No, there were no ghosts floating around the halls of El Reno High School last week on Halloween, just hundreds of kids getting free candy from student organizations and sports teams during the annual Haunt the High School event.

El Reno Fire Chief Jason Duff said the explosion occurred along SW 27th Street near Airport Road.
New El Reno Airport Manager Scott Law said this group of U.S. military Apache helicopters dropped into the Municipal Airport last week to stay overnight in El Reno.
The squadron is out of Colorado Springs and had made a fuel stop in Liberal, Kan., before arriving in El Reno.
Law said the unit purchased more fuel here and reported they are “gearing up for deployment” but would not say where.
