Drama summary[]

The series narrator reintroduces the audience to the story: Robby Cochrall and Peggy Mansfield, fleeing a mysterious creature after they crashed their car, run for a nearby hospital. Peggy is injured, but Robby supports her while encouraging her to keep going. Suddenly, they see the beast stalking them. Frightened frantically knock on the hospital door and call for help. A mysterious doctor answers the door and asks them about their situation. Robby and Peggy tell him about their situation, the monster they saw, and that they are alone. When Peggy confirms that they are alone, the doctor agrees to take care of them.

Robby comforts Peggy as they enter the hospital. He advises the doctor to notify the police, but the doctor insists on treating Peggy's leg injury first and instructs her to lie down on the bed nearby. Peggy is noticeably anxious at this point. The doctor reassures Peggy and administers a shot, claiming it will "fix" her. Peggy then notices that her arm is starting to tingle. The doctor sinisterly reassures her that the tingling is normal. Soon, the pain intensifies and the doctor straps Peggy to the bed against Robby's protests.

Suddenly, the monster approaches in the hallway outside. When Peggy notices and tells the doctor, he reveals that it is actually a different creature, a test subject who was "much more agreeable" than the one outside the hospital, explaining that the hospital has been working on "extraordinary enhancements" to evolution. To Robby's horror, he insinuates that Peggy will soon mutate into one of the creatures as well. Peggy's pain intensifies further as she begins to mutate and her voice begins to sound more monstrous. The doctor restrains Robby while a mutating Peggy calls out to Robby and bears down on him. The story ends as Robby screams in pain.

Transcript

Narrator; Tonight, we bring you the final chapter of The Beast of Grafton. When last we left off, two teenagers, Robby Cochrall and Peggy Mansfield, were running for their lives after a harrowing car accident, trying to escape a frightening creature stalking them.

(running)

Robby: See, you're doing great, just like when won that three-legged race in the park. We're almost to the hospital.

(Loud footsteps and growling)

Peggy: Oh no. There it is. I see it. Coming out of the woods!

Robby: It's bigger than a bear!

Peggy: And look it has no head! It's just flesh and muscle and claws! Robby, it wasn't a boulder we hit. It was that... thing!

Robby: It's ok. We're here, we made it. Door's locked. Hello? Anyone in there? Help us!

Doctor: My my, what's going on? Who are you?

Robby: Please doctor, there's been an accident. My girlfriend's injured.

Peggy: There's something after us, a monster, in the woods.

Doctor: Oh, a monster you say.

Robby: I know, it sounds crazy but, I hit it with my car and...

Doctor: Ah, I see. It's just you two?

Peggy: Yes, it's just us. Won't you help us doctor? Please!

Doctor: Of course, we'll take care of you dear. Do come in, come in!

Robby: See? I told you everything was going to be ok, Peggy. Doctor, are you going to call the police about the... thing outside?

Doctor: Well, all in good time, son. First, let's have a look at the girl's foot. Lie down on this table, dear.

Peggy: Is it bad, doctor?

Doctor: Nothing we can't fix right up. I think a little shot should do the trick.

Peggy: Aww!

Robby: What's that shot for?

Doctor: I told you, to fix her.

Peggy: Doctor, my arm's starting to tingle, it that normal?

Doctor: Oh yes, quite normal.

Peggy: Ow, it's really burning now!

Doctor: Hold still, my dear.

Robby: Hey! Why you strapping her down like that?

Doctor: Just following procedure.

(Low growl)

Peggy: In the hallway, it's the monster!

Doctor: Actually, that's an entirely different subject. She's been much more agreeable than the escaped one you encountered earlier on the road.

Robby: These monsters are yours?

Doctor: Why of course! Though monster's a gross mischaracterization of the extraordinary enhancements of evolution we've achieved here.

Peggy: My whole body is burning!

Robby: Evolution? I don't understand.

Doctor: Oh you will, my boy, eh eh, you both will!

Robby: What is this place? Hey! Let go of me!

Peggy: Ah! What's happening? I feel so... strange!

Monstrous voice, presumably Peggy: Robby? Robby!

Robby: Ahh, ahh!

Narrator: Tonight's gruesome tale taught us several things. You can't always trust a good Samaritan. Be cautious driving through the woods near Grafton, and birthday wishes don't always come true. Be sure to tune in next week for another thrilling chapter of Tales from the West Virginia Hills!
