Hi again! This week's spooky story is about The Pink Lady at The Omni Grove Park Inn. The Grove Park Inn is located in Asheville, North Carolina. It was built in 1913 by Edwin Wiley Grove. The hotel is known for its charm, southern hospitality, amazing spa, and golf course. There have been several famous guests who have stayed at the Inn. The list includes F. Scott Fitzgerald, Barack Obama, Billy Graham, Henry Ford, Macaulay Culkin, Jennifer Lopez, Frankin D. Roosevelt, Helen Keller, Arnold Palmer, Ben Hogan, Tiger Woods, and for my Tar Heels, Dean Smith, Roy Williams, and Michael Jordan. The list of celebrities that have stayed in the Asheville resort goes on, however, there's one famous guest that never checked out. Watch my vlog to learn more about this guest and how she still roams the halls of the Grove Park Inn.
Today was my last day of class … ever. In a week and a half, I will be a UNC graduate. For today’s blog, I wanted to talk about one of my favorite classes at Carolina. By the way, if you thought this blog wasn’t going to involve something spooky, you’re wrong. This blog is about my English 148 class … Horror. Sure, it sounds like a weird class, but it’s really interesting. I took this class with Tyler Curtain and he was ah-mazing! We pretty much just watched scary movies, read scary books, and then talk about them as a class. If you’re an introvert, maybe this class isn’t for you. Participation is your biggest grade. We watched a lot of Stephen King we watched It, Carrie, The Shining, and Misery. We also watched a lot of classic Halloween slashers like Halloween, Friday the 13th, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Have you ever thought about how scary movies make you feel? Is it anxiety? Disgust? Fear? Anger? We really took a deep dive into understanding...
