Hooked on horror since 11—my books, movies, and Halloween obsessions run deep. I’ve even worked haunted houses for the thrill!

What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
My favorite Halloween memory was doing a haunted house with my high school theatre group. I played a possessed demon-like creature, and scaring people was the best part. Seeing their reactions and staying in character all night made it such a fun and unforgettable experience.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I’m smart, quick on my feet, and know when to stay quiet. I love studying and figuring things out, so I’d be the one analyzing the killer’s moves and planning how to escape. I don’t scare easily, and I definitely wouldn’t be the one making dumb decisions.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I’d donate part of it to a nonprofit that supports kids in foster care or who’ve experienced childhood domestic violence. Then I’d save the rest or use it for something meaningful maybe something spooky and fun too. I’d definitely make that “unlucky” money count.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My mom. She’s tough, smart, and always stays calm in stressful situations. If I had to make it through a horror movie with anyone, it’d be her no doubt.
