"And so... her ghost haunts the river, still in her wedding veil, looking for her drowned lover..."
Panel 2 (narration box, left):
"What she doesn't realize is that the drowned lover has moved on. There are lots of options in the supernatural realm."
Panel 2 (narration box, right):

"Oh shit kids, she can hear us."
Panel 4 (same camper, speech balloon, as the pale ghost looms at the edge of the scene):
"Play it cool."
Votey:
A shaggy, six-pack-abs sasquatch-like figure muses to itself:
"Boy everyone is wayyy more into ghost-girls than giant hairy men with six-pack abs, right kids?"

A four-panel SMBC comic about people telling ghost stories around a campfire at night. Panel 1: a group sits around a fire by a river while one narrates, "And so... her ghost haunts the river, still in her wedding veil, looking for her drowned lover..." Panel 2: two narration boxes deliver the twist — "What she doesn't realize is that the drowned lover has moved on. There are lots of options in the supernatural realm." and "He's currently in a poly triad with a leprechaun and a sasquatch." Panel 3: a campfire kid suddenly looks alarmed: "Oh shit kids, she can hear us." Panel 4: a pale, ghostly figure looms at the left edge of the riverbank while the camper, frozen, mutters, "Play it cool." Votey: a beefy, hairy, six-pack-abbed sasquatch figure breaks the fourth wall, sounding insecure: "Boy everyone is wayyy more into ghost-girls than giant hairy men with six-pack abs, right kids?"
