By: Maggie Fipps Applying to college feels deeply personal. You’re made up of academic statistics, athletic accomplishments, random hobbies, cultural heritage, and so many other small details.  In the college application process, you attempt to fold your three-dimensional person into a flat profile, easily mailable alongside your glossy transcripts and personal essay that attempts to pique the interest of your chosen university.

‘A Haunting in Venice’ breaths new shocks into a classic genre
