Hope you all have a fun Halloween. Teachers affected by Sandy, we're all thinking of you and sending you good (and dry) vibes.
Anyone dressing up in psych-related costumes for Halloween? Send us pictures and we'll post them!

I put together a whole class of halloween activities for my general psychology class including
-Jeff Milner's back masking site
-Scientific American article "Can you be scared to death"
-Deindividuation article on trick or treating study
It was a lot of fun!
There is also a researcher in London, Ontario who is researching the psychology of horror films. He has a good video clip at http://igniteshow.com/videos/psychology-horror-films that we didn't have time to show.
cool resources! Thanks Julia!
