Quote context

[...]

- Except that The Tingler it exists in every human being. And that it's extremely powerful.

- Fear causes The Tingler to spread along the spinal column.

- And probably with those arm-like things, between the vertebrae, forces it to become arched and rigid.

- And you believe that screaming or perhaps any sound the human in fear can make, deenergizes it, paralyzes it?

- At least screaming seems to stop The Tingler from bending the spinal column.

- Screaming may even dissolve it, or if it's a living organism, kill it.

- And these are things we have to find out.

- What do you think it's made of?

- I don't know. But I'd guess sinews of some very powerful material.

- You said, living organism. Could The Tingler be actually alive? A separate and living thing inside our bodies?

- Why not?

- You know, of course, that after what we call death, great many things continue to live in the human body. Fingernails, for instance, continue to grow. So does hair, and the formation of calcium in the bones continues.
