"How nice of you all to come to our little exhibition. To the connoisseurs amongst you, those tasteful few who take their art seriously, we acknowledge, with no apologies, that you won't find the works of the masters here. Because, in this particular salon, we choose our painting with an eye more towards terror and technique. A little American Gothic here, with the accustomed accoutrements to mourning - tombstones and tears and the somber look of the bereaved. We generally cry at funerals out of sense of loss. A poor, unfortunate loved one who will no longer walk the Earth. He or she will simply occupy six feet of it - Never to be seen or heard from again, or at least we make an assumption that that's natural law and we subscribe to it. But this painting here, and we admit this upfront, breaks that law. It's called a Death in the Family. It offers up a new view of death and it introduces you to quite a family who live here, in the Night Gallery."

"It's so easy this way. Once the wall gets sealed, there's nothing to do but lean back. And, in a little while, a very little while, the air will be gone and there will be nothing left but sleep. No fear. No pain. Just soft, sweet sleep."

"A most unusual graduation exercise now. It's title - The Class of '99. A set of numbers and a pair of eyes. We'll move behind them now to give you an idea why we call the place you're in, the Night Gallery."

"A bizarre little item here offered to the gourmet who takes his banquet seriously. If sometime you are invited to a picnic under the moon, you might best check the other guests. The ones who didn't arrive in automobiles. Who, as a matter of fact, parked their brooms in the corner of the meadow. This little nocturnal clambake is called Witches' Feast."
