Construction workers in Ohio were shocked to discover that the figure of a woman hanging from a fence was not a Halloween decoration, as initially thought, but a real dead body.
Ohio police told reporters the body was discovered at 8:30am on Tuesday in Chillicote, according to the state’s local outlet WKRC. The shock value was all the greater because it’s Halloween time, when people engage in pranks and make-believe. But this was anything but that.

THE NEW RED PLANET!?
Every new photo and fact about Pluto makes things more exciting.. more intense.. more mysterious..
A survey by smartphone maker HTC found that more than three quarters of those asked (76%) said they judged their peers based on what they saw on their Instagram, Snapchat or Facebook profiles.
In order to make our own pages and lives appear more exciting, 6% also said they had borrowed items to include in the images in order to pass them off as their own and make others jealous.
More than half of those surveyed said they posted images of items and places purely to cause jealousy among friends and family.
Behavioural psychologist Jo Hemmings said the trend was unsurprising given the rise of social media.
I think we have seen our friends, family, and maybe if you look in the mirror hard enough, yourself as well do this very thing..
Try you best to make things seem fine.. Seem okay.. But all the while, the darkness of sad and fear creep in. You don’t want to express the real you on FACEBOOK though.. people may not ‘like’ ..
I heard about a study the other day concluding–YES, CONCLUDING the talking head on the news said–that people who drink their coffee black are more likely to be psychopaths..
I like my coffee with cream but on occasion have consumed it black. I suppose those days, more than others, I was likely to have psychopathic tendencies that would not rear their heads when I drank with cream?
Get this, if you like radishes and celery, along with black coffee, than you are most likely a psychopath!
From the abstract:
Two US American community samples (total N = 953; mean age = 35.65

36 measures and answered a number of personality questionnaires assessing Machiavellianism,
37 psychopathy, narcissism, everyday sadism, trait aggression, and the Big Five factors of
38 personality.
The study goes on 45 more pages.
And lots of people are suddenly FREAKED, especially those who either drink their coffee black or are dating or married to someone who does. What secrets.. what scary plot twists await us..
As you’ve probably guessed by now, I clearly drink only black coffee myself, as I believe all quality humans should. And if you think that’s a bit of a strong statement, consider this: There are a number of proven benefits to taking your coffee black — the way the gods intended it to be.
She goes on to say that people who drink their coffee black are more efficient at their time, in better health, thrifty, have wisdom, and don’t take part in useless social rituals.
Is Beca Grim a psychopath? Am I one 50% of the time when I grind my beans black? Are you?
Either this study one of the dumbest ever *I think* or I am in denial and .. well you may be too.
Be scared. Once you go black, a psychopath will never go back.
This is a good video.. 100 years of Halloween costumes that women have worn.
Yes, the 1980s were scary because of the style.
But in my opinion, the 1925 edition of Halloween may be the creepiest and more frightening of all.. it was intended to be fun. But as time beats on, the look has become sinister and mentally disturbing..
