Spooky story

Hello everyone,

It seemed to me to hear that some of you wanted to tell spooky stories this Halloween. Ok, here goes a couple of them:

1) In 1979 there was the first school shooting in the States that we know of. Brenda Spencer, 16, shooted dead two people and wounded 7 primary school kids and a cop. More info: http://www.cyberspace7.btinternet.co.uk/idlm.htm.
Also, that same year, the band Boom Town Rats, recorded its hit "I don't like Mondays", because it was apparently the reason Brenda gave for the shooting. You can see the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Rt9WtVs9A&feature=related

2) A few days ago, a pretty wierd pet shop opened in New York. Banksy, a street art activist, is the responsible of this Halloween trick. See the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1laBLYjuqM. Or if you want to read more about it go to: http://www.woostercollective.com/2008/10/the_village_pet_store_and_charchoal_gril.html

Enjoy the show!

PS. Tell us a spooky story. You can either choose from something real that can be scary or something made up like an urban legend
