Peepers Pitt--Peculiar Pedestrian



Peepers’ Pitt--New Crew Askew pt. 5 of 20: “Peculiar Pedestrian”

Charlie Decaye felt sad. What if he never got home? Despite appearances, the Pumpkin-Headed Horror was anything but. He was a kind man who had duties to his job and his family. He was a kind man…but with a mean face. His horrifying looks are what had influenced Mr. Peepers to bring Decaye to his Peepers' Pitt in the first place. The plan had been to use Decaye to stir up fear in the others already there, but Mr. Peepers had misjudged Decaye‘s nature, as so many in the Peepers' Pitt were doing. It was something Decaye was unaccustomed to, since having a “pumpkin” head in his universe was evidently normal.

Decaye stood on the sand of the faux desert, and turned to look back at the EMT Man. The mental patient was bouncing up and down again, switching from crouching to standing. Each time he stood, he stretched out his arms, then pulled them back and yelled out with an “awooo.” Decaye couldn’t figure him out, and didn’t intend to. He started walking off, hoping to distance himself from the insane man. Decaye soon noticed that the EMT Man was following him! Every five steps that Decaye took, the EMT man took two! Decaye was amazed that the EMT Man was now suddenly taking notice of his actions, unlike before, when all attempts at conversation or a single glance had failed. Clearly, there was more to this EMT Man than anyone could suspect! So Decaye walked onward, with the EMT Man as a peculiar pedestrian, behind.

Mr. Peepers, invisible to Decaye and the EMT Man, floated nearby, and flashed a smile!
