Ghost in da Hood
There have been many different versions of horror film, but never like this one. It all starts in Compton where two brothers are moving into their new place together. While they are packing the couple is noticing that people are looking dolorous and depressed, when they are looking toward them. O’Shea tells Eric that they are probably having a bad day and they will soon warm up to us. While they are moving their possessions into the house Eric feels a strange presence around him, as if something is watching him.
The next day during supper someone knocks on their door. When they answer it they notice it is one of the neighbors from yesterday. The woman says, “Hello welcome to the neighborhood, I’m Felicia.” Then O’Shea said, “Thanks you’re actually the first person to visit us.” Felicia says, “Not to worry that people around here are shy.” Felicia then tells them that she has to go and both of them said, “Bye Felicia.”
By next week when O’Shea was in the basement in doing some laundry, he stumbled upon a secret door behind the gas tank. When he went inside the secret room it felt cold and ominous, as if someone was watching from behind. As O’Shea was going in deeper he noticed something at the end, there was a red figure. When O’Shea was coming closer to the figure he wanted

to get out but it seemed as if the figure bided O’Shea toward it. All of a sudden Eric went to the basement to check on O’Shea. Eric noticed the secret door open and he screamed, “Yo bro O’Shea where ya at!” O’Shea then gained control back of his body and ran toward the exit while screaming, “Eric there’s some crazy stuff over there!” O’Shea then makes it to Eric and explains to him how there was a red figure in there. Eric doesn’t believe him thinking it is a joke and says, “Bruh you be trippin’.” He then sees the fear in O’Shea’s eyes and sees he is telling the truth. So the next day they call a paranormal expert to inspect the house.
When he arrived at the house he introduced himself saying, “Hello I’m Donte Sherman,” The brothers both introduce themselves and O’Shea tells him what happened to him last night. As he is telling the story Donte says that he wants to go down to the basement to see where this occurred. Donte then goes down to the secret door and feels a sense of depravity near it. Donte then pulls out one of his monitors and gives it to Eric. While Eric is holding one of the monitors it reached ineffable scales of power, resulting in the monitor to fry up and catch fire. This in turn makes all of them to run outside the
house. When in their front yard Donte tells them they don’t have a ghost, instead demons. O’Shea asked, “Wait so you sayin that in that room there are demons?” Donte says, “Yes and you two can deal with yourself,” after he said that he jumped into his car and went as far as possible from the house. O’Shea and Eric than felt a sense of loathsomeness toward Donte, because of his abandonment. That night they had nowhere to go so they stayed the night at a Best Western. There they went on the computer at the front office and looked up how to take down a demon. From one site they learned that they needed Holy water. O’Shea and Eric then went to a Catholic Church the next day to gather a large supply of Holy water. O’Shea had a stronger feeling of fervor because the demons already tried to mess with him and all he wanted was his brother to be safe. That night they went to their house with water guns and balloons full of Holy water. They then stomped their way to the basement to reach their enemies face to face, but when they got down there the door was sealed close and the couldn’t open it. O’Shea then said, “Is this a joke have we been imagining this or I don’t know.” Eric answers him by saying, “This can’t they have to be messing with us right now.” When suddenly Eric gets thrown across the room and from behind Felicia emerges from the shadows. O’Shea then screams, “Eric are you alright!” Eric then doesn’t answer making O’Shea angry and he starts to attack Felicia. Felicia deflects his attack with ease and says to him, “If only you left like all of the others in this house, but no you needed to know what was in this house, well you’re looking at it.’ When all of a sudden Eric emerges and pours a bucket full of Holy water of her head. O’Shea then stands up and says, “Bye Felicia,” before he can shoot her with the rest of the Holy water within his squirt gun, resulting in her final defeat. It has now been over two years since the brothers moved into the house and they are still there till this day. Some wonder why they would stay in the house, but O’Shea said, “I didn’t want to move my stuff again into another house.”

Lewiston, Idaho, once an important port for miners traveling in search of gold, is now a town of about 30,000 people. Few of the people who live in the Lewis-Clark Valley speak of its over one hundred year history. However, there are still parts of the community where one can explore and see the age of the town. Downtown Lewiston is one of a few areas where people can go exploring. They wander the streets, admiring the buildings that stand proudly above them. One building in particular ties a unique history into the downtown area. Morgan’s Alley stands at the corner of Main Street and D Street, overlooking the cars and people passing by. On the outside, it looks like an ordinary, older building. On the inside, it holds secrets of the past and possibly a ghost.
Strange things began to happen the next couple days. First, Joey was in the living room of Grandma’s house making a jig saw puzzle.

