One passed over my area while I was at university, and the professor whose class we were meant to be in just said the day beforehand that he wasn't even going to bother scheduling anything for the first hour because he didn't expect anyone to be in. There's a famous hill-top cemetery in the city, and sure enough I saw basically all of my classmates there too

That was an unexpected dark turn. Glad you live to tell their story!

Strange things happen under an eclipse, and strangest of them all was a class full of undead attending lectures

And keep in mind that the difference between a total eclipse and a partial eclipse is massive. It’s worth it to find a spot that is in the line of totality.

Yep, total eclipse is metal as fuck

I got to see one about 7 years ago. Made a whole vacation of it, and was not disappointed. In the darkness, all the birds stopped singing. And to top it off, at the motel I stayed there was a cleaning lady yelling at me to get back into my room because this was a sign from her god saying this was the end of days.
