MJ's Thriller legacy continues to grow in the U.S. heartland this Halloween

Following up on a news story posted here at MJJC a while ago http://www.mjjcommunity.com/news/200-take-part-in-halloween-thriller

The event celebrating Thriller has blossomed into a much larger spectacle over the past few years with dancers from around the United States participating. I will be there tonight and wanted to share with everyone here the fact that MJ's legacy continues to shine through all generations. There are dance studios in the area around where I live that advertise Thriller as a selling point. The street they dance on in this event is called Commercial Street which dates back to the 19th century and buildings on it have been featured in national "haunted" news and entertainment shows based upon their 'eeriness' and 'haunted' stories.

Here are some videos from recent events:
