Moonlight

Indeed, certain of the most authentic historians of those parts, who have been careful in collecting and collating the floating facts concerning this spectre, allege that the body of the trooper having been buried in the churchyard, the ghost rides forth to the scene of battle in nightly quest of his head, and that the rushing speed with which he sometimes passes along the Hollow, like a midnight blast, is owing to his being belated, and in a hurry to get back to the churchyard before daybreak.

The Oxford Castle Reaper

Fantastic costume I came across in my searches. Can't find many images of this guy. I was hoping to find some video, but nothing yet. He's a part of the Oxford Castle annual Halloween event.

The Haunted

"Mommy, you need to clean my baby. You need to clean her eyes. They're bleeding."

Spent a major portion of the holiday watching Animal Planet's The Haunted marathon. I never watched that program before and it was pure chillsville. Absolutely loved every second of it.

And the animal/pet angle is minimal. So don't be thinking this is about Fluffy seeing dead people. In fact, this program really seemed out of place on Animal Planet. Which is a good thing.

True Story

Melody was babysitting for a wealthy couple. The couple has a huge rolling mansion, and the father requests for the babysitter to sit in the television room closest to the kids, so she can hear them if they happen to call out during the night.

Melody puts the kids to bed, then she settles down to watch TV and wait for the parents to come home. Melody notices a clown statue standing in the corner of the room which looked as though it was watching her. Feeling somewhat unnerved by it, she tried to ignore it, but eventually, the statue sent chills down her spine and it scared her enough to leave the room to call the father. She asked him if she could move the clown statue to another room and after a long pause, the father tells her to grab the kids, run next door and call the police.

Melody thought that the father’s reaction to her request was a bit odd, but she was scared enough to do as she was told. Once she was at the neighbor’s house and the police had been called, she phoned the father again to ask him what was going on, to which he replied, “We don’t own a clown statue.”

Living Heads

Audiences to guillotinings told numerous stories of blinking eyelids, speaking, moving eyes, movement of the mouth, even an expression of "unequivocal indignation" on the face of the decapitated Charlotte Corday when her cheek was slapped.
