Horror 101

Horror-101 is a story about three young college students that attend the University of Colorado in Boulder. Montoya, Johnson and Peterson share a house and The English Major of the house, Lorenzo Montoya has come up with a bi-monthly scary story contest that he has named, “Horror-101,” in which the three of them compete to win a very highly coveted prize. Lorenzo Montoya begins the night with a story he calls, Till Death Do We Part? It is a story of a man that married for money, but he must get rid of his rich nagging wife, Kathleen and her little dog too. The plan goes perfectly except for one little detail. Next, Johnson tells a story he Calls, Big Kahuna and Turtle. This is a totally tubular tale of a beach bum surfer everyone calls, the “Big Kahuna”, who inherits a fortune, a mansion and a huge responsibility when his “crazy recluse uncle” dies. Big Kahuna takes his long-time friend, the “Extraordinarily Exceptional Zen Master of the Waves,” Turtle with him to the mansion and together they become the first beach bum Vampire slayer’s in history. The final story is told by Peterson, who spins a terribly grim tale of two down and out homeless alcoholics, Monkey and Ghost Rider, who live in a tent by the Platte River. When a snow storm dubbed the “Storm of the Century,” by the National Weather Service traps them in their tent with four feet of snow and 15 below zero temperatures things get ugly and frostbite sets in. They don’t have a lot of food, but they have Rock and Roll and plenty of alcohol. Peterson Calls his story, “Breakfast in Bed.” So, take your seat’s everyone and pay attention, because it’s time for Horror-101! R. F. Sorrell
