creepmas throw and she was slowly and gently absorbed by the demon couch. Kevin had always hated the couch..a gift from his Auntie and had never sat on it. Now he thought what a great way to do a spot of recycling.

Kevin had thought of laying traps just outside his door. He had found some old mince-pies at the back of the pantry with some green smudges on the crusts (to give a bit of festive cheer). They were quite solid with sharp edges so they would make pretty good missiles if flung from the attic window. He also found a stow-a-way at the back of the pantry..cousin Wilbur. How on earth did he get in there? Wilbur had thought that as he was stirring a Christmas pudding that he would be made welcome. Oh No! Sharon ran at Wilbur with her lips pursed making 'kissing' sounds, her tinsel streaming behind 
her. Wilbur shrieked and sidestepped Sharon. He tried to run but a small parcel hung onto his leg so he ended up swinging his right leg out to counter balance the extra weight. This did not bode well. With the mixing bowl in one hand, and a feisty spoon in the other Wilbur ducked to miss the mistletoe and skidded on the eyeball which had finally fallen off the tree and was rolling towards where he had last seen Nan. Sharon was mid spell-cast. She had aimed it towards Wilbur but it hit the spoon which whacked Wilbur across the back of his hand. Startled Wilbur let go of the mixing bowl which flew up into the air, spun round twice and landed on Sharon's head. Sharon promptly vanished! Only her shoes were left in the middle of the hall. Smoke was drifting upwards from the toes... the shoes then just crumbled into dust. Sharon was no more.

Another flamin' knock at the bloomin' door. Kevin really just couldn't be bothered to open it so just yelled COME IN! The door swung open and there stood a chap with candles on his head.......    Terry felt immediately at home. No-one ever actually invited him to parties but he was always made welcome at Birthday parties... but just 8year old's Birthday parties. It didn't really make a difference that he hadn't actually been invited to this one. He had read about it on Bloodbook and thought it would be nice to catch up on all the news after Nan's rescue of the lake fishes. Suddenly there was the biggest... CRASH! The zombie kids had broken Fifi's water bowl. The tree had toppled over and was crushing the presents which finally burst their boxes and lay there.. no longer moving. Reg (The tree) had a fixed snarl where his mouth should be and a glazed eyeball hanging out. His reign of terror was over and Nan and Donna dragged him through the mayhem of what once was the kitchen and out the back door. They managed to get him as far as the outside loo and bundled him under a bush to be dealt with after Creepmas. They then nipped round to the front of the house and let themselves in. Sharon was shouting in the kitchen and the remaining fingers were walking all by themselves over the blood splattered kitchen floor. Val was trying to keep Lucy away from the sherry which didn't make much difference as Lucy had already done the rounds of the living room slurping up any drinks that had been left just lying around. Squiddy managed to climb in through the kitchen window (after Sharon had locked the back door) and hit the ground running.. she scooped up fingers as she crouched, taking the corner of the dining room like she was on wheels.

There is more news and trouble brewing Nan has managed to bundle a relative of Reg's into the cellar.. details of this are over at Dream in Darkness

Day 6 of Creepmas


by Rick St. Dennis
Background
for Mischief Circus

There was a knock on the door, then another and another. Kevin wondered what would happen if he didn't open it. He is a polite Elf so he and Fifi flung open the door and there... three children. Something wasn't quite right. They weren't singing or handing over cookies. They just grunted 'appy Creepmas' and shuffled in wafting a bit of a strange aroma and a trail of skin flakes as they passed by Kevin. Fifi's whiskers twitched as she started hoovering up the flakes without a hoover if you know what I mean. Urgh!
Kevin knew that it wouldn't be a good idea to have the kids in the kitchen with Sharon as last time they met they freaked her out by following her everywhere she went... whispering mummy.. mummy.. mummmmyyyy.... so Leigh helped Kevin shoo them up to the attic playroom where it wouldn't show if anything dropped off them. Anyway a ghost cat lived up there and would sound the alarm if the kids started to go downstairs before Kevin was able to get rid of Sharon.
There was a Tap tap de tap tap.. tap tap on the door. Someone obviously thought they had come to a speak-easy and there was a code knock to be completed. Kevin stomped down the stairs passing another sherry to Lucy as he passed the living room. Best keep her sozzled, she was quieter that way.

Day 5 of Creepmas

for Mischief Circus

The presents had been left under the Christmas tree. Kevin did wonder whether or not it was a good idea to have a Real tree this year. He didn't know that trees could look so stroppy especially when each present was growling at the others and somehow managed to nip its branches. In fact.. before long there was ribbon flying all over the place as Reg (The tree) lifted his branches out of the way and bit down on the tags, ripping them off and shredding them scattering the bits over the rugs. Donna had arrived just in time..she was the only one to spot the yellow snowballs by Kevin's front door and brought the dripping basket into the house. Sharon heard the rumpus and marched out of the kitchen sliding on the fingers and cursing the ghouls who had assured her that they were hung for 21 days (just like Sainsbury's beef) and were well moldy therefore  shouldn't have been slippery at all. Sharon slid right into the tree which turned and bit her quite badly. She dripped blood all the way back into the kitchen muttering under her breath about axes.. dull axes. Donna and Fiona started pelting Reg with the snowballs with Reg retaliating with his baubles. Reg growled at Donna but she stood firm. Nan and Val joined her and together they pulled Reg's Santa hat down over his eyes. They knew, that like a chicken Reg would not move when he couldn't see.

