𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘆 𝗖𝗖𝗧𝗩 Capitolians have been busy lately as mid-term has newly reached its culmination, nearing the end of the semester. The academic requirements to keep up have been challenging for all to keep up to, thus causing most to grind harder and constantly dwell inside their heads— ignoring those that lurk in the shadows. At school, while nestled in the arms of books and papers, most Capitolians never noticed or bothered to investigate the black, or white, figure at the corner of their vision—or during periods of silence reverberating the red hallways, they are too occupied with their thoughts to hear the whispers of the walls confessing secrets of those beyond bound to physicality. But if you did sense them, they sure knew you did. Grab your coziest blankets and switch your lights off, for together, we will shed light on the shadow-shrouded presence within the university. With the second airtime of Spooky CCTV, the publication serves you a hearty midnight snack consisting the stories of ones brave enough to share. Now, let your fears be known, press the video play, and never look behind you. Sleep tight, then, if you can dare… Happy Halloween Capitolians! Words by Josua Marcelo B.
