Halloween

My favorite Halloween plans are dressing up then trick or treating and heading to a big party afterwards at a friend’s house. This Halloween will be fun me and my friends are dressing up and walking around there neighborhood and afterwards we are going to go see the new movie Jenifer’s body in theatres and I can’t wait. I have wanted to see that movie for a while and I decided seeing it Halloween night would be pretty fun and scary.


I don’t like candy as much as most people do and I don’t really eat that much of it.

My favorite candy is probably Butterfingers and Chewy sprees. Oh and I like the tropical skittles too.



-History of Halloween-

The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France, celebrated their new year on November. On October thirty-first they celebrated it because it was the last day of summer. This was around the time most people die. Then they soon believed that the ghosts of the dead came back that day and believed the ghosts gave Celtic priests future predictions on what will happen that winter. In celebration they would set a bonfire and Dress in animals fur and cover there heads with a dead animals face. They also burned animals and crops as sacrifices.

-Livonia - Stevenson High School - During the 1960's, a night janitor was finishing up his evening routine by mopping the auditorium for a morning performance. The following morning when the cast of the play arrived, they found the mop lying in the entrance of the auditorium. The janitor never returned home that evening and had made no contact with his family or the school. Years later, staff members claimed to have seen the janitor walking around the school whistling.

-Schoolcraft - The Harrison Cemetery - the site in question is the "glowing tombstone" , at a distance you can see one tombstone glow in the dark. The tombstone glows until you get to the edge of the cemetery, then it goes dark. You can’t really pinpoint the actual tomb and there are no lights around to illuminate it either. Some say it’s made out of phosphorous and others say its mercury vapor reflecting off a shiny tombstone. but it doesn't explain why it goes dark when you get within 500 feet. The only close house to it is 1/4 mile away. The cemetery is named after Bazel Harrison, who led 21 of the first settlers of the Prarie Ronde Kalamazoo County. Both him and his wife martha are buried there.
