"True Love"
6 June 2007
Warning: Spoilers
From the opening, this is one of Samantha's stories. "I've got a story about something incredibly horrifying. But it's not monsters or demons, or any of the usual scary stuff," she says while she walks around the campfire to her seat. "It's about something that can strike any one of us at any time, and it's always when you least expect it". "What is it?" Gary asks "True love," answers Samantha. Of course, no one believes her. But what really got me intrigued was what she said next to their smirks. "Come on. Who says love isn't scary? It can really hurt sometimes. But love is what people live for. And in my story...it's sort of what they die for".

The Tale Of The Dream Girl: revolves around Johnny and Erica who are really close as brother and sister. And it all revolves around a ring that Johnny finds in his locker. Upon putting it on his finger, he cannot remove it and a mysterious girl begins to appear to him and her voice calls out to him. But even Johnny cannot work it out, until a little investigative work points them towards a graveyard where a shocking truth is revealed.

I loved this story just for the way it was written and how well the young actors at the time, played their parts. The ending (I won't ruin it for those who have not seen it) was both tragic and happy. Honestly, it brought a tear to my eye. This episode includes some very nice tunes as well which I love.

Enjoy "The Tale of the Dream Girl" for it is a great story.
