          (A teenage girl comes out, she has blood dripping off her hand and she is laughing)

I love this store!  It's all about Halloween and I love Halloween!  It's always been my favorite time of year!  There's all the costumes and there's lots of gruesome stuff, and most of all.....blood!  I love blood!  

          (She pulls a knife from a pocket)

And here's the best part....see this?  It is my own personal happy toy!  With it, I can make myself happy.
          (She pulls the knife across an arm)
I can cut myself and everyone thinks it's fake!
         (She takes a finger, dips it in the blood and sucks it)
Mmm!  So good!
         (She puts her hand to an ear)
 Ooh, I can hear everyone saying I'm crazy, but so what?  I don't care!  Not one of you cares that I am in pain!  That I just hate my life!  That my life is filled with horrible things!  That I wish that I was another person, that I wish I was back in my old home, in my old life! 

When I am sad, when I am in pain, the only thing that makes me feel better.....is this....

         (She puts the knife to her arm and we see red, which she now puts in her mouth)

Mmmmm....I love the taste of my own blood!

          (She jumps up and down)

I get it!  I am my own vampire!  Perfect!  I could have a movie about me - everyone loves vampires! I can be popular!  
 
I think that's why everyone loves vampires, because, if all of you were honest, really honest....(She's quiet)......They would admit....that you would like to do the same thing....but you don't have the guts!

          (She turns to leave, stops, looks back)

Happy Halloween!
