Every Night Is Halloween Night at Indian School
The next time your kid complains about going to school, say this: "It could be worse. You could go to school in a graveyard."
For the first couple of years, says one parent, everything was peachy for the kids at a school located in a cemetery in Bihar, a state in eastern India.
They used to play and study together and finish their lunch boxes while sitting on top of concrete graves.
But in recent months, the already crowded "living" conditions became worse when the 100-plus tombs were joined by "dozens of fresh
graves -- most of them shallow." As one ghost, who gave his name as Rajesh, explained to First Feeding in an exclusive interview:
It's like a freakin' Grateful Dead concert in here. Apparently, the words "Rest in Peace" mean nothing to these kids.
The ghosts decided somebody had to go. Since for understandable reasons, it couldn't be them, they opted for the schoolkids. Their strategy is working:
"I have stopped going to school after many dead people walked out of their graves and came into my dreams, ordering me to reach school on time," said six-year-old Raqib Ansari.
Because if there's anything worse than a ghost, it's a nagging ghost ...
