Haunted and Enchanted.

Who could forget the fictional high school dance wherein Marty McFly dated and parked in the car with her own mother, in the movie Back to the Future?

It was the Enchantment Under the Sea,  a high school dance that was held at Hill Valley High School  on Saturday night, November 12, 1955 in which Marty McFly's parents, George McFly and Lorraine Baines fell in love after their first kiss.

High school dance or prom is always enchanting, no matter how it's themed and called.  It's usually the party where a guy gets to wear his first formal coat and tie, and for the girl, her first formal long gown.

It's also the event where guys and gals first learn slow dancing.

No matter what time zone and what year it happens, high school dance and prom always remain an affair to remember.

But high school prom is not just the stuff teens remember all summer long and all their lives.

There's the "haunted part" of adolescence. That period in one's life in which watching horror movies on vacation nights adds gory and glory to growing up.

That's why Hollywood never ceases to come up with horror films: the Halloween, Friday the 13th,  the Scream series, the Saw, The Haunting, The Blair Witch Project, Nightmare on Elm Street, Poltergeist, The Ring, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, The Shining, The Exorcist, and the old Dracula movies are just some of those memorable and haunting horror classics. 

Of course, telling scary stories make camping and sleep overs more fun, too, even for adults.
