What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

My first haunted house was Krampus at Halloween Horror Nights 2016 when I was 10 years old; that is where I fell in love with Halloween. The smells of fog and sounds of screams called to me. My adrenaline became addicting and now Halloween is forever my ideological home. I feel myself within the Halloween months and feel that I can be my true and authentic self.

Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.

For one, I am a medical student at the University of Florida so I do have some brains on me believe it or not. I also have some health experience to patch up any wounds. I am also in a sorority! And… just like Tree in Happy Death Day, I think I could EVENTUALLY outsmart my killer/spiritual entity/animatronic. Lastly, I like to go my own way instead of following the crowd (which usually gets cut off). I stay authentically myself and true to my gut.

What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?

Like I said, I am in Sigma Kappa, a social sorority which focuses on Alzheimer’s research and care. My grandma passed away with Alzheimer’s and I have since wanted to make an impact on both my sorority and medical community by donating all the money to the Alzheimer’s initiatives. I deeply care for my community and believe that what I give in, I will eventually return in positive emotions.

Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?

CLARICE STARLING!!! Silence of the Lambs is one of my all time favorite horror movies (next to FNAF and Barbarian). She is one of the smartest protagonists in any horror movie I have seen and has massive guts to face the truth and use her resources no matter how visceral or disturbing they are. I think she would be a wonderful person to have on my side as she is logically efficient and kind-hearted. YET… she doesn’t take any shit from anyone. SAME WITH JAMIE LEE CURTIS!!!
