Jason Alisharan: Frank

Quotes 

• Frank : Nobody ever saw the Phantom Cab again. And when the boys brought the police back to Dr. Vink's cottage, all that was left was an old stone foundation, covered with weed.

• Gary : To be a member, you have to tell us a scary tale, and then we vote. And it has to be unanimous or you're not in. Are you ready?

  Frank : Yeah, I'm ready...

  [in a sinister tone] 

  Frank : are YOU GUYS ready?

  Kiki : [All the kids at once, with Kiki being the loudest]  WHOOO! I'm scared now!

• Gary : Who sponsors Frank?

  David : I do. He's a good guy.

  Eric : But can he tell a good story?

  Frank : [blindfolded, steps forward and reaches out]  Who said that?

• Eric : Wait a minute, wait a minute, no fair. You can't put a riddle in a story that can't be solved.

  Betty Ann : Maybe it can.

  Eric : Yeah, right. It's weightless, you can see it, and if you put it in a barrel it makes the barrel lighter. No way.

  Kiki : Sounds like one of those riddles you can't solve.

  Kristen : That's a cheat.

  Gary : No - maybe it *can* be solved.

  Frank : *Maybe* you should all just lighten up, and let me finish the story.

• Frank : Denny and Buzz were brothers. Denny was big, strong, and smart. Buzz was, well, kind of a geek, who wanted to prove himself to his big brother. What neither guy knew, was that on this hiking trip, Buzz was gonna get the chance!
