Ghosts Walked at Hemphill Halloween Party
Mr and Mrs Ned Hemphill hosted a charming Halloween party last Friday night for thirty six friends who arrived sheeted and masked and mingled in a motley crowd. A ghost walk and ghost talk heightened nerves and turned the room cold. Spooky blue light stories and a chilly wind from a cavern filled with bones added to the eerie fun. Bright lights and cars revived spirits as the bravest men escorted the ladies home.
