The 7th grade business students got into the spirit of Halloween by researching dead businesses and creating tombstones for them. The research led to a discussion about source credibility as they found many ghost businesses rather than dead ones in their initial search. Dead businesses no longer exist; ghost businesses are still somewhat alive but are not thriving.