Abandoned by Mischief Circus
Only the 4th Day and Kevin groaned as he answered the door yet again. It was o.k. to have visitors but he would have rather spread them throughout the year instead of having them just turn up all at the same day. But this time when he opened the door there was no-one there. Santa had come early.. there was just a pile of presents. A bit dingy looking but.. still.. presents were always nice to receive. Kevin looked at the tags and was surprised to see the names all scribbled out (In Cool Grey 5) and his name written rather scratchily in white gel pen over the top. Nan and Fiona arrived just as Kevin was about to pick up one of the presents and carried the rest of them in to the living room. Nan found an eyeball stuck to the top box and felt very uncomfortable as it winked and started flirting with her. Fiona took charge of the snakes .. keeping them away from Fifi.  Kevin hoped that whoever had left the presents had kept the receipt...he really had enough pets with Fifi and poor Betty...  he had no room for snakes.. Lucy had another sherry and complained that she felt she was being watched.

On the 3rd Day of Creepmas


by Rick St. Dennis
Background Abandoned 
for Mischief Circus


Kevin was tearing his hair out, nearly dislodging Fifi. He hadn't heard anything about a party, and certainly didn't want to have one in his own home.He hadn't expected Sharon to turn up (With or without those dratted monkeys) and she was always trying to help.. or to interfere depending on which way you looked at it. Leigh had arrived with Val on her 4x4 broomstick..(Thank goodness the message got through) they parked out in front of the house so Nan would see it and know that she wouldn't be alone helping Kevin. They tried the kitchen door.. it was unlocked! Not like Kevin at all.. he was usually quite security conscious. And there was Sharon. Kevin had decided it would be a good idea to keep her in the kitchen where she could take charge of the nibbles. He had made sure that the mince-eyes were already in tins in the cupboard and the knees and crackers couldn't be spoiled as they were already wrapped up. He only had to make the tadpole rolls and some of those party snacks.. finger food.. no, real fingers.
There was a very loud banging at the door. As Kevin slowly opened it it was suddenly dragged out of his hand and there was Lucy! She arrived in Christmas gear, martini garnished with a bloodshot eyeball in one hand and a rather tatty angel doll in the other. Oh Great! The last time Lucy was in the same room as Sharon sparks flew. Real sparks! Luckily there was loads of rooms in the house and if Sharon could be kept in the kitchen with Leigh and Lucy in the living room with Val they should have enough time to have a sweet sherry and a mince eye before they were sent on their way.
There was an odd sort of scratching on the hall window as if a branch were scraping back and forth. Kevin wanted to ignore it. He already had two more guests than he had ever had in his house at the same time. Enough was enough.

On the 2nd Day of Creepmas


by Rick St. Dennis
Background Alchemist for Mischief Circus

It's the same every year. Family and friends don't always get on. Sharon had arrived early, she had placed baubles on her hat and had added a slash of bright red lippy. She was ready to party.... but didn't know that it was 'The done thing' to arrive at a party a bit late and to make an entrance! Sharon was a bit miffed. She had left her flying monkeys at home..goodness knows they made such a mess at the last party. Kevin had complained about finding scat in the pot plants and Sharon had tried to follow them around with poop bags but couldn't be everywhere at the same time. Kevin decided to untie just one of the bats to take a message to Val and Leigh who have been living with the ghouls.. the message Kevin gave to the bat was ' Help needed, too many visitors' he hoped this time the message would get through... the message sent by bees with Burt lisping nearly added to the disaster at the lake. Kevin's dog Gerald seemed to have taken a liking to Sharon and kept nibbling her baubles and spitting out the wire bits whilst Sid (Sharon's snake) waited and watched for an unguarded moment to strike! Was that another knock on the door?

Kevin had survived Halloween. Fifi had finally dried her fur and of course it had gone frizzy. Betty who lived in Kevin's pocket had come off worse. She died the day Kevin was rescued from the lake. One of the ghouls was a part time taxidermist and he treated and stuffed Betty and arranged her in an almost natural position and stitched her into Kevin's front pocket. Kevin was feeling festive. He strung Creepmas lights outside his house underneath the bats. The bats were quite annoyed at this but stayed where they were after Kevin had tied their legs to the wires which held the lights in place. In fact.. the waving of their wings lent a somewhat cozy look to the place. It was agreed amongst the animals of the lake that a party should be held at Kevin's Pit.. of course no-one thought to ask Kevin if he minded. Kevin had just settled down to watch Dragons Den.. one contestant had just been barbequed and another was waiting to see if he had answered correctly when there was a loud knock on the door.

These are really pretty images and I found this one an absolute delight to colour. I printed her onto neenah and coloured her with promarkers and pencils. I then imported the coloured image into Craft Artist 2 where I removed the white surround and started playing with backgrounds. I decided to make it look like a journal layout. I have a kit with blank white pages and I started adding papers and stitching and little embellishments and ended up with the look of a memory album page.
