Oh! But you\u2019re alone in the room. What was that then? Probably simply hallucinating.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><b>R44.1 visual hallucinations- <\/b>These could get really scary at any time of the day, especially at night. You almost spoke to the person and turned around to catch no one there! Certainly spooky.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><b>F40.210<\/b> <b>Arachnophobia- <\/b>Creepy spiders and cob webs around. Perfect set up for a Halloween night!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><b>R46.1 Bizarre personal appearance- <\/b>Yes! Today you may see a dozen people out there dressed in the most whacky manner. This could well fall under the bizarre appearance category.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><b>F51.5 nightmare disorder- <\/b>Getting recurring dreams of being surrounded by vampires and wanting your blood or you out in a graveyard all by yourself? Well definition of a nightmare differs with each.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Now that you have read through the spooky codes, are you going to be dressing up as one of those or simply try watching a movie with one of those characters? Let us know how if you have any additional similar codes. So trick or treat!!! Beware and have fun!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time for Pumpkin carving!
