The entire floor space between the benches was taken up by a table finished in a dark stain. "This room is a horrid hole," said Hahlström. "It positively makes me creepy." A loud, trumpet-like, laughing voice called out from inside the room: "I say, Hahlström, if this sort of weather holds out, neither your daughter nor I will keep the first day of our engagement with Webster and Forster.
"You're enough to make a fellow feel creepy before ever he starts. I could bear the worst racket on earth better than a dead quiet."
As he saw the two men conceal themselves, he wondered what sort of a call the third man intended making on the new agent, and why he should leave two armed men close at hand in ambush when calling on one lone telegraph operator. Bucks began to feel a bit creepy and watched the scene unfolding below with keen attention.
At least, I claim that I was being controlled, or whatever you want to call it, by the recently departed spirit of Sandy the Great." I expect I was gawpin' at him with a full open-face expression. Say, I thought I'd heard these golf nuts ravin' before, but I'd never been up against anything quite like this. Honest, it gave me a creepy feelin' along the spine.
"But thar's one thing we've got to guard ag'in'," said Shif'less Sol. "I don't want to be tracked by any more dogs. Besides bein' dangerous, it gives you a creepy uncomf'table feelin'." "We'll keep a good watch for them," said Henry. As they saw no reason for haste, they slept in the woods another night, and the next night thereafter they approached the Indian village.
"It's not the custom of either service, Okewood," he said, "to send a man to certain death. You're not in this creepy, crawly business of ours. You're a pukka soldier and keen on your job. So I want you to know that you are free to turn down this offer of mine here and now, and go back to France without my thinking a bit the worse of you." "Would you tell me something about it?" asked Desmond.
Their way lay along what had been the main street of the city, and the silence, which had been pleasant in the pass, became strange and creepy here. It told of utter ruin, and seized upon the spirit of those who passed with a sense of haunting desolation. Suddenly, into this eerie silence, there broke a sound which set every heart leaping.
Just about this time, two Indian gentlemen, named Geronimo and Victoria, were raising particular mischief all through that section of the country, and the feeling that any moment they might come down on you and raise your scalp after puncturing you full of holes was anything but pleasant. It was decidedly creepy and many a time I wished myself back in the good old state of Texas.
Don't you s'pose even the things we think and feel get into the air, too and linger?" Beryl tugged at her arm. "Oh, come on, Robin. You make me creepy. You'll be seeing ghosts in a moment. I want to have a good look at that letter. Wasn't it a surprise, though?" But after a close study of it, Beryl threw the letter down in disappointment. "Not so much as a tiny crown on it!
Nick has pitched on a secluded corner anyhow. I shouldn't think the foot of man had trodden it for a thousand years." Olga laughed. "I wonder. It's better than the jungle, isn't it? I don't feel nearly so creepy here." "What price tigers?" grinned Noel. "Oh, I've got over that," she declared. "But I didn't like your Wilderness of Nasty Possibilities." He flashed her a merry look.
