Crucible Vocab List 1Slide2

crucible

The 12 week boot camp required recruits to wake up at 4 a.m., run 8 miles a day, and live on only dried apricots and beef jerky. It was a

crucible

where they were tested both physically and mentally, but they knew that this training was the only hope of surviving the zombie hordes that drew closer every day.Slide3

trafficked

Lola was extraordinarily lucky and unusually smart to have avoided arrest for so long. She had been

trafficking

in illegal Nessie eggs for fifteen years before one of them hatched on the plane to Scotland and she was finally caught. Slide4

abomination

Lucius felt that the new generation of werewolves were an

abomination

. They refused to devour the local villagers, chaining themselves up during the full moon instead. Lucius believed this to be shameful, disgusting, and totally unnatural. Slide5

parish

Wallace looked blearily around at all the people in church. Everyone in the

parish

had lived there for years. Poor Wallace was new, and he was not used to the screams that erupted from the graveyard at night. Slide6

begrudge

Odessa

begrudgingly

gave Horace some garlic to ward off the vampires. She hated him, but she supposed she couldn’t let him become one of the undead. Slide7

deference

The

aliens

respected, and possibly feared, their commander. They showed great

deference

to anything he wanted, which made sense since he vaporized anyone who showed the slightest resistance. Slide8

providence

After escaping the from the horde of the

chupacabras

that had swarmed out of the forest, Lucy said a little prayer. She felt as though

providence

had led her to the unlocked car with keys still in the ignition that let her get away. Slide9

ail

“Ever since my encounter with Nessie, my leg

ails

me whenever it’s cold out,” said Grandpa, showing a large scar along his knee. Slide10

corroborate

Grandma

corroborated

Grandpa’s story about Nessie. She described the long-necked beast that had dragged him under the lake and only let go when he managed to stick it in the eye with his bagpipes. Slide11

contention

There was

contention

in the werewolf pack. Lucius and Hester both wanted to lead, and the whole pack had divided to take sides. Slide12

formidable

Dracula’s fortress was

formidable

. The walls were 20 feet high, topped with razor wire, and guarded by rabid bobcats. It seemed impossible that anyone could get in…or out. Slide13

conjure

The house is haunted because the last owners liked to

conjure

spirits in the basement. Slide14

reckoning

The owners met their

reckoning

one night when they accidentally called up the devil. Now their spirits haunt the house, too. Slide15

prodigious

The beast arose from the swamp, and it was

prodigious

. It was wider than the truck, and it towered above the campers cowering before it.Slide16

afflicted

After Odessa changed her mind and took back Horace’s garlic, she was

afflicted

by guilt.
