  • 1.  Ghost Stories

    Posted 10-10-2016 10:23

    Always looking for suggestions around this time of year for some good ghost stories to use with students as an exploration of storytelling.  Anybody aware of good video footage (or audio, podcast, etc.) of a skilled storyteller telling a ghost story or something otherwise spooky and Halloween-y?  

    Also, does anyone have any go-to activities or resources for teaching storytelling generally?  Are people incorporating "The Moth" podcast and the like into their theatre classes?

    I've mined some good campfire stories from this website.
