Urban Legend: Aren't You Glad You Didn't Turn On The Light?

Kelly and Danny were complete opposites. Kelly was a bookworm, who was seen as smart and  responsible and Kelly liked to live life on the wild side and was seen as a party girl.  Despite their differences the two girls were best friends. When they had gotten to college the two roomed together in the dorms.

It was getting close to their first midterms of college. Danny, being who she was, wasn't worried about the midterms. She was invited to a party by a guy she liked and really wanted to go. When two got back the room they discussed their plans. 

Kelly was of course going to stay in the dorm and study. Danny wanted her to come to the party and enjoy the night, but wasn't successful in convincing Kelly. When Danny left she felt guilty she wasn't going to stay and study, but partying is a good way of releasing stress. 

It was already 3 a.m. by the time Danny got back. The lights were off and she figured Kelly was sleeping. She could hear her toss and turning on her bed and didn't want to wake her if she was already having a tough time sleeping.

In the morning Danny woke up to a horrifying site. Above Kelly's bed written on the wall in blood was "Aren't You Glad You Didn't Turn On The Light?" She automatically ran over and found Kelly was cold and was covered in blood.

This would mean the tossing and turning she was hearing when she came in wasn't Kelly having a rough time sleeping. She was being murdered and who knows how long the murderer spent in the room before Danny woke up.

Black Dog of Hanging Hills


Hanging Hills is a beautiful place to hike. It's mountainous and overlooks the city of Meriden, Connecticut within It's got great scenery and there's a saying some people use as a warning. "And if a man shall meet the Black Dog once, it shall be for joy; and if twice, it shall be for sorrow; and the third time, he shall die."- by W.H.C. Pynchon.

On Hanging Hills there are rare occasions where people see a black dog. The dog is said to be nothing unique in appearance. It's a moderate size has black fur, and nothing noticeable about it's appearance. he strange thing about the dog is that when he barks he makes no sound and seemingly disappears when people come close. There's never any evidence he'd ever been there as he doesn't even leave footprints.

Geologist W.H.C.Pynchon had written the earliest accounts of the mysterious black dog in 1898 Even though the legend had been around for much longer. Pynchon mentions he saw the dog and it had followed him to a restaurant and back about the path before he mysteriously disappeared around the area he first saw him. Marshall scoffed and claimed to have seen the dog twice already and the legend did not scare him .

Marshall and Pynchon was looking at a rock formation on the edge of a cliff. They noticed the little black dog approach them, and unfortunately Marshall slipped on the ice and fell to his death. Even though his death is labeled an accident many believe that the little black dog was to blame.

Many people claim to have the same experiences even over a 100 years later. There are even some deaths that people believe are caused from the sighting of the black dog today.
