Maybe someone with sharp eyes notices the really large crate they have for luggage, along with a small carry on bag consisting mostly of sandwiches. They're going to Grampa's funeral, gonna make sure he's laid to rest in his native soil. He won't rest easy otherwise.Each stop, they buy huge quantities of ice and store it in their crate. When the bus breaks down somewhere between towns, they're frantic, looking for ice. Why? Well, grampa wasn't a nice old man, and once he warms up he's going to start moving again....Now, in background, you find out that they moved from their farm to make money ('cause there wasn't any jobs there in Cooter's Holler) and he got a nice job with a factory making bathroom fittings and they brought grampa out, but he never held with the city. Sinful, he said. Wouldn't be caught dead there.Heh-heh-heh.And night falls, and someone hears something and in the morning the fellow and his family are gone, and the crate is smashed to pieces, as if it were burst open from the outside.They can investigate, but they don't find anything except some red stains down the road.(This would be early in the bus trip, so I don't want to have a fight with a huge undead beast at this point; I want them to start thinking creepy things.)That and bugs with human eyes. Little blue eyes. Looking at them. Blinking. Most bugs don't blink.</blockquote>
