ELVIRA'S HAUNTED HILLS By John Paragon & Cassandra Peterson FADE IN: CRIMSON MIXES WITH EMERALD AND AMBER OILS IN A SWIRLING OVERHEAD PROJECTOR EFFECT. SCREEN FADES TO BLACK DREAM SEQUENCE *NOTE: This scene has a slow-motion, foggy, other-worldly quality. INT. CASTLE - ELURA'S BEDROOM The lavishly decorated boudoir is lit by dozens of candles. In the center of the room is a giant canopy bed. Through the gauze bed curtains we see a 19th CENTURY ELVIRA making mad, passionate love to a HANDSOME MAN. Their passionate cries (mouthed) tell us they are nearing climax. The couple's faces contort in ecstasy. Just at that moment, a STRANGER'S HAND reaches in and rips open the curtains. The couple looks stunned as their eyes look at the hand then follow it up to the face. Elvira/Elura demurely clutches the covers over her bosom. WIDER TO INCLUDE STRANGER He is dressed in a dramatic hooded robe, which conceals his identity from the audience. He brandishes a lethal looking sword. He swings the heavy sword. We HEAR A SLICING SOUND.
