PEEP SHOW
Information:  The Washington Post sponsors an annual “Peeps Diorama Contest.”  Peeps are those disgustingly sweet, marshmallowy bunnies and chicks (and now pumpkins and ghosts).  You will follow the rules of The Washington Post’s competition. 
Instructions:  
•	Choose a scene from one of the stories:  “The Devil and Tom Walker,” “The Fall of the House of Usher,” or “Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment.”   
•	Create a diorama to illustrate the scene.
•	Diorama MUST be in a shoebox or comparably sized box (12x5x7).
•	The diorama must be decorated to create the appropriate “setting” for the scene.  The outside of the box must also be decorated.
•	Major characters must be played by PEEPS (pumpkins or ghosts).
•	Title must include deftly applied PUNS. (A pun is the use of words that are alike or nearly alike in sound but different in meaning; a play on words.  In other words, you need to incorporate the word “peep(s)” into your title.)  
•	A title for the scene MUST be clearly displayed on the diorama.
•	Extra credit points earned will be based on creativity, effort, and accurate depiction of the scene.
•	I MUST be able to determine your scene by looking at the diorama.
