I went to the 217 Terror Haunted House in Roodhouse, last Halloween. This was my first time going to the haunted house.

The line was right beside the road/parking lot where cars kept searching for spots to park in. To the right of us was a rocky face leading to a dark, concealed forest.…

    As president of my high school's Key Club, it is my job to organize service activities for our members to volunteer in.

    Women always have kept the most important part in any societies. Naturally, women have been responsible for the perpetuation of the society, and they also can be seen as the focal point of worship in some ancient religions. However, societies of ancient Rome viewed women differently from some societies of past eras. By examining how men see women, and women see themselves in “Haunted house” by Plautus, we can see that women was only considered as the secondary gender in ancient Rome societies.
