"I Just Bought A...199-Year-Old...Dental Practice…That...I Now Know Has...Ghosts!... So...Here’s What I Am Going To Do!"...Part 9...




So,

this Dental Halloween Tale 

starts with a

a New Herman Ostrow USC 

Dental Graduate

buying a used Dental Building

on the outskirts of town,

sight unseen, for 'next to nothing,'

through a slick

salesman,

and he can't wait for an

Open House Appointment,

so he decides to

drive himself out

that night and he takes

the highway

and when he gets there,

the gate...

opens up

for him!


Now, a lot of strange things

happen to him,

like an image in a crystal ball

inviting him to meet

some of 

the 

others!



But all of a sudden, 

he get the creeps and 

decides to leave the place,

however, 

it is not that easy,

as he must evade 

many 'Things'

that seem to 

want him to stay...

...for good!



But, 

when he gets a chance to 

fly through a window


and leave through an open gate


it starts to thunder and 


pour down


Acid Rain!

 And it burns so much that

he has to go back inside

The Place!



Once inside again,

he goes down some halls

and passes by 

some rooms,

and a Nice Lady

invites him into


her room


just to talk


but he leaves there too!


Now, going down another

hallway,

he decides to

speed things up!



But a woman stops him 

and 

she wants to show him his 

Dental Operatory

and his first Dental

Patient, who promises to

sit very still!



Not liking this situation at all,

the Dentist scrams out of there


and bumps into 

a Woman who is also 

trying to leave the Place,


and then they both see an open door and



decide to

'make themselves scarce!'


Next, they 

pause for a minute

and

make a comforting fire

and plan to get back

to his car and find

Freedom again!



...



So,

as they relax and 

fall asleep,

the fire dies down


and the Dentist

dreams about 


natural scapes, and

after a while 

he wakes up

to a little snow,

but his friend that he just met 

is nowhere to be seen,

however,

there is one thing

to be seen,

which is definitely not welcoming,

and he starts to run, again,


for his life...but wait!...There's


another Threat!...

And as he tries to 


stay alive, he thinks of the times before


when he was scared in a forest...but now a wild dog


starts to approach!...



His legs are telling him

that they are too tired

to go on,

but

he is not listening to them,

and he

somehow

finds the stamina 


to carry on...but...wow...

the Dentist soon arrives 

at the place

from where he so desperately

tried to escape!...



Now, 

the gates immediately open...

...almost as invitingly

as before, 

and he hurries inside 

and shuts

the door and runs past the

'Personalized 

Crystal Ball,' and 

avoids several scary

hallways


and rooms


but there's this one room 

that seems 

to call out to him,

and 

as he enters,

a woman says to the Dentist,


"Please come in and relax!...You look like

you could use some rest!"


So, 

she blows out the candle


and continues, 

"You're safe with me...


...that's it!...

...Come a 

little closer..."


Then, as if under a trance, 

the weight of the Dentist's eyelids,

seems too heavy 


to Resist!




...



His eyelids now 

frictionlessly shut as if they were

well-oiled machines...

...and after a bit of solid slumber,

the Dentist internally envisions a bright 

and

sunny day...


Now his subconsciousness seems to 

look to the sky with 

reverence!


And he sleep-speaks to himself,

"I'm just a regular old Dentist

who just finished USC Dental School,

and I can't wait to open

my Practice and start helping People!"


With that, some cumulonimbus varieties

seem to

'go with the flow!'


Then he thinks, "But my journey

has not been easy...

...there have been many obstacles!"



Now, the clouds swirl with some 


more velocity!



"And some of those obstacles are

very...disconcerting...in 'real time,"

he acknowledges...



The cloud flow immediately gets more...


...chaotic!



"And sometimes I feel that

I might be in jeopardy!"



What's...

...this!...


"I have student loans to pay!"


Uh, oh


these look 


like


signs 


to...Oh No...heed!




The Clouds now seem to be...


...clouds no more!



At that moment, 

a force that doesn't seem 

friendly at all...


rears it massive, ugly, and uncertain head!



However, before it 

could bellow any dubious deep rumblings...

...the Dentist 


wakes up!


And he immediately

promises himself,

"I better get out of here before

anymore


Monsters come!"










This Halloween...

...May you have many...

...Smiles!...
