A bit long - but . . . . . .
John Hill and his new wife Bev were vacationing in Europe.....as it happens, near Transylvania . They were driving in a rental car along a rather deserted highway. It was late and raining very hard. John could barely see the road in front of the car. Suddenly, the car skids out of control! John attempts to control the car, but to no avail! The car swerves and smashes into a tree.
Moments later, John shakes his head to clear the fog. Dazed, he looks over at the passenger seat and sees his wife unconscious, with her head bleeding! Despite the rain and unfamiliar countryside, John knows he has to get her medical assistance.
John carefully picks his wife up and begins trudging down the road. After a short while, he sees a light. He heads towards the light, which is coming from a large, old house. He approaches the door and knocks.
A minute passes. A small, hunched man opens the door. John immediately blurts, "Hello, my name is John Hill, and this is my wife Bev. We've been in a terrible accident, and my wife has been seriously hurt. Can I please use your phone?"
"I'm sorry," replied the hunchback, "but we don't have a phone. My master is a doctor; come in, and I will get him!"
John brings his wife in.
An older man comes down the stairs. "I'm afraid my assistant may have misled you. I am not a medical doctor; I am a scientist. However, it is many miles to the nearest clinic, and I have had a basic medical training. I will see what I can do. Igor, bring them down to the laboratory."
With that, Igor picks up Bev and carries her downstairs, with John following closely. Igor places Bev on a table in the lab. John collapses from exhaustion and his own injuries, so Igor places John on an adjoining table.
After a brief examination, Igor's master looks worried. "Things are serious, Igor. Prepare a transfusion." Igor and his master work feverishly, but to no avail. John and Bev Hill are no more.
The Hills' deaths upset Igor's master greatly. Wearily, he climbs the steps to his conservatory, which houses his grand piano. For it is here that he has always found solace. He begins to play, and a stirring, almost haunting melody fills the house.
Meanwhile, Igor is still in the lab tidying up. His eyes catch movement, and he notices the fingers on Bev's hand twitch, keeping time to the haunting piano music. Stunned, he watches as John's arm begins to rise, marking the beat! He is further amazed as Bev and John both sit up straight!
Unable to contain himself, he dashes up the stairs to the conservatory.
He bursts in and shouts to his master:
"Master, Master!......
Scroll down.
You’re gonna kill me!!!
