While the never shot Scenes 129 through 132 are pretty much exactly the same in the novelization as they are in DC's script, Scene 133 is not:
And here's an interesting question to ponder: I wonder if Carolyn would have killed David if she had succeeded in attacking him?
It was as if some unseen presence were guiding him on, making him venture further into this city of the dead. He walked with a purpose, not looking to right or left, giving no thoughts to the phantoms or evil shadows of this lonesome place . . . until at last he came to stand before the mausoleum. He stared at it with sad eyes, his thoughts all of Carolyn. The night was dark and it was very quiet. He had never liked graveyards even in daylight, but all at once he found the atmosphere here peaceful and inviting. He felt closer to his dead love than at any time since he'd last said goodbye to her. He bowed his head to say a silent prayer. It was while he stood there before the mausoleum with bowed head and lips moving wordlessly that he suddenly felt the touch of something on his shoulder! He whirled around with a look of horror on his handsome face to find himself staring at a pale, ghostly Carolyn! He backed away from her but she followed him. "Oh, my God," Todd gasped. He kept backing until he was against the granite wall of the mausoleum. Now he had nowhere to go. There was no chance of escape! Carolyn came to him re- lentlessly, a macabre phantom with her face white and expressionless. She held out her arms to him. "No!" he cried. "Todd!" she whispered softly. "I must be mad!" he gasped. She took one of his hands in hers. "See? I'm real! I'm here with you!" His terror increased with the touch of her hand. Her skin was ice cold and clammy. "Your touch is like death," he said hoarsely, the words escaping his lips without thought. Carolyn told him in a thin voice, "Don't be frightened, Todd." He was staring at her in disbelief. "David said he saw you. No one would listen to him!" "Perhaps that was for the best." "But he did see you!" Todd gasped. "Just as I'm seeing you now!" "He did," she assured him. "Think how lucky we are, Todd. We're going to be together. Together in a world very different from the one you know now. A world without end!" A look of sheer lust came into her eyes. She opened her mouth, baring two great fangs, and then she pounced on his neck. There was a final scream of horror from the unfortunate Todd as she held him in the vampire em- brace. |
