Huh. I planned to publish the result with a title like “B movie 2: the revenge of the Ken” or a documentary styled “new insights live from, with and about Ken”
But “I think about how I lost you in a crowded house” reminds me more of a melancholic (possibly French) horror film. Nonetheless definitely a B grade movie.

[TW: bees, disappearing GF, very very light “”horror””, general incompetence of me, the author]

  • Something along the lines of:

“Ken lost his girlfriend in the grim house of horrors. Bee horrors. After the end of Bee Movie, the actor bees strived to work alongside humans but could only find jobs at horror houses for practical spooks and halloween.

One eventful evening Ken’s GF visited such a house of horror with him. But she never left it again. Ken still has nightmares about the cloud of bees that surrounded both of them seconds before he couldn’t see Vanessa anymore.

Only black and orange stripes, over and over again. And then, she was gone. Pushing through the crowded air -full of halloween-gruesome Styled bees- he stretched his arm. But all he felt was bees.

Ken tried to scream, but he couldn’t make a sound. Too many horrorbees. She was gone. Lost in a crowd of bees.

Years later Ken managed to get his hands on a particle accelerator. His plan: bringing back Vanessa.

He didn’t understand what a particle accelerator can and can’t do. But this didn’t stop him. As he I injected a ball of compressed horrorbees, enriched with a bit technicium he stole from his MRI appointment, the particle accelerator began to vibrate out of control.

For the glimpse of a second Ken saw the skull of Vanessa. He lost every control over his facial expressions. Then… it was all over.

The particle accelerator fumed. Ken fled the place.

Hours later, Ken’s sweating forehead glanced in his Cellar’s light. Desperate, shocked, he leaned against the wooden table.

Ken flinched after he heard a scratchy noise coming from behind him. His ouija board moved by itself, spelling out a message. After the second try to take notes, it spelled “How dare you! How dare you make that face at me!”. Ken was dumbfounded. But the Ouija board confirmed his fears.

It was Vanessa.

Deeply unsettled and unable to comprehend anything anymore Ken responded with his standard “ what’s the Matter, Sweetheart?”. And because he thought he spelled it wrong, he falsely corrected himself again “Matter?”

Apparently Vanessa’s ghost could communicate with Ken! And she was furious because of Ken’s reaction to seeing her on the particle accelerator’s monitor.

Welp. I’ve tried my… that certainly wasn’t my best. But it was something and that’s enough.

Have a wonderful day/night.

One eventful afternoon, Ken’s GF visited such a house of horror with him. But she never left it again. Ken still remembers the sound of a broom on the sidewalk. He couldn’t find his GF. The bees were everywhere. He kept running in circles. A swarm.
And then, she was gone. Pushing through the crowd -full of halloween-gruesome Styled bees- he stretched his arm. There was something missing. But all he felt was bees.
He tried to scream, but no sound came out. He couldn’t breathe because of the buzz. He knew he would suffocate. He couldn’t see anything anymore. Just black and orange stripes over and over again. And then, she disappeared. Pushing through the crowded air -full of halloween-gruesome Styled bees- he stretched his arm. Only black and orange stripes, over and over again. Then she was gone. Pushing through the crowd.
He couldn’t breathe because of the buzz. He felt like dying. All the noise, everything went blank for a moment, then he opened his eyes, he could see. But everything was black and yellow. He had to escape. He jumped into his car and flew away from the house of horrors. The swarm followed him.

Wow. I am very, very proud of these words. They were the result of about 4 and a half hours of work.

Also, I’ve been getting a lot of questions about the use of the word “horrify” in the OP. It’s a term I coined that refers to the process of taking something innocuous and turning it into something creepy. A great deal of what’s in the OP (and the post’s title and subtitle) is taken directly from a post by Philip Ross. I would highly recommend reading the rest of that post, especially parts where Ross uses the term “horrify.”
