Transcript

Terror walks off the stage and into the audience. Pray! Two for one pass to anyone who can sit through the entire show, and it's all live. This is the only show that gets away with murder.

First we'll take a little jaunt with the jeopardy along the path of peril where we'll prowl with panic until we take the left turn into horror highway and thence via

terra-ten pike straight into the road to ruin. I don't think I like you're a tenerary, Mr. Host. If you don't mind, I'd much rather take a shortcut to the highway of happiness via the kitchen.
