Robin Hood and Little John walkin' through the forest--

alright! so! early robin hood ballads and narratives don't have an origin story for little john, but a later ballad (robin hood and little john) does. they fight on a bridge in it, but I like looking at illustrations, so I've swapped out the bridge for that tree peaking out of the panel in the first panel bc I enjoy louis rhead's illustrations a lot.

this is some kind of introduction scene after they fight and climb out of the river!

Robin Hood & Little John (edited by Stephen Knight & Thomas Ohlgren)

#read something that compared robin hood and little john to gilgamesh and enkidu and oh my god. christ. fuck!!! okay then #robin hood #little john #outlaws in the woods tag #komiks tag #some other text was like 'ah yes robin hood was young and blond' i am choosing to ignore that. he's young and filipino and has dark hair #its my comic and nothing i do will be as objectively terrible as that fucking 2018 movie #or honestly a lot of the movies that decide they want to have an opinion on the crusade #'katabay why did you draw little john like cassius' tbqh i forgot how i was previously drawing john's hair #it'll happen again 😔 but maybe not. i want to draw robin hood more ngl.

Haunted Schools

Packing a bunch of teenagers into a small area is not a natural, not to mention rational, practice. The angst of all those concentrated adolescents is apt to promote all manner of psychic manifestations. Considering the nature of the school beast, the fact that many are considered haunted should not surprise anyone.

John J. Houghton was one of Augusta's earliest philanthropists. His will left $4,000 to the Augusta City Council for the purpose of constructing a free school for poor children. Houghton Institute opened in 1851 and served its purpose well for decades. But it was one of 700 structures destroyed by a massive fire in 1916. A new school, Houghton Elementary, opened the same year, and some remains of its namesake were disinterred and buried beneath a tile floor in the school foyer, where a plaque described Houghton's generosity. The new school was a grand place with high ceilings and hardwood floors, and for eighty-four years much of the student body believed it was haunted by its benefactor.

One student said many believed that Mr. Houghton pushed kids down the steps, and this child admitted to racing down the halls in fright. He also said that doors banged loudly, too loudly to be natural, when they closed. One door closing sounded like five. Even Houghton's principal, William Holmes, confessed that when he worked alone on Saturdays, he doubled-checked to be sure that the doors were locked.

A great legend died when the school closed in December 2000. It was combined with another facility, now named Craig-Houghton Elementary School on Fourth Street. So far, the ghost of Mr. Houghton has not appeared in the new building. But perhaps he's only laying low, getting accustomed to his new surroundings.

Hilsman Middle School in Athens was named for Patti Hilsman, Clarke County's first middle school principal. Miss. Hilsman died on August 28, 1964, and the school was dedicated the following year. To honor its namesake, a portrait of her was hung in the school library. She is depicted as a young woman with piercing blue eyes and red hair piled atop he rhead, wearing a white Victorian dress.

Rumors has circulated for years that the years in the portrait moved and followed passing students. However, in late October 1990-yes, just before Halloween-students changing classes were taking a shortcut through the library when someone exclaimed that Miss. Hilsman's eyes moved. Suddenly everyone saw the same thing. Consensus was soon reached that it was her birthday and that she was coming back!

Hysteria swept the school, and many students said that when they walked on the wrong side of the hall, Miss. Hilsman would correct them, saying, "Walk on the right side of the hall." Once on hall duty-always on hall duty.

Darlington High School in Rome has a haunted structure, the Louis K. Customs Dormitory. The story goes that the property was once an amusement park or hair grounds. A little girl became lost there and died of exposure. It's her spirit that haunts the dorm.

One summer a resident teacher was lone in the building when she heard a childish voice singing and the sound of a small girl running through the halls. A check od the form and grounds revealed nothing. One night a student was awakened by a little girl who begged for assistance. Terrified, the student threw pillows at the ghost, the projectiles passing through it and rudenly awakened a roommate.

Lithonia's original school was constructed around 1865 on Stephenson Road near a rock quarry. Although the school has now been converted to a private home, its old ghosts remain. A teenage boy and a brooding hooded figure are said to frequent the entry hall, and an eight-year-old girl has been encountered. The schoolmarm's presence is announced by the rustling of heavily starched dresses.

Newnan's Northgate High School has a pleasingly scented ghost. Legend has the land belonging to a plantation owner who killed a slave one morning at breakfast. The heavenly smells of bacon and eggs are often detected wafting through the halls.

Jordan Vocational High School in Columbus has multiple ghosts The spirit of a teenage girl haunts the auditorium. Apparently, in life she had become overly enthusiastic while watching her boyfriend perform in a play and jumped up to shout his name, only to plunge over a balcony railing to her death. Her ghost now roams the stage and balcony. Encountering that spirit seems preferable to meeting the ghost that haunts the construction room. There is a metal rod pierced the heart of a young man, and he can be seen clutching his chest. Certainly, many of the stories of paranormal activity at schools are generated by the overactive imaginations and mischievous minds of adolescents. But can that really be the explanation for all of these tales of ghostly encounters? Or could it be, just maybe, that there are some Georgia residents whose presence can still be felt among us, even after they have departed our fair state and this life as we know it?
