So this weekend I was able to spend a little time with the one and only EBC. We talked a little, I laughed a lot. He never ceases to amaze. Just bring up the topic of kittens and this kid gets a grin on his face like one you'd expect to see on a 6 year old on christmas morning. Of course I try and keep him going talking about all the newest videos circulating youtube and he is just loving it. He tells me of some more places to find some "funny" videos and then I get to talkin to him about a text message he sent emjaybee earlier on in the day, it read:

"Hey man, have you seen all of those big piles of leaves on campus. I just want to hide in one and jump out and scare little boys walking around Clemson"

If that's not one of the strangest things then I don't know what is. Maybe it's the single life gettin to him, but who am I to judge.

But anywho I decided to talk to him a little more about his fetish with vampires and werewolves and all the creatures of the underworld. He tells me that he believes the world is going to someday be taken over by vampires and that he's the only one that will be ready for them when they come. It is not known for sure but rumor has it from certain people that stay in pretty close contact with Eric that he carries around certain apotropaics-for those of you unfamiliar with the jargon of the underworld apotropaics are mundane or sacred items able to ward off revenants—such as garlic or even holy water. This could be the reason for that foul odor that emits from his pores when around him. I also recall going to his residence one late night and seeing Eric on the rooftop with something in his hand come to find out later from one of his roommates he was sprinkling mustard seeds over the roof. Legend has it that they are also a way of warding off vampires and other creatures from the underworld.

Now we can not entirely fault Eric for his strange and somewhat absurb beliefs, being from Pennsylvania children are taught to always be weary of Vampires. We will reasearch this more in depth over the next few days.

By the way,Full Moon on the way-try and stay indoors Eric is believed to be part man/part werewolve. Typically werewolves are believed to try and trick mothers into taking their children-could be the reason for the hiding in leaves and scaring little kids comment-just the proof we need-not to mention all the child "movies" found on his computer. I'm thinkin either werewolve or creeper. More to come on this. Hopefully we will soon be able to know this for sure. As for now this is all speculation.

In the meantime please feel free to email us with any updates or news you have on EBC. It would be greatly appreciated.
