A New Tradition

I'm really happy that this was a blog topic because this idea that I'm about to describe is something that I've been thinking about ever since I came to Converse. Since people say that parts of the college are "haunted" I think it would be cool to do something that deals with the hauntedness (if thats even a word) of Converse. Sometime around Halloween I think they should cut all the lights off on campus, well mainly the places that are suspected to be "haunted" and let people get flashlights and walk around. If people believe in the paranormal then they could try to communicate with the ghosts or if not I think it would just be cool and scary to walk around the old buildings at night in the dark. I'm really interested in ghosts and paranormal so I would love this. Also, people could walk around the graveyard on this night. I know people do it anyway but it still would be cool. I would go to the Hazel B. Abbot theatre in upstairs Wilson. I've heard people say that that theatre is haunted and I would love to go in there in the dark. I wouldn't go by myself though because I would get freaked out if I were alone. I would also go to Dexter residence hall because I've heard that is also haunted. I loved learning about the history of Converse and I am definitely buying that book that Dr. Willis wrote. I'm glad we did that as part of our class.

  1. I'm so glad you enjoyed the afternoon with Dr. Willis! And this is a really good idea--maybe you could even have "Haunted Converse Tours" as a fundraiser for a student organization.

  2. Ha. I don't know if I would be able to make it through the night if Converse did that. Scary idea.
