Finally Having A Pipe Organ Repair

By Kevin Scott


After a tiring night trying to find people to have their blood sucked out, Count Dracula finally goes home. He ended early with his work and still has enough time before the sun rises. He has been so lonely sometimes especially when his minions are also still out working. Before he goes inside his coffin to have his sleep, he plays a musical instrument. But when he sat down on its chair, there was a problem. It looked like he needed a pipe organ repair North Carolina.

Old churches usually have this instrument in the choir area. New generations might not be able to know of these anymore since they are more familiar with pianos and keyboards. This is considered to be an antique and is not produced much anymore. They have those tubes at the back and are larger compared to the grand piano.

Now the count is not very familiar with the services. So he humbles down and tries to hold off his instincts and called a handyman to come over so that he would have an idea what needed to be fixed. After his call, this service person arrives with a positive vibe, not even realizing that he is facing a monster, and does his job.

After doing so, he concluded that the musical instrument was already dirty and had dust and cobwebs that prevents it from playing. Now being in a haunted mansion and all, it is not a surprise that dust have been accumulated. The job of Igor was not to clean but rather to assist the count in his daytime activities so it will not be a wonder why it is dirty.

But the handyman did not end there. He also stated that the alloy or tin tubes of this instrument need to be replaced. He found out that due to its delicate material, he was able to find dents and bumps that changes the sound. Other than that, an oxide layer hardened some of those tubes as well also creating rusts.

He found some of keyboard pieces also not producing any sound anymore and needs replacing, too. This is probably due to the constant use of playing. The mechanisms must have dislocated itself from being used too much. Just like a regular piano, a key is connected to hammer like device that hits a string to produce the sound except this produces wind.

When cleaning, he went from down to up, but when replacing, he went the opposite direction. This time he was replacing the pedals. The count never knew what those pedals were for and asked the service individual to start a conversation. While replacing, he explains to the count each of the specific functions the pedals have.

Now to end it, part of this repair is by rebuilding or relocating that instrument. It could be that all the parts are already too old to function or the place where it is standing is the nuisance. When this is done, there will be an improvement to its quality.

He wiped his sweat and smiled at the count, asking him to play. Still trying to hold back the instincts, he pushed his cape back and sat down. He cracked his fingers and gently placed them on top of the keys. He took a deep breath and then finally hears the soothing music again. Dracula was happy and when he turned around to thank the handyman, that person vanished into thin air.
