Around the 90’s or the 2000’s the owners took dogs onto the property and they found soldiers buried around the property. You can see the apparitions of soldiers walking around the property still. You can visit the home for a tour and they even have war re-enactments where you can see what the war was like firsthand. You can still see General Isaac Ewell and his troops haunting in anguish of defeat.
Around 1863 the Daniel Lady’s House would soon be taken over by general Ewell's army and it was made into a hospital. It was used to house confederate and union soldiers in the same place. Many injured soldiers died due to their wounds. After the war Daniel Lady returned to her home, they found a dead soldier on the second floor. The second floor is the most haunted. You can still see the blood stains on the floor and on the walls, you can still see where the soldiers had carved their names.

Teke Teke, an urban legend about a
schoolgirl, a young woman, or sometimes
even a boy. They appear in the bathroom,
even though their place of death was at a
railroad, they fell and were sliced in half.
Some say that they attack people due to
vengeance, they want vengeance for no one
helping them in their time of need. As the
legend goes, if you hear a "Teke Teke."
Sound, it's them, that’s where they got
their name. If you see them directly, they
will ask you a question, "Do you know
where my legs are?", if you answer with an
unacceptable answer, they will take your
legs! Once version of the story is about a
young woman named Kashima Reiko, she
fell on the tracks and lost her legs. She
haunts bathroom stalls asking people if
they know where her legs are, if you
answer with, "Meshin Expressway.",
demon.", (The last 2 may be the phonetic
root of Kashima's name.) she will accept
your answer, and not rip your legs off, but
if you do answer with an unacceptable
answer, she will take your legs.

WHY DO WE CELEBRATE THANKSGIVING?
Some people ask why do we celebrate thanksgiving? Well here's the answer, thanksgiving day is an annual national holiday in the united states and Canada! Celebrating the harvest and other blessings of the past year.
aa
Americans generally believe that their thanksgiving is modeled on a harvest feast shared by the English colonists otherwise known as the pilgrims of Plymouth and the Wampanoag people.
The feast occurred in 1621.
Everything about thanksgiving seems good, but some things did
happen between the pilgrims and the Indians. They did get along, but
the peace did not last… they got into a devastating war. The two
groups did not get along and the Indians thought the pilgrims were
lying to them.

A famous serial killer
Jack the Ripper, a famous serial killer who lived in London. they had 5 victims, and all of them were female. Absolutely no one, knew who they were, and what he looked like. Until scientists found out Jack the Ripper's identity through DNA tests.
The five canonical victims of Jack the Ripper were Nichols 1888), Chapman September 8, 1888), Stride 30, 1888), Eddowes September 30, 1888), and Kelly 1888).
Jack the Ripper is a famous serial killer, mainly because of the way he would display his victims. (in ways I'm not allowed to explain) Meaning, they were bound to be mentioned in some kind of film or book. In which they did, they were mentioned in the Anime, "Black butler", it might not have been their first time being mentioned in a film or book, but it still added to the theme of what the Anime was about. (The Anime was first a Manga, turned into an Anime.)
Day of the Dead What is it?

those from Mexican heritage in the United
States and around the world. The roots of
day of the dead lead back to some 3,000
years ago "to the rituals honoring the dead in
pre-Columbian Mesoamerica. The Aztecs and
other Nahua people living in what is now
central Mexico held a cyclical view of the
universe, and saw death as an integral, ever- present part of life".
1. What do you think is the most important part of day of the Dead and why?
I think knowing the history behind the celebration is important so that people can know how it is rooted in ancient Aztec beliefs as well as Spanish/Catholic beliefs. 2. What part of the day of the dead is most interesting and why? Setting up the altar with things to remember the people who have passed away. What a great way to positively remember those who have passed on. 3. Why do you think others should learn more about this holiday? I think it's very easy to assume because it is near Halloween that it is just Mexican Halloween or Spanish Halloween, but it isn't. I think any time you have the opportunity to learn about other cultures and traditions, your life becomes richer. 4. What is your favorite part of celebrating the day of the dead I personallydo not celebrate the Day of the Dead but love the focus of positively remembering loved ones.
Interview with Mrs. Buckroyd
