The number of haunted houses, both professional and ameture, has reached well into the thousands as of 2016. That means you have many to choose from this coming holiday. The average big house, a professional house with a substantial run time, draws in at least 300 patrons a night. Yet, with the millions of participants every year, I would confidently say that less than half, if even that, are really getting the most out of the experience. Worry not, for i have prepared all that you need to know about having the best experience that you can. The first step to really enjoying a haunt, is to make sure you choose the right one. If you’ve never been to a haunted house, you should look up the ones in your area online. Each big house should have it’s own website, complete with both videos and reviews. Look through these to help yourself get a feeling as to how the haunt operates. You also have to know yourself. Haunted houses are not the place for foolish lies and false bravado. If you are deathly afraid of spiders, don 't buy tickets to Phobia Haunt, which has a sub walkthrough called Arachnophobia, just because some girl you like wants to go. Not only will this make you never want to go to another haunt, but she won’t agree to another date if you peed yourself in front of her because you tried to act macho. Now that you’ve chosen the haunt that you want, it 's time to get ready to go. The season usually begins around September 16, and wraps up November the third, which means

It has been said that the best way to learn is through observance. Virginia Woolf’s “A Haunted House” is the story of a couple who learn about the depths of love. Woolf’s use of repetition darkness, and light assist the living couple in discovering what love truly is. Woolf’s use of repetition reflects the way people learn in real-life situations. While it is enjoyable to think that everything will be learned after one experience, it is much more common to go through many different trials before truly learning what is needed; happiness, after all, cannot be obtained without darkness.

The introduction starts with explaining that there are usually always the same telltale signs of a haunted house. Quite often when someone speaks of a hauntings they mention cold spots, doors unexplainably locking, mysterious footsteps, and strange yet recognizable noises and/or odors.

In her article, Betts uses pathos to appeal to the reader’s emotions by her use of tone and mood, the parts of speech, and foreshadowing.

The Winchester house is one of the oddest and one of most haunted houses in the world. It is located in northern California. It cost over $20,000,000 to make. The owner, Mrs. Winchester, was rich because her family made the Winchester repeating rifle known as “The gun that won the west”. The house has 160 rooms and there are spirits in each room. The builders had to keep remaking rooms that if Mrs. Winchester kept them all she would have 600 rooms. So when they were done with the house, which took over 30 years to make, there were stairs that led to the ceiling and doors that led to walls.
“In the year of 1989, there was a street named Elm, in the state of Wyoming. Few chose to live on that street, and they all knew about the haunted house, up on the hill, on the west side of town, coming off of Elm. Once, I spent the week with some friends and, Halloween came upon us, while I stayed with them.” I was telling my first-grade brother and his friends stories to scare them out of their wits. Besides, no one wants little kids tagging along with you to go trick or treating, when you could go with your friends to Haunted Houses, and not ones set up by the town hall. “We were just about to pass the house, not thinking anything of it, when we heard a moan coming from Old Man Reaper’s house.” Their eyes grew wide with fear.
