I was forced to go to various therapeutic boarding schools as a teen btwn 1984-1986. The worse place I was Elan School. The scariest thing they forced us to do as punishment to participate in what was basically a fight club. After numerous stays at both residential schools, psychiatric hospital stays, & wilderness programs, my parents figured if they were going to pay $65,000 a year, I might as well go to Choate Rosemary Hall. I’ve had horrific experiences that took me a decade to get over

I don’t find that depiction creepy at all. It looks like a goblin ore than it looks like the devil. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve seen depictions of demons that look far worse.

Despite its popularity, it's important to note that using a modded version of the game like Carrom Pool Mod Apk may not be endorsed by the official game developers and could potentially violate their terms of service. Players should exercise caution and consider the ethical implications of using such mods, as it may impact the integrity of the gaming community and the developers' ability to sustain and improve the game.Visit https://thepoolapk.com/aim-carrom-apk/ for more info.

The cryptoindustry's decentralized nature is a fundamental aspect of its appeal. Unlike traditional financial systems, cryptocurrencies operate on distributed ledger technology, where transactions are verified by a network of nodes rather than centralized authorities. This decentralization promotes financial inclusivity by allowing individuals to access financial services without the need for traditional banking infrastructure. It also enhances security and transparency, reducing the risk of fraud and manipulation, although regulatory challenges remain a concern.Visit https://cryptoindustry.com/ for more info.

I’ve lived in a hounded house and it’s a very distinct feeling. Something you can’t explain, but you can FEEL if. Like a 6 sense. I’m not afraid of the dark, I live in my own 1500sqft house with my 6 yr daughter, on a dead end street with woods surrounding us. I’ve never felt “unsafe” or had a creepy incident.

In our Middle Eastern culture, there are these creatures called “Jinn”; some people believe when a child is born, a Jinn is born with them and looks like them and lives with them, etc. Actually, they do not necessarily look like them and CAN make themselves look like you or anyone they want. (Creepy, right?) there are similar versions from all over the world. It’s a very interesting topic. can’t help it, LOVE supernatural stuff.

My husband told me this story when he was there in 2007-2010. It’s called OP rock. Very haunted. But they tell you not to disturb the ground, Russian soldiers were buried there.
