Good idea- in high school we would sneak into a local cemetery on Halloween
night on that scavenger hunt. For proof that you found each category, you had
to have gravestone rubbings of each. Don't know if that is considered taboo
these days (gravestone rubbing that is- I know breaking into a graveyard at
night is!) but growing up in the oldest town in Connecticut, we always did
them in school- even nursery school (the playground was adjacent to the
cemetery, so it was used for activities).
