Umlando uthi, abantu babehlale bethanda ukuzama ukulawula indawo ezungeze izinto zemvelo ngengqondo yabo. Abanye bazamile ukulawula umlilo kanti abanye bazamile ngesimo sezulu kepha kuze kube namuhla, akukho noyedwa okwamanje oye wakwazi ukwenza kanjalo. Kodwa-ke, umcimbi omangazayo ogxile esiboshweni sama-80s, impilo kaDon Decker ithi into exakile enjalo yenzeke empilweni yangempela.
UDon Decker, okwakuthiwa uthole ukulawula isimo sezulu esizungezile ukwenza imvula noma nini lapho ethanda noma lapho ethanda khona. Ikhono eliyinqaba limenza adume umhlaba wonke ngegama elithi “Indoda Yemvula".
Konke lokhu kwaqala ngoFebhuwari 24, 1983 eStroudsburg, ePennsylvania, e-United States, ngesikhathi kudlula umkhulu kaDecker, uJames Kishaugh. Ngenkathi abanye bekhala, uDon Decker wayeqala ukuzwa ukuthula. Lokho abanye ababengakwazi, ukuthi uJames Kishaugh wayehlukumeze ngokomzimba kusukela esemncane.
Yize ebesejele, uDecker uthole imali yokuya emngcwabeni kayisemkhulu oshonile izinsuku eziyisi-7. Kepha umuzwa wokuthula kaDecker bekungeke uhlale isikhathi eside.
Ngemuva komngcwabo, uBob noJeannie Keiffer ababengabangani bomndeni kaDon Decker bammemela ekhaya labo ukuba azohlala ebusuku. Ngenkathi bedla isidlo sakusihlwa uDecker wayeqhubeka nokudla izinkumbulo ezazibuyiselwe emuva ngesikhathi somngcwabo. Wazithethelela etafuleni waya endlini encane, ukuze aziqoqe ehlise umoya.
Ngokusho kwakhe, ngenxa yokuba yedwa wancipha kancane kancane imizwa yakhe yaqala ukuvalela inhlangano yakhe. Njengoba lokhu kwenzeka, izinga lokushisa ekamelweni lehla kakhulu, futhi umhlobisi wabona isithombe esiyindida sendoda endala njengomkhulu wakhe kodwa efake umqhele. Ukulandela lokhu wezwa ubuhlungu obucijile engalweni, wathi uma ebheka phansi wabona amamaki amathathu anokuchaphaza kwegazi. Uma ubheka emuva isibalo besingasekho. Edidekile, wabuyela ezansi wahlangana nabangane bakhe etafuleni lokudla kwakusihlwa. Ngalesi sikhathi, phakathi nesikhathi sokudla konke, uDecker wangena kokuhlangenwe nakho okucishe kube njenge-trance, lapho ayengakwazi ukwenza lutho ngaphandle kokugqolozela.
Ngemuva kwesikhashana, ezinye izehlakalo ezingajwayelekile zaqala ukwenzeka - amanzi aconsa kancane kancane odongeni nasophahleni, futhi kwakhiwa inkungu ekhanyayo phansi.
Babiza umnikazi wendawo yokwakha ukuze babheke inkinga yamanzi futhi kungakabiphi umninindlu weza nonkosikazi wakhe bahlola indlu yonke kodwa abatholanga isizathu esizwakalayo sokuvuza kwamanzi, ngoba wonke amapayipi amapayipi ayekhona ngaphesheya zesakhiwo. Bese bebiza amaphoyisa ukuthi azophenya ukuthi kwenzakalani empeleni. Bekungumqaphi uRichard Wolbert okunguyena ofike kuqala endaweni yesigameko. Kuthathe imizuzu embalwa nje ukuthi umlindi uWolbert athelwe ngamanzi ngemuva kokungena ekhaya. Kamuva, uWolbert wachaza akubonile ebusuku engena endlini yaseKeiffer.
Ngokusho kukaWolbert, bebemi nje ngaphakathi emnyango wangaphambili futhi bahlangane nalesi sithonsi samanzi esihamba siqonde phezulu. Idlule phakathi kwabo yavele yaphumela egumbini elilandelayo.
