You're fighting a spooky music boxThis music box plays a variety of haunted, unpleasant tunes, all diminished fourths and minor intervals. It also winds itself while no one's looking, so all you have to do is open the lid, watch the faded, creepy little figurine inside spin around, and wonder why you can't see your reflection in the mirror at the bottom of the box.
Hit Message(s):
It plays a minor variation on "Happy Birthday," reminding you of your own inexorable march toward the grave. Eek! Ugh! (spooky damage)
It plays a minor variation on "If You're Happy And You Know It." It's really soul-sucking. Ooh! Ouch! (spooky damage)
It plays a minor variation on "London Bridge is Falling Down," reminding you of the inevitable decay and folly of all man's inventions. Ouch! Ouch! (spooky damage)
It plays a minor variation on "The Alphabet Song," filling your head with dark letters of a forbidden tongue. Argh! Ow! (spooky damage)
It plays a minor variation on "The Wheels on the Bus," reminding you of the thousands of people killed in automobile accidents every year. Ouch! Ouch! (spooky damage)
It plays a minor variation on "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," reminding you how vast and unfeeling the universe is. Ow! Ouch! (spooky damage)
It plays a grinding, discordant melody that sounds like a blender and a cat getting into a fight and somehow both losing. After careful listening, you realize the central melody it's improvising upon is "Frere Jacques." Ding, ding, dong, indeed. Eek! Oof! (spooky damage)
It plays a minor variation on "Happy Birthday," but it actually sounds less boring that way.
It plays a minor variation on "If You're Happy And You Know It." You clap along.
It plays a minor variation on "London Bridge is Falling Down," but you happily sing along.
It plays a minor variation on "The Alphabet Song," but you just pretend it's "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" instead.
It plays a minor variation on "The Wheels on the Bus," but you sing along.
It plays a minor variation on "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," but you prefer to believe it's the Alphabet Song.
It slows down, then stops and has to wind itself back up again. It's a tiny bit spooky to see the wind-up key move all by itself, but nothing you can't handle. (FUMBLE!)
