I work at a high school. Grote Maten Trouwjurken The kids dress up and we, the teachers, do too. Sometimes I keep it simple like a big knife sticking out of my head (glued in of course) with regular clothes. Then I complain about how I have a headache. I have a standard witch costume. The kids love that one. I also have a Dorothy costume when I'm feeling a little "Ozish" and I carry a little stuffed dog. My favorite though was one year when I went as "Lenore" from the poem by Edgar Allan Poe, The Raven. Basically I dressed up as an angel with a great pair of wings I found in a costume store with a huge plastic/feathered raven with red eyes on my wrist. That tied in nicely with my curriculum.
In class that day I tell stories of the supernatural and try to scare Grote Maten Trouwjurken the kids. When I came to my school there were no stories at all of ghostly phenomenon. So, I just made up a story about a ghost rummer on the track in the early morning mists. I had been telling this story for about five years then at the Cocktailjurken beginning of the sixth year a friend of mine took me aside and asked me if I knew the school was haunted. She then told me my entire story, with some added juicy details, right back to me. I knew then that my story telling was a success. I had created a legend for my school and given it some color.
