Mme Vertaigne stubbed out her cigarette in
- Mme Vertaigne stubbed out her cigarette in her mummified husband's palm. She exhaled the last of her grief and left the shed. Time to call the coroner. The autumn
- chill had kept the corpse of Msr. Vertaigne well preserved in the shed. The Coroner, Mr. Baines found no blemish on the body but thought it curious Mme. Vertaigne waited 8 weeks to
- tell me she was pregnant. So thoughtless of her. The whole time the Coroner had been wondering if she'd been eating too many finger sandwiches. Msr. Vertaigne couldn't have
- known how to deal with my getting a zombie pregnant. After all, it seemed like something straight out of a Poe story. The sandwiches weren't exactly helping.
- My pregnant zombie girlfriend was not blooming. I'd go to brush my teeth at night and find a finger in the basin. "Darling!" I'd call out, "I think this belongs to you." I'd sew it
- back on each time, and zombified as she was, she didn't even wince. Still I decided to buy her a pair of long black opera gloves to wear every day to keep her hands intact.
- She liked my gift very much, so much in fact that when she wore her gloves, she'd actually sing opera. "O terra addio!" she trilled, her zombie soprano rising dramatically
- Zombie Operas were the new solutions for limited budgets. All that was required was a nimble seamstress. The soprano's gloved hands were a particular problem. Fingers kept falling
- with a creepy sound on the glass floor. One time, one of the zombie singers lost his entire arm - while playing guitar. It was a very weird moment. The entire show stopped.
- They watched as the zombie attempted to pick up his own arm, only to lose balance and fall off the stage into someone's arms. Let's just say, a lot of people got bit that day.
