When Steve lived with us, he often spoke of the scariest creature in his life--—Killer Clown. He had seen the horror movie IT at a way too young age, and was always wary of bathrooms and sink and tub drains after that. I was curious to know what he was talking about so I watched IT once and yes, the bathroom scene was the most jarring for me. A child is washing up at the bathroom sink and all of the sudden blood is coming out of the faucet and up through the drain. Many people do not view sewer and plumbing systems quite the same way after seeing this movie.
When Moses strikes Egypt with the first plague—turning the Nile river into blood—every Egyption gets its own experience of the scary scene from IT. Not just the river was changed, but the whole water supply. If a household held its water supply for the day in pots and buckets, they were all turned to blood. If a house had running water, there was blood coming out of the faucet. I turned on my faucet today to wash dishes, take a bath, wipe the table, rinse some soiled garments, brush my teeth, wash my face. I expected clear, clean water every time I touched the tap and that is what came out every time.
