Description .....Our tour continues.

Leaving the macabre carnival of the animals behind,we find ourselves in a murky storeroom,stuffed to its dusty walls with wooden crates,rusting firearms and exotic statuary.Every few minutes,we pass a small,locked metal cage---which seems to shudder violently as if something were contained within---but what truly grabs our attention is a large shadow that seems to be darting through the room,much too fast for our eyes to follow.Is there something in this room following us?
It isn't long before our silent question is answered---reaching the far end of the storeroom,standing  upon an old steamer trunk,is the ghost of a man-eating lion!With feral eyes he observes our trek past his massive frame,his legs crouched in readiness,his low growl sounding an advance warning as if he could leap upon us at any moment.....!
Apparently satisfied with his intimidating growl,the phantom lion allows us safe passage out of his realm;our doombuggies take us,not only out of this haunted room,but out of the very building.A thick nighttime jungle surrounds us now,as our vehicles suddenly turn and reverse direction,taking us backwards down through a hillside graveyard,which seems to be devoid of inhabitants,askew tombstones before large holes in the ground.Before we can wonder what has become of the cemetery's occupants,the old voodoo woman has reappeared,wildly flailing her arms in a ritual to raise the dead.As we near level ground,we see them---corpses and cadavers freshly risen,slowly shuffling down and towards,what is for the moment,an unknown destination.The bizarre music we begin to hear tells us that their destination---and ours---is just ahead!

Our tour will continue.....

Me: *gasps at the phantom lion* Oh my. I hope it's not hostile.
