    campground I’ve ever seen. It was completely overgrown and it looked like it hadn’t been mowed in 30 years. As we rolled down the overgrown dirt road the moon shone eerily on an old rusted jungle gym. This place look like it was straight out of a werewolf movie. We came to a fork in the road, to the left it looked pick black, but to the right there was an old trailer home with a pork light on. Turning right we rolled past it and park our camper in the first clear place we could find. The little…

    To listen to a piece of music does not necessarily mean that you have understood the ideas and/or emotions musicians and composers are trying to convey.

    Why do people have different interpretations of the word “monster”? Some individuals, envision them as old, Greek mythological creatures. Others believe humanity is bombarded with monstrosity, as if it is a characteristic that we all carry, and very few utilize the meaning of “monster” as a societal or mental fear. I recognize the term as something more standard that many also conceptualize; as ginormous, snarling, blood-thirsty beasts. Beasts are the perfect perception of a monster. To depict…

One of his henchmen, Wormtail, slices open his arm, lets his blood fall into the cauldron, and Voldemort grows from infant to grown man in just a few seconds. The creepy computer-generated Voldemort fetus was utterly terrifying to a six-year-old (I got started on Harry Potter at a very young age). Because of this early…
