What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

Scaring little kids as they came up to the door while I was sitting on the porch and watching them trying to run for their lives and their parents laughing.

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

I really don’t have too much fear. I’m a survivor and I’m not afraid to go searching. I have watched tons of scary movies and I look for that fear. It is exciting.

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

If I won the $13,000 I would use it to pay bills and catch up on anything that I needed to.

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

My real life hero would be my dad, but other than that, my brother would be awesome.