Joey heard the horse walk away and a little while later Grandma’s mailbox blew up. Next, Ms. Wilcox’s outhouse was destroyed by a cherry bomb. Then, a dead mouse was found floating in the bottle of milk that was delivered to the front
The artist John leech was the responsible to illustrated "the Ghost of Christmas Present" used in the first edition of a Christmas Carol, 1843, and wrote by the popular Charles Dickens. the illustration subject is about Christmas and was made of watercolor over pencil on paper. I believe that the importance of this art is to show a realistic composition about what's going on the story using Christmas symbols. Leech was representing a Christmas God who seems to brings help or an advice to the old men who seems insecure, also there is a spirit above the old men head, who seems like if is watching the conversation.

A Harvard student going to work in Baltimore in the eastern district for one year, writes about his learnings and findings from firsthand experience. Some people say cops are not prepared when they leave police academy. From the book it says police officers learn more in the first two years than they will learn at the police academy. Becoming one of the deadliest profession cop’s duties are eye opening and even jaw dropping. Cops are known either has “gatekeepers” or even “pigs” in slang term. What if there were no cops in America? What would happen if they all just vanished and there was no one to protect
The ending of the story tells the reader that there was nothing in the red room, all that time the reader was convinced that there was some sort of ghost or spirit present at the time so because you find this out the tension level goes down. The tension also increases as the old man describes how fear is what he discovered in the red room describing it as "a power of darkness". This spooks the reader.
Given the title of this work, you may mistakenly believe (as did at least one prior owner of the book copy I had read from, if their annotations are any indication) that this is a literal investigation into all things paranormal and society’s investment of that which goes bump in the night. In “Ghostly Matters: Hauntings and the Sociological Imagination”, Avery F. Gordon offers academics and ethnographers – those whose profession it is to unearth the secreted relationships between the signifier and the signified, the subject and object, the real and unreal - a disturbing ghost story that should leave those of us in the field who came claim these titles with both the deepest of darkest chills and, through a new method of revealing and acknowledging the ghosts we feel, the hope for something akin to redemption. (In this way, perhaps, Gordon accomplishes many of the same feats as Stephen King and Edgar Allen Poe).
The vicious dog ran straight for the grandmother 's house and knocked on the door. "Who is it?” said the grandmother. The dog replied, "It is Little Red Riding Coat. I have your care package." "Oh that is great. Just push the door open, it is unlocked," said the grandmother. The dog ran inside and bit the grandmother enough to make her pass out and dragged her out of the house so Little Red Riding Coat would not notice. He put on the grandmothers clothes and laid in bed like how the grandmother was.
Arriving at Lacey’s house I walk to the backdoor letting myself into the house. Lacey was putting on tanning lotion in the kitchen, “Lacey,” I called to her, “my mom wants me to pick up snacks for the beach, do you want to go into town with me?”, “Sure,” she replied, “do you mind if my cousin comes with us?”, “Of course I don’t mind,“ I answered, “but we have to get moving, my dad only left me the car to use ‘til noon.”
I’m a huge fan of horror films and some of the things I really liked in this one where the music and choice of scenery. From the beginning of the film to the end, the music sounds very creepy and gives you a feeling that something is always about to happen that will have you jumping out of your seat. I really see the music as a hit or miss when it comes to horror films and I saw it here as a hit. Regarding the scenery the film for the most part takes place in a house that’s in the middle of nowhere, that gives you

Alice and Jerry figure out the truth, and Alice realized the error of her ways. Jerry was captured, and Alice searched for a way to find Jerry back in his apartment.

Paranormal Activity was filmed in 2007, yet it was not widely released until 2009 when Paramount Pictures purchased the rights. However, fans of the film are the reason this film became an overnight hit. Paramount began showing the films in college towns to generate publicity among college-aged viewers. Once the company realized how successful that tactic was, they launched a campaign on the website, Eventful. Movie-goers would demand the movie in their city, and if the film got more than one million demands, Paramount would widely release the film. It took less than a week for this to happen and the film began rolling out into all major markets. By doing this, Paramount eliminated the risk that the movie would not open well, with over one million people already wanting to see it. Furthermore, it provided fans with a stake in the film, as Eventful’s CEO Jordan Glazier explains in Advertising Age: “The lesson there is engaging your audience as part of the process before you even roll [your product] out gives them a sense of ownership.” Paramount had guaranteed themselves success by involving fans in getting the movie distributed, and the film would go on to be the most profitable Paramount Picture
A determination is a driving force that helps people through rough times in their lives. Without determination, people would no longer strive for their goals. Throughout the short story, ‘Then Later, His Ghost,’ Sarah Hall shows how strength and determination can get you through these tough times. This theme is made clear through the severe setting the characters are faced with and her use of symbolism.