Isikhulu uJohn Baujan owayeze ukuzojoyina uphenyo noWolbert naye wabona lesi simanga isimangaliso endlini. Uthe ngesikhathi engena eKeiffer House, wayebanda ngokoqobo emgogodleni, okwenza izinwele zasukuma entanyeni yakhe, wangena isimanga sokumangala.
Njengoba i-Officer Baujan yayingakwazi ukuqonda lutho okwakwenzeka lapho, weluleka abakwaKeiffers ukuthi bakhiphe uDecker ekhaya bayohlala e-pizzeria eseduze. Ngokushesha nje lapho behamba, indlu yabuyela esimeni sayo.
UPam Scrofano, owayengumnikazi wendawo yokudlela i-pizza, wabona uDecker engena kule ndawo yokudlela esimweni esifana ne-zombie. Imizuzwana ngemuva kokuthi abakwaKeiffers noDecker behlale phansi, baqaphela ukuthi into efanayo iqale ukwenzeka epizzeria. Amanzi aqala ukwehla emakhanda awo futhi asakazeka phansi. UPam wavele wagijimela kwirejista yakhe wakhipha isiphambano sakhe wasibeka esikhumbeni sikaDecker, esola ukuthi unedimoni. UDecker usabele ngokushesha ngoba isiphambano besibonakala sishise inyama yakhe.
Ngalesi sikhathi, kwakungasakwazi ukuhlala e-pizzeria. UBob noJeannie Keiffer banquma ukubuyisela uDecker ekhaya labo. Ngokushesha nje lapho beshiya i-pizzeria, imvula yayeka ukuna.
Lapho kuhlala khona abakwaKeiffer, kwathi nje abakwaKeiffers noDecker bangena ekhaya, imvula yaqala futhi ukuna. Kepha kulokhu izimbiza namaphani bekuzwakala futhi kuduma ekhishini. Ekugcineni, umninindlu nomkakhe bakholelwa ukuthi uDecker wayedlala uhlobo oluthile lwamancoko abonakalayo ukuze alimaze impahla yabo.
Izinto zabe seziphenduka ngendlela emangalisayo. Ngokushesha uDecker wazizwa ekhuphuka emhlabathini futhi waphoqelelwa ngodonga ngamandla athile angabonakali. Akuphelanga sikhathi esingakanani, izikhulu uBaujan noWolbert babuyela eKeiffer Residence neChief Head yabo kodwa abatholanga lutho olungajwayelekile. Ngakho-ke, iNkosi yaphetha umcimbi njengenkinga yamapayipi futhi yaluleka ukuthi iwukhohlwe. Mhlawumbe ngenxa yelukuluku, amaphoyisa angamnakanga u-Chief wawo abuya ngakusasa noLt.John Rundle noBill Davies bezobheka ukuthi izinto zihamba kanjani.
Ngenkathi la maphoyisa amathathu efika ekhaya ajabule ukubona ukuthi izinto zibukeka sezilungile. Ngemuva kwalokho, uBill Davies wenza isivivinyo sakhe wabeka isiphambano segolide ezandleni zikaDon Decker. UDavies ukhumbule uDecker ethi kuyamshisa, ngakho-ke uDavies wasibuyisa isiphambano. Amaphoyisa abuye abona uDecker ephinda futhi endiza ayobonda odongeni lwangaphakathi.
Ngokwencazelo kaLt.John Rundle, ngokuzumayo, uDecker wasukuma phansi futhi wandizela egumbini ngamandla amaningi, kwakungathi ibhasi limshayile. Kwakunezimpawu ezintathu zezinzipho ohlangothini lwentamo kaDecker, ezazidonsa igazi, futhi uRundle akanampendulo ngakho. Udweba nje kungenalutho, nanamuhla.
Ngemuva kwalokho, umninindlu waqaphela isimo sangempela sikaDon Decker futhi wafuna ukumsiza akhululeke enkingeni, ngakho wabiza wonke umshumayeli eStroudsburg futhi wenqatshwa iningi. Kodwa-ke, omunye weza endlini wakhuleka noDecker. Kancane kancane, uDecker wabonakala enguye futhi, futhi akuzange kunethise ekhaya.
