Happy Halloween



Think about haunted houses, scary mask, and ugly costumes of scary people. Today tell me a time you have been REALLY scared. If you have never been scared what would scare you.


I have been really frightened, almost scared to death, swimming in the ocean because I saw something and immediately thought of the movie Jaws.

Spookiest night of the year

   Think about haunted houses, scary mask, and ugly costumes of scary people. Today tell me a time you have been REALLY scared. If you have never been scared what would scare you.
I have been really really scared in a haunted house once where they actually reached out and touched you when you were walking.  I HATED it and never ever will go in a haunted house again. I also have been really frightened in the ocean because of the movie Jaws
