Whispers From The Other Side
Legend has it that on Halloween night, the veil between the living and the dead grows thin. The spirits of the past wander freely among us, playing their eternal games of hide and seek. They peekaboo from behind gravestones, whisper through the autumn leaves, and sometimes... they watch you while you sleep.
The game of Peekaboo has ancient roots. What now seems like an innocent children's game was once believed to be a method of communicating with entities from beyond. When you cover your eyes, you temporarily enter their realm. When you uncover them, you might not be the only one looking out...
Halloween's Most Haunted
Throughout history, certain locations have become infamous for their spectral residents who enjoy playing peekaboo with unsuspecting visitors. These ghosts reveal themselves only briefly before disappearing into the shadows again.
- The Winchester Mystery House - Where doors and windows open to reveal nothing but brick walls
- The Stanley Hotel - Inspiration for "The Shining," where ghostly children invite guests to "come play"
- The Tower of London - Home to royal ghosts who peer from windows when least expected
- The Myrtles Plantation - Where a ghost girl appears in photographs, playing eternal games of hide and seek
- Eastern State Penitentiary - Where inmates still watch from darkened cells
Remember, if you feel a sudden chill this Halloween, or catch movement from the corner of your eye, it might just be a playful spirit saying "Peekaboo, I see you..."