Ima, indaba ayifanga lapha !!
Ukuqhuma kukaDon Decker kwakuphelile futhi kwase kuyisikhathi sokubuyela ejele. Ngesikhathi esesitokisini sakhe, uDecker wacabanga. Wazibuza ukuthi angakwazi yini ukulawula imvula; empeleni, bekuyinto evamile ukuba, ngubani ongenalo ngempela lesi sifiso? Ngokushesha nje lapho eqala ukucabanga ngakho, uphahla lweseli kanye nezindonga kwaqala ngokumangalisa amanzi. UDecker wayithola ngokushesha impendulo yakhe, ngakho manje wayekwazi ukulawula imvula noma nini nanoma kuphi lapho ethanda khona.
Unogada wejele owenza imizuliswano yakhe akazange ajabule lapho ebona wonke amanzi egcwele iseli. Akakholwanga ngenkathi uDecker emtshela ukuthi ufisa imvula ngengqondo yakhe. Unogada waphonsela uDecker inselelo futhi washo ukuthi ngabe ngempela unawo yini la mandla okulawula imvula, bese wenza imvula ine ehhovisi lomphathi. U-Decker ubophezelekile.
Unogada wangena indlela eya ehhovisi lomgcini, lapho isikhundla somqaphi sasigcinwe khona okwesikhashana ngu-LT. UDavid Keenhold. UKeenhold wayengazi ukuthi uDon Decker wayengubani noma yini mayelana nokuthi kwenzekani lapho kuhlala khona abantu base Keiffer nase pizzeria. Ngesikhathi unogada engena ehhovisi, wabona uKeenhold ehleli yedwa etafuleni lakhe. Unogada uphinde waqalaza, wahlola igumbi waze wabona uKeenhold eduze. Wabuza uKeenhold ukuthi abuke ihembe lakhe, lalicwile emanzini!
Umphathi wathi ngqo maphakathi nendawo kwe-sternum yakhe, cishe amasentimitha amane ubude, amasentimitha amabili ububanzi, wayegcwele nje ngamanzi. Wethuka futhi wesaba ngokweqiniso. Iphoyisa nalo lalithukile ngaleso sikhathi, futhi lalingenayo nencazelo yokuthi kwenzeke kanjani noma kanjani.
I-LT. UKeenhold, ekugcineni ngemuva kokuqonda okwakwenzeka, wabiza umngani wakhe umfundisi uWilliam Blackburn futhi wamcela ngokushesha ukuba abonane noDon Decker. UMfundisi Blackburn wavuma wasondela esitokisini sikaDon Decker. Ngesikhathi echazelwa ngakho konke okwenzekile selokhu uDecker aqhubeka nokusebenza, umfundisi wamsola ngokwenza konke. Leli cala alihlanga kahle kuDecker. Ukuziphatha kwakhe kwashintsha futhi isitokisi sakhe savele sagcwala iphunga elinamandla. Abanye ofakazi bachaze iphunga njengelabafileyo, kodwa laphindaphindwa ngabahlanu. Yabe iphinde yavela imvula futhi. Kwakuyimvula enenkungu echazwa umfundisi njengemvula kaDeveli.
UMfundisi Blackburn wagcina ekuqondile ukuthi lokhu kwakungeyona inkohliso. Waqala ukuthandazela uDecker futhi wahlala kuleso sitokisi ethandaza naye amahora amaningi. Futhi ekugcineni, kwenzeka. Imvula ime futhi uDon Decker wakhala izinyembezi. Noma ngabe kuyini okuthinte uDecker, ayiphindanga yaziveza futhi. UDecker uthe unethemba lokuthi lokhu ngeke kuphinde kwenzeke. Uthe umkhulu wakhe wamhlukumeza kanye futhi waba nethuba lokumhlukumeza futhi. Konke akufunayo ukuthula.
The i-paranormal Isigameko esichazwe ngenhla sasakazwa ohlelweni oludumile lwe-tv Izimfihlo Ezingaxazululwa ngoFebhuwari 10, 1993, futhi wathola ukuthandwa okuvela emhlabeni wonke.
