There is nothing scarier than the few weeks that lead up to Halloween — your midterms are (mostly) over and uncertainty about grades, school and the amount of money you spent on study snacks looms over you like an inconvenient spider web decoration.
But there's nothing more terrifying than the hounds that haunt Howl-oween. Today from 3:30–4 p.m. or 4–4:30 p.m., you can spend your afternoon with boo-lldogs and spooky poodles. Legend has it that the ghost of the Hallow-weenie — the most frightening wiener dog in the world — haunts the Lev Bukhman Lounge in the Nest.
These therapy dogs have been on campus every week since September 20 and were even dressed in super cute costumes last week too. Who knows if they’ll do the same thing again? Maybe they’ll put a hex on you. Maybe they’ll tell you a scary story this week — I hear the most frightening thing in the world is the vacuum cleaner.
