VAMPIRE WEEKEND
// ARIANE DE GENNARO
Welcome to Vampire WKND! While we’re unfortunately not the four-person indie-rock band, we are your favorite four-person team of YDN editors excited to present the first WKND spissue of the year! The Halloween spissue explores the spookiest and silliest parts of the holiday — comprised of pieces from fans and haters alike. Did you know that the term “trick-or-treat” actually comes from Charles M. Shultz’s Peanuts comic strip? Neither did we. Or, did you know that Grove Street Cemetery has its very own sex scandal? Trust us, it’s not as weird as it sounds. Did you know that Hallowoads is actually recognized by the U.S. government as a national holiday? Okay, we made that one up. Join us for a Nightmare on Elm Street (aka the Hopper dining hall) and read on, if you dare. Happy haunts, Alex, Ava, Eda, and Jackie
