Scene 4

The scene opens showing the pharmacist’s office once again. Thunder booms overhead and the sound of rain is heard. Arthur storms in.

Pharmacist: Why Arthur…

Arthur: Would someone in this town please, pray tell me. What madness is happening in 34th Street?

Pharmacist: Please sit down and let me clean that for you it gets infected. Offers a chair

Arthur sits down and the pharmacist starts cleaning his would.

Arthur: Flinches Well, what is happening?

Pharmacist: Sometimes, when folk leave, they’re hardly gone. In this case, most of them, if not all, are locked in the asylum on 34th Street and hoping to wreck havoc on this little town.

Arthur: Are you perhaps saying that there are ghosts in this town, Mark?

Pharmacist: That is exactly what I’m saying. You don’t know who or what might be working for you Arthur, in this town.

A long pause. The pharmacist continues to clean the wound, with Arthur flinching every now and then. Arthur slowly speaks again.

Arthur: Or who might be dressing your wound…

Arthur stands up quickly, shocked. The pharmacist freezes for a moment, before a sadistic smile creeps onto his face. A small chorus of “Fourteen…fourteen…fourteen” is heard, and seven mangled, disgusting zombies come into the scene. They converge, laughing hysterically, on a screaming Arthur, and his scream is the last thing heard, before the curtains close.

The End.
