[Warning mentioned of death]

They've just been eating said Lydia I don't know what

Some animal George Hadley put his hand above his eyes to block off the burning light and looked carefully a zebra or baby giraffe maybe

Are you sure his wife sounded strangely nervous

No it's a little late to be sure he said with a laugh nothing over there I can see but cleaned bone and the vultures dropping for what's left

Did you hear a scream she asked

No

About a min ago

Sorry no

The lions were coming and again George Hadley was filled with respect for the brilliant mind tja5 had come up with the idea for this room a wonder of efficiency selling for an unbelievably low price every home should have one oh occasionally they frightened you with their realism they made you jump gave you a scare but most of the time they fun for everyone not only your son and daughter but for yourself when you felt like a quick trip to a foreign land a quick change of scenery well here it is

And here were the lions now 15 feet away they looked so real so powerful and shockingly real that you could feel the hairs stand up on the back of your neck your mouth filled with the dusty smell of their heated fur the yellow of the lions and summer grass was in your eyes like a picture in an expensive French wall hanging and there was the sound of the lions quickly heavy breaths in the silent mid day sun and the smell of meat from their dripping mouths

The lions stood looking at George and Lydia Hadley with terrible green-yellow eyes watch out! Scream Lydia

The lions came running at them Lydia turned suddenly and ran without thinking George ran after her outside the hall after they had closed the door quickly and noisily behind them he was laughing while she was crying and they both stood shocked at the other reaction

George

Lydia oh my poor sweet Lydia

They almost got us

Walls remember: glass walls that's all they are oh they look real I must admit- Africa in your living room but it's all created from 3 dimensional color film behind glass screens and the machines that deliver the smell and sounds to go with the scenery here's my handkerchief

I'm so afraid she came to him and put her body against him and cried as he held her did you see did you feel it's to real

Now Lydia
