After work tonight, I had to go out to PCC Sylvania to take a math test. With the overcast sky and the half moon, it was incredibly dark out there. What a creepy campus. I'm glad I chose the web course instead of the two nights a week wandering around in the dark out there.
But it would be a near perfect location for an aspiring horror film producer to set up shop. Just a thought.
I've been in some creepy places over the years. I even worked in one for quite a while. But this time of year lends a sharpness to the creep factor. Our imaginations run a little wilder and a little darker. Perhaps, with the thinning of that veil between worlds, we regain a little of our instinctive fear of the dark and the things we cannot see. Deep down inside, we remember a time before cell phones and electric lights. We catch a glimpse of what lurked just outside the ring of firelight.
And we walk a little faster through the parking lot and lock the doors as soon as we're in the car.
