...Today I woke up at around 6 AM. I think I’m just excited for today’s activity, or I’m just excited to see this certain classmate of mine. Last night I stayed up late because I was waiting for her to get home. She said she was there at around 5, but the truth is when she texted me it was around 4. Anyway I’m glad she had arrived safe and sound, so on with the story. I checked my phone and I realized I was earlier than my alarm. I set it to ring at 7 AM. So there I opened the PC and sadly my father took the cord that connects the modem and the CPU. To keep it simple the internet connection was cut. It meant less contact with her and all her accounts. I’m still annoyed because I can’t enjoy the leisure I had before. I consider myself as a web person now, not like before when it didn’t bother me if I can connect to the net or not as long as I can enjoy myself. So there mother gave me 500 pesos for the day. She told me I should give back the change which will always result to nothing either because I’ve spent the excess money or I’ve kept it to myself. I looked for my yellow piggy bank and from there I took 10 pesos. It would serve as my tricycle fare. I went to the town proper, because the terminals are to be found there. When I arrived at the town proper I went to a certain grocery store. I tried to buy shawarma so I would get lesser bills. God they didn’t have any change for my money! I was like annoyed because I was hungry. And I think they too were annoyed because they had...

...It all began after Red Ribbon Week. Our council was brainstorming ideas for our room at the Haunted House. I had suggested the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” theme, which was a very popular horror game. Our council’s number one pick was Slenderman, but I had hope on the theme I suggested. As it turned out, “Five Nights at Freddy’s” was the chosen theme, and I was very excited, because I knew all about this topic. Hannah, one of my council leaders at the time, thought of the overall concept: a night guard warning the children, which would be followed by jump scares, which I agreed to. I added on other details to her concept, such as putting in the desk that is seen in the game and using audio from the game. I was able to immediately sell all of...

...The house was supposedly haunted and that was the selling point for Stacie Billings when he closed on the place. At least one spook house inhabited every town and Wagner House was Gatlin’s. Stacie grew up running past the place, being dared to sneak up the front steps and knock on the door, and occasionally throwing rocks at the vacant windows. In elementary school, he watched Matt Jenkins open the door and venture inside. He exploded through the door after five minutes, white faced and screaming bloody murder. In high school, Wagner House changed hands and opened as a historical museum. Stacie was first in line for the tour through the cleaned and restored house, delighting in the retelling of Wagner’s gruesome history. But new attractions don’t stay fresh for long, especially in small towns, and so after a decade the museum closed and the house went on the market. The horror bug opened its...

...never heard of this house that is haunted so I thought it would be an intriguing topic to look up and write about. Although I have never heard of this case before, I have heard many stories of places around that area being haunted, some including the school I attended. This case is about the plaintiff Stambovsky wanted to purchase a house in Nyack, New York. The defendant Ackley had previously advertised that the house was haunted by ghosts between 1977 and 1989. Stambovsky had written an article about the house on readers digest and also had the house displayed in a haunted tour. Stambovsky went into the contract but did not know the house was haunted due to the fact that Ackley did not provide that information. Upon learning that the house was haunted, Stambovsky wanted to rescind the contract of sale for the home and have his down payment of $32,500 repaid back to him....

...Many enjoy ghost stories with haunted houses because of the thrill. Some stories however, include themes of guilt in which a character is haunted by his past. In the short story “The Scarlet Ibis” James Hurst employs flashback and mood to create the emotion of guilt that haunts the narrator. Hurst utilizes flashback by giving a sense of guilt emitting from the narrator. Throughout the story, the author gives examples of the narrator’s selfish actions, which is how he treats his crippled brother, Doodle. Then, Hurst portrays mood by writing the narrator’s thoughts of what horrible actions the narrator did to Doodle. The narrator feels ashamed of having a disabled brother, and feels the need to push Doodle to become “normal”, and this pressure makes the narrator look back and feel guilt. One way the narrator represents guilt is through flashback. Throughout the...

