â  With this candle⌠I will set your mother on fire. â
â  Your cup will never be empty, for I will be your wine. â
â Â With this ring, I ask you to be mine. â
â  Please, thereâs been a mistake. Iâm not dead.  â
â Â If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain. Â â
â Â If you cut me with a knife, itâs still the same. â
â  I know her heart is beating, and I know that I am dead. â
â Â Isnât the view beautiful? It takes my breath away. Â â
â Â Iâve spent so long in the darkness, Iâd almost forgotten how beautiful the moonlight is. â
â Â I feel my heart is aching, though it doesnât beat itâs breaking. â
â  Yet the pain here that I feelâŚtry and tell me itâs not real. â
â Â I know that I am dead. It seems that I still have some tears to shed. â
â I was a bride. My dreams were taken from me.  â
â  This wedding cannot take place until he is properly prepared!  â
â  What are you doing here at this hour? You should be at home, prostrate with grief! â
â Â What a story it is. A tragic tale of romance, passion, and a murder most foul! â
â Â Why go up there when people are dying to get down here? â
â  This would stop his heart forever. Only then would he be free to give it to you. â
â Â If I hadnât just been sitting in it, I would say that youâve lost your mind! â
â You donât know me, but I used to live in your dead mother.. â
â Be gone, ye demons from Hell! Back to the void from whence you came! â
â We must abide by their rules! We are amongst the living. Â â
â Letâs turn on the juice and see what shakes loose. â
â Â Hey, these arenât my rules! Come to think of it, I donât have any rules! Â â
â Â Uh, I think, uh, theyâve had enough âexorciseâ for tonight. â
â Â Not so fast, round boy. Weâre gonna have some laughs! â
â Â And that, is why I wonât do two shows a night anymore babe, I wonât. Â â
â My whole life is a darkroom. Â â
â Donât mind her. Sheâs still upset that someone dropped a house on her sister. â
â I will go insane and I will take you with me! â
â I will live with you in this hellhole, but I must express myself. Â â
â Uh, what I meant is, can you be scary? â
â Oh! I didnât know you were asking me. Can I be scary? Â â
â Â I donât think we survived that crash. Â â
â Â Please, theyâre dead. Itâs a little late to be neurotic. â
â Well, how is it you see us and nobody else can? Â â
â Â Well, Iâve read through that handbook for the recently deceased. Â â
â It says: âlive people ignore the strange and unusual. I, myself, am strange and unusual. Â â
â I, myself, am strange and unusual. Â â
â Â I mean theyâre gone, split, out of here, afterlife kids, deceased-ahh. â
â I was just wondering could you help me get out of here? Â â
â Are you gross under there? Are you Night of the Living Dead under there? â
â You know, if I had seen a ghost at your age I would have been scared out of my wits. Â â
â Â You must believe me. it was a horseman, a dead one. Head less. Â â
â Â I think you have no heart. And I had a mind once to give you mine. â
â Villainy wears many masks, none so dangerous as the mask of virtue. â
â I have shed my tears for [ name ], and yet my heart is not broken. Â â
â Â Their heads were not found severed. Their heads were not found at all. â
â Heâs on the rampage, cutting off heads where he finds them. â
â Â Thatâs the problem; He was dead to begin with. Â â
â Â What happened to you? Where are your parents? Â â
â Â Itâs not heaven heâs from! Itâs straight from the stinking flames of hell! Â â
â The power of Satan is in him; I can feel it. Canât you? â
â He has been sent first to tempt you. But itâs not too late. â
â Sweetheart, you canât buy the necessities of life with cookies. â
â Â You see, before he came down here, it never snowed. â
â Â If he werenât up there now, I donât think it would be snowing. â
â I donât love you anymore. I just want you to go, okay? Just go. â
â Â Are you serious? Iâm gonna lose you to that? He isnât even human.. â
â Â Trust me, dearie, itâs gonna take a lot more than ale to wash that taste out. Â â
â We could have a life, us two. â
â Â Maybe not like I dreamed. Maybe not like you remember. But we could get by. Â â
â In these once familiar streets I feel⌠shadows⌠everywhere.  â
â You have a room over the shop, donât you? Â â
â Â Havenât been there in years. People think itâs haunted. â
â You see, years ago, something happened up there. Something not very nice. â
â I tried to stop her, but she wouldnât listen to me. Â â
â Â If I see your face again on this street, youâll rue the day you were born. â
â Â Youâll kill me, boy? Well here I stand! â
â Â Youâre barking mad! Killing a man what done ya no harm! â
â Donât worry no oneâll recognize you. Youâre safe now. Â â
â Iâve never had dreams. Only nightmares. Â â
â I wonât slay anything. I donât slay, so put it out of your mind. Â â
â Have you any idea why a raven is like a writing desk? â
â Some says you survive it, you need to be as mad as a hatter.  â
â Â There is a place, like no place on Earth. A land full of wonder, mystery and danger. â
â Â Why is it youâre always too small or too tall? Â â
â You used to be much more⌠muchier. Youâve lost your muchness.  â
â It looks like youâve run afoul of something with wicked claws⌠â
â  What if it were agreed that âproperâ meant wearing a codfish on your head?  â
â Do you know what Iâve always dreaded? Â â
â Â Iâd rather you didnât. Iâll be fine as soon as I wake up. Â â
â Â If youâre hiding her, you will lose your heads. Â â
â I donât care! He wouldnât be there if it werenât for me! Â â
â Iâve been shrunk, stretched, scratched, and stuffed into a teapot. Â â
â Â So, Iâve come to you hoping you might understand what itâs like. â
â There are questions I have to answer, things I have to do. â
â Â You two remind me of some funny boys I met in a dream. â
