this is not based on any horror comic but one out of two original stories for this story, however it does have some elements of a 'tales from the crypt story' can you guess which one?
well anyway here's
THE FEAST
times were tough for lifty and his brother shifty. The two were in poverty and could barely afford anything, so to make ends meet they resorted to robbing other people in their town. but they always get caught and get imprisoned.
but this time, things were completely different.
one night the duo noticed a moving van come across their line of vision, curious, they decided to see who the new guy was. He came out of the car, and it turned out to be Vlad, "pleased to meet you, I'm Vlad, I just moved in overnight."
"I'm lifty and this is my brother shifty", he said introducing himself and his brother. The three talked for a while until night when the brothers went back to their 'home'. while Vlad proceeded to take a walk in the middle of the night.
the next few days were normal, until one day the brothers were looking at the newspapers they managed to steal, what the headlines said shocked them
STRANGE DEATHS AND DISAPPEARANCES PLAGE TOWN
PEOPLE BELIEVE IT TO BE WORK OF A VAMPIRE
MEG GRIFFIN STILL LOOKS TERRIBLE IN PICTURES
and then an ad caught their attention "$1,00,000 REWARD FOR PICTURE OF MURDERER" this gave lifty an idea. "If we get a picture of the murderer, and send it to the authorities we'd be set."
"but how can we do that." shifty asked
"simple." Lifty answered, " We just need to kill someone and take the picture, making it look like someone else did it."
"but who would we kill, and who would we set up?"
"i think i know just the person"
that night, vlad returned from his walk and went to his house, where he was immediately stabbed with a knife. afterwards the duo proceeded to drag him to russell's house, bring him inside and drag him to russell's bedroom. then they grabbed a nearby camera and prepared to take a picture, but something was off. RUssells's body was seen on the camera... but vlad's wasn't. lifty proceed to try the old turn off turn on again method. but it still didn't work.
Suddenly they heard a hissing noise, they looked and saw something that made their blood freeze.
vlad was standing up... with his fangs bared. Russell got up from his bed, and showed his fangs two. meaning only one thing... they were vampires.
suddenly lifty shoved his brother into the room and looked at the door. shifty tried to open it, but it was no use.
lifty was out of the house when he heard his brother scream. but he didn't care if he wanted to live, he was just about to make it to the entrance, until Vlad somehow caught up to him and sunk his fangs into lifty's neck.
he came to, in front of a restaurant, and entered, brushing off the events as a dream, and sat down at a table, where someone immediately gave him some soup, he tried and it tasted strange "what kind of soup is this?"
"soup?, those are blood clots."
upon hearing this lifty spat out the blood soup. making the waiter stare at him for a while and made his way over a certain and opened it. Behind it was a mirror which, despite there being a few people at tables, he was the only one with a reflection, everyone noticed and surrounded lifty with fangs showing.
lifty noticed his brother among the vampires "hello lifty"
"shifty what are you doing here"
"i'm one of them now '' shifty said "vlad explained everything to me. He made this restaurant as a way to serve his fellow vampires, but those like you never turn. so he kills them to keep his secret"
"well you can talk them out of this, right?"
Shifty showed clear hate towards his brother over what he did. "i'm sorry but like the others you'll have to be silenced. i can't save you"
immediately two vampires grabbed lifty's arms, next thing he knew he was tied up, and a tap was inserted into his jugular vein, while he was blacking out he heard vlad say
"nothing like the real stuff"
then, darkness
well that was quite a surprise vlad gave us, plus we now have three nightmare victims, but what do they mean?
