What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
Growing up in the 60s and 70s Halloween was awesome. We always did it up right. I did the same for my kids, with outlandish decorations and parties. But looking back my favorite experience would be putting paper mache on my brother's face to help him make a werewolf mask for Halloween. He never stopped talking about that. It was over 50 years ago but seems like yesterday.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I am not your typical grandma. I am determined, resourceful, and a badass. Laurie is a goddess. I love collecting swords and daggers, have my 9, and am mechanically inclined. Get out of the way Demon horde.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
Make memories with my 3 sons and 7 grandchildren.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My dad. He's still kicking at 87. He has always been old school, and taught me everything I know. Allowed me to be me and encouraged my uniqueness. He gave me opportunities to learn and grow, to succeed in the predominantly male world as a Master Licensed HVAC Technician and Electrician in a time when it was non-existent. In recent years he has told me that anything I had put my mind to I had accomplished, but that is because of him. He also inspired my love of horror.
