<div class="floatleft">(http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/042/5/6/university_of_stirling_by_younghappy-d39awtz.jpg)</div><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 11pt;">A cool wind swept through the campus of Castleton State College in Vermont, sending the pretty fall leaves that cast their brown, yellow and red splashes of color scattering across the sidewalks.  The day was overcast, unable to make up its mind if it wanted to rain or be content to obscure the sun, making the leaves stand out even more as they scattered about a black car parked near the Calvin Coolidge Library.  The car was unspectacular, featuring a regular Vermont license plate, and besides a parking sticker and a few other tidbits of personalization, the car was fairly new and unremarkable.  One of those tidbits, however, was a map and five tickets to a haunted house in nearby Hubbardton, won via a contest from the campus station, WIUV.<br/><br/>As the five girls made their way to the car to head for the haunted house, a young lady in gothic attire approached them, "Hey, you girls heading for the haunted house?  I think you'd much rather go here.  No little kid scares here, this one's for 18 and over only."  She handed the girls each a ticket, her hand jingling from all the jewelry and kit she wears, and she smirks to each of them, "I'm sure you'll all have a good time."  With a flutter of her black dress, she disappeared, leaving each girl to look at the ticket.  The ticket involved a further drive, but it had in nice bold print with red lettering: 18+ ONLY.</span>
