"Stop. I can't hear the TV."444Please respect copyright.PENANAKz3wNFDWkc
"Fine." I sigh.444Please respect copyright.PENANAxogiKRBQdp
Suddenly the news music plays and the news comes on.444Please respect copyright.PENANAVNHzAn5ndw
"Just yesterday two people were found dead in a building in Whitby, England. One was a woman, the other a man. Both were lying in a pool of blood. The woman ended up being Dr. Zoe Van Helsing. The man's identity we are not sure we should announce to the world. An open casket will be held for Dr. Helsing and the next day she will have a funeral and a burial. The man will just have an open casket and will be put in a tomb in the graveyard of Sighisoara, Transylvania. Here is a picture of Dr. Helsing and the man found."444Please respect copyright.PENANAnNzt1tHQUd
I look up right as soon as the pictures pop up and I gasp. I jump up. I pause the TV and run to the kitchen.444Please respect copyright.PENANA5lCnm8BnpD
"Mom! Mom!"444Please respect copyright.PENANA1STERM1ucO
She turns around and looks at me. "What? What is it?"444Please respect copyright.PENANAOFgCNJwBRN
I grab her arm and pull her into the living room. I point at the TV. "Look! Look! It's Count Dracula! That man found with Dr. Helsing is Count Dracula!"444Please respect copyright.PENANAy8olXamoC2
She sighs. "He's not real."444Please respect copyright.PENANAymmc4qf8zD
"You're not looking!"444Please respect copyright.PENANAmWo1Oc5jru
She sighs again and looks at the TV. She gasps. "Oh my God. That's not possible."444Please respect copyright.PENANAWzzpUpyG7n
Suddenly, her phone rings. She answers the phone and puts it on speaker phone. 444Please respect copyright.PENANAVS4BJYurtp
