Ghosts Word Search
Forty words for the dead who will not stay put: the phantom, the specter, the wraith, the wailing banshee and the poltergeist, the seance and the Ouija board, and the famous ghosts of page and screen, from Marley and Banquo to Casper.
Washington Irving published The Legend of Sleepy Hollow in 1820. In it the schoolmaster Ichabod Crane rides home from a party and is chased by the Headless Horseman, said to be a Hessian soldier who lost his head to a cannonball. In A Christmas Carol of 1843, Charles Dickens sends Jacob Marley back wearing the chains he forged in life, made of cash boxes, keys, padlocks and ledgers.
Seances took off in America after the Fox sisters of New York claimed in 1848 that spirits answered them with knocks, and the Ouija board was patented in 1891 and sold as a parlor game. In Pac-Man, released in 1980, each ghost hunts in its own way: Blinky chases straight at you, Pinky aims at a spot ahead of you, and Clyde wanders off whenever he gets close.
