Tales from the gilded pig.
Ep. 1:
A dead man walks into a bar.

On February 22nd Stuart Doubleday was trudging his way through three feet of snow in negative thirteenth degree weather when he slipped on a patch of ice and fell into the street. Unfortunately at that particular moment a snowplow was barreling its way down the road and promtly ran him over, he died instantly. Now Elkhorn Wisconsin is no stranger to the strange from the beast of Bray Road to the occasional flying saucer over town hall and even a skin walker or two, but by far the most unusual events take place at the guilded pig a small bar and restaurant situated in the woods out side of town. So the bars owner, old Mel Quentin was only slightly taken aback when Stuart stumbled through the front doors for his shift, two weeks late and still very much dead. After much deliberation and a quick call to the county health inspecter it was decided that Stuart could keep his job, provided he didn't take a bite out any of the customers. Yes Elkhorn is full of oddities and if you're in our neck of the woods swing on by the guilded pig home of Stuart, the zombie bar tender. But do mind your fingers.
