THERE WAS ONCE A MAN WHO ALWAYS WAS LOOKING FOR A
GOOD TIME; A GOOD PARTY. ONE NIGHT HE WAS DRUNK AND
HE HEARD MUSIC AND VOICES IN THE WOODS. IT SOUNDED FUN
SO HE WANTED TO GO TO THIS PARTY. SO, HE WALKED, AND
WALKED, AND WALKED, UNTIL HE FOUND THE HOUSE WHERE THE MUSIC
WAS COMING FROM. HE ENTERED THE HOUSE AND JOINED THE
PARTY. HE TALKED TO PEOPLE, AND SOON HE BEGAN TO
RECOGNIZE PEOPLE. HE SAID, "I KNOW HIM. WAIT, HE'S SUPPOSED
TO BE DEAD. IT CAN'T BE HIM." HE BEGAN TO REALIZE
THAT ALL THE PEOPLE AT THE PARTY WERE PEOPLE WHO HAD DIED.
