BOSTON (AP) -- The headmaster of a prestigious Boston school is trying to drive a stake through rumors that vampires roam the campus.Lynne Mooney Teta sent a notice Thursday to teachers, students and parents associated with Boston Latin School. She denied the presence of vampires and said recent rumors were disrupting classes.
Apparently they were serious enough for Boston police to visit. Spokesman Eddy Chrispin said police were called to the school Wednesday to help quell the rumors.
The school was founded in 1635. Its students have included Ben Franklin, Sam Adams and Louis Farrakhan.
If you ask me (thanks for asking me) anyone who tries really hard to stop a rumor is probably the source of that rumor. Kind of like that old adage, "the one that smelt it probably dealt it."
