#WW Spooky Halloween

Halloween Tunes
This song stole a piece from the Munsters, so it counts!
See. Did you know the Munsters Theme Song had words?
Poor Marilyn is so plain compared to the rest of her family.
Here's another fun one for Halloween!
And I'll end with something new. Does anyone watch Stranger Things?

Halloween Freebie
Do you see a ghost in the mirror? I do! Actually, with a good stare, I see several of them, and I haven't been drinking this morning, either. When I toured the very haunted Woodruff Fountaine house in Memphis, I took a photo of the room and caught a corner of the mirror. Many people have reported seeing faces in the mirrors when they look at their photos, so I chose to blow up and play with the editing button on the iphone and voila!
I don't know what you'll see, but I see several images. I see . . .
1.) a Victorian woman in the center of the photo.
2.) an older gentleman looking over her left side.
3.) a white profile to her right that has a fairly clear ear while the top of the head is wispy.
4.) a possible figure in the lower corner across from the white image.
I also see a bumpy pumpkin in the first writing prompt!
I'm currently at a school where the kids do not celebrate Halloween, so I need to pass this revised freebie onto y'all. I am offering two writing prompts with a Halloween theme for FREE!

Vehicles - Here We Go
Today's Music Monday Moves Me Theme is "Vehicles", so I had to find unusual modes of transportation in hopes that no one else will post my same songs.
Let's start with a rocket ship being steered by David Bowie, "Space Oddity."
If one does post my same songs, at least I know they won't post my products,
related to transportation, of course.
Just think. You can click on my link to buy a close read activity about the largest
Maritime disaster in history or float along carelessly in a yellow submarine.
Anyone want to travel with Ringo Starr?
Or, you can zoom on a broom with my Harry Potter Puzzle Pack.
I guess it would be more normal to take your mule for a stroll, one last time.
Poor Sal has been replaced by a steam engine.

Facing History and Ourselves
People make choices.
Choices make history.
Fear
Weary
Sick at heart
What have you done?
Unmindful
Sneer at everything
Finger pointing
What have you done?
Blame everyone but thenselves
Bellicose
Happened in city.
What have you done?
I am weary of reasons.
I have fear and trepidation
To bring hope and inspiration,
What have you done?

Fall Music and Products
Here's my first "fall" Music post. Enjoy Tyler Joseph and Josh
as they fall down. Twenty-One Pilots must have the clumsiest lead singer of all.
as they fall down. Twenty-One Pilots must have the clumsiest lead singer of all.
And the lantern may have fallen in the shed to start
The Great Chicago Fire, so:
Oh, wait. Xmas Dolly said, "Autumn" theme not "fall." Let's try this, again.
Welcome The Mamas and the Papas with "California Dreamin'."
Oh, no! You said, "Autumn." I think I went too far because the leaves have turned brown as opposed to pretty colors, but it felt fall-like to me, and it is the first and only song I thought of with the theme being "Autumn." Please give me one more chance. I'll get this theme right!
Here's Van Morrison with Moondance.
Now, that one fits the theme, as does this:
Finally, my title does read "Fall Music" and no one falls better than
Buster Keaton
