The dark, drafty old house was lopsided and decrepit, leaning in on itself, the way an aging possum carrying a very heavy, overcooked drumstick in his mouth might list to one side if he were also favoring a torn Achilles tendon, assuming possums have them.

Thanks. That was good.
The possum angle was nice, too.
I wonder whether someone will compile all these hilarious intros into a book?
