Creepy Game

Ok, time for some disclosure. Megan and I play a disturbing game at bedtime. We call it "Fee Fi Fo Fum," based on the classic children's fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk.


At first it was fun, not disturbing. In the basic scenario Megan hides under her covers (as Jack hid from the giant) and I approach the bed roaring "fee fi fo fum! I smell the blood of an English woman! Be she alive or be she dead I'll grind her bones to make my bread!!" There would be a look of terror on her face as I whipped back the covers.


At first that's where the game stopped. After a few nights she came up with a new strategy. After I whipped back the covers she began to say "I'm not her! I'm... you daughter." So I was forced to look elsewhere for the English woman. Megan would point her out and I'd grab the imaginary woman and devour her.


Now after several weeks Megan has me grabbing the woman and her extended family, making sandwiches out of them (one for me and one for Megan--with ketchup!), and most recently pizza. Human pizza. And her relatives? As of tonight they go in the freezer for later.


This is messed up.
