Superstition surround Halloween, but for some fear is a factor in their daily life.
When senior Audrey Clark was six years old, her dad and brother were gone on a camping trip, and her mother left her home alone.
While Clark waited for her mom to come back home, something on television caught her attention; the experience scarred her young brain.
“My mom left me to go get something from the grocery store and the movie ‘It’ was on TV,” Clark said. “And there was this clown that was eating children. At first he was all happy, and then all of a sudden he got these huge teeth and grinned and just ate them. And I didn’t know how to shut the channel, so I was just on the bed with the pillow over my face, and I couldn’t stop watching it.”