...Brendon Lee Art 210 Reaction to Corrine May Botz Lecture The lecture presented by Corrine May Botz was very interesting. I enjoyed most of what she lectured about. My favorite part of the lecture was when she spoke of ghosts and the haunted houses. The stories that followed the pictures were very interesting and kind of sent chills up my spine. That was the part of the lecture that had my full attention. It was interesting that these people didn’t just move out, but just adapted and lived with these ghosts. If it were me I would have moved out immediately. Some of the pictures of the homes were eerie, however some of the homes just seemed like normal houses. The only way you could know they were haunted was if the story was placed next to the picture. The other part of the lecture that I found interesting was the miniature recreations of crime scenes. I thought it was interesting how detailed the artists were with all the objects in the home. I wonder how they were able to so accurately place the paint onto the little cups and pieces of furniture. I also thought it was interesting how they created burned homes in the small scale. At times I was not able to distinguish whether the picture was of a real home or of the miniature recreation of the home. Other parts of the lecture didn’t really capture my attention and I found it to be a bit boring. One thing I liked about the lecturer was that she was able to show us the process that she had to go through to get...

...Amazing Autumn The most amazing season of the year is autumn, or as most southerners call it fall. Fall is the time of year when football comes on, the leaves change, bonfires are in full swing, and anything pumpkin and apple is selling. The anticipation of all the little trick-or-treaters, and knowing that family will be around in just a few short weeks makes the heart warm from the inside out. Fall brings Thanksgiving, Halloween, and much more, it also starts to bring everyone’s heart out. Everyone has a bigger heart it seems when fall comes and makes it appearance for a few months, after that it leaves one longing for it until it comes back around. Fall is full of wonderful things that make the season what it is. At the beginning of an East Tennessee fall, all which is heard is “Go big orange!’ All people want to see are the mountains’ trees changing from the bright green and dull green colors into reds, oranges, yellows, and some deep purples. The changing of the leaves’ color and the yelling of Tennessee Volunteer fanatics are how one will know the wonderful season fall is upon us. When fall arrives, Starbucks starts to sell pumpkin spice lattes, and Wal-Mart sells pumpkins to carve. Some will start to see women and men drinking the hot and delicious pumpkin spice lattes and children planning what to carve on their pumpkins. With children planning to carve pumpkins, people will start to see the pumpkins with rather menacing, and some humorous, faces carved into them...

...The Creepy Night By Bling Dog The night was cold and windy. The moon was a full moon tonight. The trees looked haunted and scary with their big shadows. The sky was completely pitch black. There was a haunted house. It had a purplish-blackish roof. The house was painted completely pitch black. The door was an indigo color. The lights were out, but the chimney was puffing out black puffy smoke. On the roof there were some very scary looking bats. They even looked real. On the front door there was a skeleton, and it kept on repeating, "Don't enter! Save Your Soul!" There were vines and plants growing over the haunted house. On a windowsill there was even a fake Chucky. When I started walking up to the door I felt like I was going to explode! I was so freaked out. I started sweating and started to shake. I was there, all alone. I wanted to scream, but it wouldn't come out. I was getting more freaked out by every step. I actually felt like I should turn back and run. But, the haunted house made me feel sort of drawn to it. A bat flew overhead and shrieked "eek!" I went to the doorknob and reached for it. It felt slimy and gooey. I looked and saw it had red stuff on it. I took the red stuff off my hand and then the doorknob. I felt the doorknob and it felt like soft wood. It was a dark maroon color and looked big compared to my little hand. When I opened the door it creaked louder and louder until I finally opened it the whole way. In the inside I smelled something burning...

...My heart would beat out of my chest when I would see these. I would bite my tongue, so I wouldn’t seem like a coward. I wouldn’t understand why I was so scared because it was mainly people dressed up and animatronic zombies, dead brides etc. I couldn’t hold my friends back because of my fear so I would pull up my big big boy pants and go in. A full sprint was necessary at the end. As a kid I HATED haunted houses because I was so scared of them. I would give the house one look and I was practically running in the other direction. When I’m with a group of people I have no choice but to go in. One of the people working in the house had to escort me out and take me to my mother because I was so scared. I would try to back out going into...
