Title: Teacher dies in fall from Palmer House stairwell
Post by: Foxy Brown on November 01, 2010, 03:36:06 PM

Megan Duskey was looking forward to a Halloween night out in Chicago with some of her best friends.

The Chicago schoolteacher and a group of girlfriends she had known most of her life had scored tickets to a sold-out Haunted Hotel Ball at the Palmer House Hilton, and Duskey was going as glamorous superhero Silk Spectre from the movie "Watchmen."

Duskey, 23, and her friends were there half an hour on Saturday night when she playfully attempted to slide down a banister rail and fell four stories to her death, the Cook County medical examiner's office said.

Woahhh.... o ____ o
You'd think- if you were going to attempt to slide down a rail- you'd do it from a lower floor! Must of been drinking-- or just failed to realise there was a possibility she'd fall backwards to the ground!! :panic:
