The television series called, “The Walking Dead,” is cur-rently high in popularity. It is not uncommon at all to see faces full of blood and gore. Have you ever wondered who is responsible for creating these masterpieces? Makeup artists can sometimes spend up to three hours working on perfecting the look of zombies, clowns, or simply applying makeup to models on a runway. To become a makeup artist, one must be trained through a school of cosmetology, which could take up to several months to a year to complete. A day in the life of a makeup artist includes consulting with directors or performers, duplicat-ing makeup from prior days so the performers’ appear-ances remains the same, and reapplying makeup as needed. The average annual salary is $29,000.

Halloween StoriesThe Evil DollMy mother [...] had a large Shirley Temple doll when she was little whose eyes she says followed her, literally. She hated that doll, and it ended up buried somewhere, only to resurface when she was much older. She would not tell me the rest of the story until I begged her, and made me prom-ise not to ask my aunt about it, and to not mention it again after she told me.She gave the doll to my cousin. Why she did this, I can’t imagine. She says that she had convinced herself that she was imagining things as a child herself, but seriously?Anyway, my cousin is playing with the doll one day, when my aunt comes in and finds the doll TALKING to my cousin. So, she promptly freaks out, and takes the doll away. My uncle buried it, in pieces, as it continued to laugh up a storm.That stuff is evil.I asked my aunt about it (against my mom’s wishes), and she simply said, “I don’t want to talk about it.”

ConfusionSo, as a little girl, my friends’ mother used to talk about this nice old lady who used to sit on her bed and stroke her hair as she fell asleep. Now, the parents thought she was just imagining it, and other relatives called ‘ghost’ — but on the whole they just put it down to the overactive imagina-tion of a little kid.THEN — one day, their housekeeper sees a woman coming out of the little girls’ bedroom. So she runs after her and grabs this real-life woman, who is in her 80’s and very confused.Turns OUT that this woman used to live in the house and moved nearby, but since they didn’t change the locks when they moved in, she kept letting herself into the house at night and gently petting my friends’ mom as she fell asleep!
