Blue Moon Tavern

Well good evening and welcome... to the BLUE MOON TAVERN what in the world are you doing out on this dreadful stormy night here sit by the fire while I bring you somethin’ strong to drink... I usually don't take in strangers but I have a room upstairs if you'd like to stay here tonight... he said thank you but I wouldn't want to intrude, I said nonsense I could use the company to tell you the truth, pouring myself a strong drink, he said you're too kind, for all you know I could be a mass murderer, a demon in disguise, sitting down next to him I said well I guess I'd be **** out of luck huh but I can sense these things and you don't give off that vibe... We sat there talking for hours and hours, drinking ourselves higher than kites, we laughed and laughed 'til we cried then he got really quiet and looked at me with these cold dark piercing eyes, he said thank you for your hospitality but I guess you were wrong about me, I’ve been watching you and I came here with the intentions of killing you tonight and before I could utter a word, I felt the cold hard steel of his knife quickly thrusted deep into my heart and the smile on his face was the last thing I saw before everything went dark!
