What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

Halloween in Salem Massachusetts. A town dedicated to the spooky, macabre, and the bizarre that really comes to life in October. Everything Halloween from ghouls, monsters, witches and pirates and thousands of people enjoying the holiday as much as I do. Meeting Laurie Cabot, Salem's official witch, was pretty awesome. Disneyland of the dead for sure!

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

Probably because I would be the psycho killer. I didn't watch decades of true crime for nothing! And I live just outside of Derry (ie: Bangor Maine) so I have homefield advantage over many.

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

I would love to take my entire family on a haunted holiday to New Orleans. Of course, I still need that 20 foot skeleton from Home Depot too.

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

My dad is and will always be my real-life hero. I inherited my love of Halloween from him. He introduced me to Poe when I was 9 and King when I was 12 and we spent hours in his workshop creating our own Halloween creations for the yard. He was my "person" and the one who enjoyed spooky season as much as I did. He passed in 2004, leaving me to carry on the family traditions, but he still "haunts" me every day and, with every breeze in October, I can hear him saying "let's go watch Nightstalker
