Hello Spooksters

We greatly aprecciate your wonderful presence at "The Institute" (yuck!) and the "Butthole South". By the way, those of you who saw my forehead get cut open-it has healed with a small scar. No need to send flowers.

By the way, april is the SATANIC LOVE REVIVAL month so call and leave your most evil messages. 972-0541!

We are currently sorting through hundreds of hours of tape, picking "the best of" the answering machine messages which will appear locally on a double cassette compilation and will eventually end up on our studio album. (Which we promis is on its way soon, thanks to you.)

Here's our critic picks for the month

Best Video: Frankenhooker
Best Tape or C.D.: Tad: "8-Way Santa"
Best Motion Picture: still remains...SILENCE OF THE LAMBS
Best Drug: We pick Mushrooms for April, dry or moist

Key PHRASE TO DECIPHER FOR BIG CASH AND PRIZES...

(If you figure out the hidden meaning, call 972-0541 and win either a t-shirt or video. first correct caller only.)

Lisa stumbled from the trailer, smelling like Devil's food and semen. As she neared the pick up truck, "SWEET" Bill caught her and forced her back down to a level where he could once again see the roots of her bad bleach job.

FIGURE IT OUT AND CALL 972-0541...

*****also*****

We will award a lifetime pass to all of our shows to the person who performs the best ritualistic murder. if you manage to elude the PIGS, we would love to have you at all of our concerts.

We would like to congratulate KEVIN for being prankster of the month. Aside from masturbating, he spent all of his free time calling the numbers we suggested. It's fun, he tells me. So try it. Maybe you can be thee King of pranks next time. (YOU WILL BE REWARDED GENEROUSLY WITH SEX DRUGS AND ACTION FIGURES)

SO CALL ANY AND ALL OF THE FOLLOWING NUMBERS: try to call 5 or 6 times a day for optimum results.

1) the request list

call WSHE on sunday night from 9-11. 550-wshe

call WKPX everyday all day and harass all those retarded little fuckers. 572-1335

Call WLRN Monday nights at 12 midnight and tell BOB SLADE to play us and say, "ACID IS GROOVY, KILL THE PIGS." this will insure airplay. 523-7681

2) the prank list

call the Button South every day after 4 p.m. ask when we're playing. 454-4880.

call Reunion Room at least twice a day and ask when we're playing and when the after party show is. Say you heard it on the radio. call call call 491-2940

call this place called "Looney Tunes" and ask them if they will perform "the beastiality-necrophilia-fire-dance at your 16th birthday party." call call 785-9700.

now most important------ this guy, Chris Whitney, has been leaving obscene messages on the Spooky Kids hotline. However, he is not a fan. And I just happened to find out his number. 341-3190! when you call make sure it's late at night and ask: "Are you still selling your Lionel Richie Album collection? call call 341-3190!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

making these easy calls helps us (you) and it makes the "we" stronger. Against (them). We don't want to be them so we must be better at being the (we).

BE EXACTLY WHO YOU ARE

I AM JUST YOU.

together, we can make them change, instead of fighting so hard to be accepted.

If that doesn't
work we'll swoop
down on the towns
and kill everyone
that isn't beautiful

LOVE MARILYN

Children

sad things have happened since we last spoke. But first I would like to welcome all of the newcomers and thank the rest of the family for your support at Reunion Room and Club Nu.

It is sad that some of your parents have opened letters like this, your letters, and read them. They have banished their children to their rooms, retracted them like small pink pinalluses on a dogs underbelly. Ashamed.

Your parents are afraid of you because you can and are doing everything they cant and that scares them, makes them feel old...they hate us more than they love us most of the time.

What they don't understand is: How to cope with their fear like we do.

FEAR IS AWARENESS AND AWARENESS IS ONLY A FORM OF LOVE. TOTAL FEAR=TOTAL LOVE. once you give into fear it ceases to exist and all that's left is love. TRUE LOVE CASTS OUT ALL FEAR. IF YOUR PARENTS OR BOYFRIENDS OR GIRLFRIENDS ARE afraid OF ME (YOU) THEN THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEM!

SO PLEASE, to all of you who are still living in fear of yourself and being the YOU in OUR world of IS:

let ego die,
cease to exist,
follow us downstream.


FUCK KILL STEAL LIE

these are just paper words

FUCK KILL STEAL LIE

why are we afraid?

did it change your life to read those words?

FUCK KILL STEAL LIE

say it.

does it hurt your mouth?

Hear, Say, Read, See, what you want

don't let their guilt stop you, their rules they made up, their sins they created.

guilt is a snake outsiders grow in the spotless, kitchens to bake in their pies for their angry dinner parties snakes that squirm in your bellies, twisting your intestines then your head. Eating your vertebrea, making you spineless, hiding in your mouth, whispering with your lips. RISE UP AND BE YOU AND NEVER SACRIFICE FOR SOMEONE ELSE'S GUILT. Don't sell out your rights for college tuition money.

dear spooks

thanks much for your support at club nu, summers, the butthole south, and weak ends. for those of you who missed out we spent some time introducing the chocolate cow. for the uninitiated hear is a brief, very brief synopsis of the origin of the COW.

in the beginning there was a cow, from which all good chocolate came

and chocolate cow so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son/daughter that whosever believes in him shall not perish but will live happily ever after in the great chocolate factory

and the cow sent down from the factory his holy spirit fashioned in a magical music band that would help the bovine messiah head the sweet-toothed children to the promised land...

as a member of the spooky kids family, you are automatically invited into the FIRST CHURCH OF THE CHOCOLATE COW. OUR beautiful new, do-it-yourself quasi-religious pep club. if are interested in being "saved" please call immediatly...972-0541. WE DON'T WANT YOUR MONEY. just your chocolate, and love of course.

chocolate COW

due to the overwhelming mail we have recieved on behalf of the chocolate COW, we have added this new advice column. so in the future please adress your problems to dear chocolate COW, p.o. box 191190 miami beach, fl 33139.

dear chocolate COW,

i've been playing guitar for a rock band for a few years but unlike the spooky kids we are a posotive-message band. our soft rock is uplifting. anyway, recently i met a nice young man who also plays guitar and he and i went to the movies and took several long walks on the beach. everything seemed peachy until i heard the rumors that he was actually in love with MARILYN MANSON. is he? should i still love him? is gordy white really gay??!! I'm not average but I am confused, JIM CANACHO

DEAR JIM,

I LOVE YOUR BAND BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD DISCONTINUE YOUR AFFAIR WITH GORDY "THE HILLSID E STRANGLER". ALTHOUGH I CAN'T VERIFY THE RUMOURS OF HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH MR. MANSON, I CAN SAY THAT EVENTUALLY YOU TWO SHOULD GROW APART BECAUSE OF GORDY'S FONDNESS OF SLAYER AND YOUR OBVIOUS PENCHANT FOR DOING THE WILL OF god. KEEP WRITING GOOD SONGS, BUT KEEP YOU SEX LIFE SIMPLER AND HAPPIER BY ADOPTING A BABY CALF.

dear COW,
who's chad?
signed,
TRACY SEGAL

WELL TRACY THAT DEPENDS. THE CHAD WE REFER TO MOST OFTEN IS MY COUSIN FROM CANTON, OHIO. THE OTHER POSSIBILITIES RANGE ANYWHERE FROM THE HALF-KOREAN CLERK AT KINKO'S COPIES. THE GAS STATION ATTENDANT AT THE bp ON THE CORNER OF MCNAD AND POWERLINE OR THE MYSTERY ORGAN PLAYER FOR THE BAND AMBOOG-A-?

call me and say hi, goddammitt
