Sept 1983, Melody In The Box

On a warm California day I was baby sitting when suddenly I heard the worst sound of my life, the ice cream truck. The light tinkling tune will always haunt me. Of course the kids I was baby sitting went wild and were all like ‘take me to get ice cream or i’ll bite you’ and of course I didn’t want to like get rabies or something so I took them outside to get them some ice cream, of course I didn’t get any for myself cuz like, theres to many like calories and such. So anyways I was took the kids outside to see that it wasn’t a icecream truck at all, it was a lady in a big box, with holes in the bottom so that she can stick her legs through and move. She was playing one of those creepy jack in the box toys. You know where you twist the lever until the creepy clown thing pops out and scares the living shit out of you. I walked up to her, to see what like crazy thing was going on in her head. But when I asked her what she was doing all she said was ‘ I am rehursing a role’ and ran off into the woods. After seeing this video, I knew that I had seen Melody Malone.
