OOOH, excellent. More mummies in the works?
Heh, here’s a great way to start a tale of a mummy rising… with frantic desperation.
Carrie – Hopefully!
Tony – Well I think I’d be a bit panicked if I suddenly woke up about five thousand years!
This would be a fabulous beginning to a longer tale. Say it is so.
Superb descriptions here Icy! I could feel the mummy looking out at all those poor innocent tourists…and I feel sorry for them!
I think you’re at your best when writing ghosts & mummies. And you lived up to it here — I can see the panic of your mummy, struggling against its wrappings in the dark of its sarcophagus, while the living move onto the next display in blissful ignorance…
Ooh, really nice how you packed so much in so few words. Cool.
Mummies! We never get stories about mummies. I’m with the others, I want to know what she’s going to do with it now.
Very neat in very little space, Icy. Dug this a lot – archaeologically speaking.
Love it! A mummies series? I want the next one.
I think it may take more than one stab at the snooze button before this poor soul is ready to rise.
So much coolness in so few words. I dig the notion of a mummy coming around only to completely freak out. I’ve never seen that before.
Fun as always!
The suggestion of so much more makes this piece so engaging. Precise and awesome.

I like the suggestiveness of the little details. Should be interesting to see what the necromancer releases.
I love that it takes place in a museum, and hoping there will be more of this story.
A necromancer conjurs from the displays…niiice. Imagine strolling through and seeing a sarcophagus slowly open!
Nice sharp writing – is it going to be curse of the mummy all over again ^_^
Love the tension Icy! and the great line “The panicked corpse thrashed against imprisonment..” I loved too the sudden cut away to the unsuspecting tourists who are about to get it!!
Hammer Horror Splatfest!
Love a good mummy story. If this is the start of more to come – count me in!
I wasn’t really planning on turning this into a serial but it looks like it’s going to be a longer piece. Watch this space…
Wow your descriptions in this are some of your most powerful – fantastic. Really could see the mummy in its entirety
Love mummies! Brilliant piece of flash! More,more 🙂 Thanks Icy
Awwww, Icy, don’t you want to write me a novella about a plague of mummies?
