A Scary Tale

It's almost Halloween, and considering that the month of November is the start of the chillest period of the year, a lot of Halloween stories came up on my mind. Some stories are humorous, while others are spine-tingling. But for the purposes of making your trick-or-treat funnier than scary, I'll share a funny school story regarding Halloween.

Every night in various school campuses in Metro Manila, there are ghosts of both living and deceased graduates roaming the campus. Walking around the campus seem like a scary thing, with empty classrooms, closed offices and less students. Those students who remain to endure the night usually attend to org meetings, club practices, extended study hours or night classes. There is a feeling that the ones who once studied there show up and greet you sarcastically, as if they were born again. Nights like these in school can raise your hair up in fear, unless you have company near you.

Around 9 pm, a friend of mine was still in school doing thesis. At the time almost everyone have gone to either their homes or their dorms, and that there were no more classes after 9, but she insisted to continue working on her proposal till the school closes at 10. She logged on to Facebook, and posted a picture of the school hallway in the dark of the night. I then commented on her photo, begging her to go home because the graduates' ghosts are coming to haunt her. At first she resisted, but eventually relented in fear for her life. Nights like these can seem like amazing for her, but in the end, safety is still a priority.

A lot of Halloween stories have been familiar to you, but this may be the best one yet. Anyway, Happy Halloween to all!!
