Scary photos from Batavia

Last week, Chronicle photo editor Sandy Bressner headed out to the Crypts of Campana Haunted House in Batavia to see how a haunted house comes together.

I'm glad it was her and not me. I hate haunted houses.

Why? It's simple. I don't like people jumping out at me, especially high school students who – as we learned last week at St. Charles East – can pass around a sickness faster than mosquitoes in a swamp.

And, if you take a look at the pictures Sandy took last week by clicking here, it seems that while these students might not have the swine flu, the zombiefication process certainly has begun in some of them. And that's communicable, too, folks.
