The Pit Zone: Where Dead Men Do Tell Tales (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798330601738)

A Crusty tells a story about a Crusty escaping from the Pit Zone into the human world. When Crusty is in the human world, Crusty watches the tourists through a cabin's living room window watching horror movies. Crusty misinterprets their giggling as killing is a cool thing to do. Crusty then makes a sharp weapon at an old blacksmith shop nearby, then attacks and slashes the tourists. Aftermath, Crusty becomes known as, The Killing Jokester and The Hee Hee Man.

In the initial scene, the faceless Crusties each wear a brown robe cassock with a hood and are a.k.a. the "Crusty students". They smash lava in Pit 1. The Pitster first transports the Crusty students in a train from Pit 1 to Pit 2 to a pit school university. This all takes place in an underworld cave deep in the earth's crust. Once the train arrives at the pit school university, half the students walk into Professor Hench's class, and the other half walk into Professor Wench's class. Crusty's job is to tell a good story or suffer the consequences and get decapitated and thrown into a pit. The Pitster is the judge.

When a teacher asks one of the students to volunteer to tell a story, a Crusty steps up to the podium and starts off with, "Once upon a time, a Crusty student asks the teacher if it could go to the restroom. The instructor says yes, then the student leaves the classroom. Because the coast was clear, instead of heading toward the restroom, Crusty runs to a horse stall and saddles up one of the pit horses. Crusty begins his escape on the horse and eventually arrives and enters inside of the dark Pit 2 cave.

Once inside the cave, as if there was no gravity, the horse gallops and flies Crusty 90 upwards through a wormhole toward a path that leads Crusty into the forbidden human world. When the Pistress, the Pitster's girlfriend, discovers the horse is missing, she whistles for its return. The pit horse hears the echoing sounds and bucks Crusty off its back and gallops back. But Crusty, however, continues to tumble and float upwards through the wormhole toward the human world. When Crusty lands at the cave entrance to the human world, Crusty begins the journey toward the cabin where it all unfolds...."
