From SCARE SCAPE:"What the heck was that noise?" Melissa asked. She then spotted the smoking lawnmower with the twisted blade sticking out like some menacing metal claw. "Uh oh! Dad's going to blow his top now. That lawnmower was his most prized possession. He loves it far more than he loves us, you know.""More than he loves you, maybe," James said, and he winked at Morton. "What have you found, anyway? Some kind of creepy garden gnome?"Morton started brushing dirt from the statue and took another look. It had three goatish horns, a nasty, mocking grin, and hollow but somehow penetrating eyes."I think it's some kind of gargoyle," he said.
