You decide who wins the sinister $13,000, and meets Jamie Lee Curtis, Matthew Lillard, and Kane Hodder!
Dying to know what Face of Halloween is all about?
What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
I love driving through graveyards at night, especially on Halloween. One year, my friends played a trick on me. We were walking through a cemetery when we spotted a man standing by a tree. When we shined our flashlights on him, he was wearing a jumpsuit, a Michael Myers mask, and holding a shovel. Beside him was a pile of dirt—with feet sticking out beneath it. I screamed and leapt over gravestones all the way back to the truck, heart pounding like it was my last night on Earth.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I'd make it to the end of a horror movie because when danger strikes, I don’t freeze—I run, jump, and don’t look back. That Halloween night, I hurdled gravestones like an Olympic athlete when I saw a masked man with a shovel and a body. I trust my instincts, stay alert, and never split up. Survival isn’t luck—it’s speed, awareness, and knowing when to get out. In horror movies, the smart and fast ones live. That’s me.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I’d save a portion to travel to the most haunted places in the country—Salem, New Orleans, and beyond—to fuel my love for all things creepy. Halloween is more than a day—it’s a lifestyle, and I’d make sure everyone gets to experience the magic.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
Not to sound cliché because she’s part of the Face of Halloween this year, but my real-life hero is Jamie Lee Curtis. She’s the ultimate scream queen—smart, fearless, and always ready to fight back. If I had to survive a horror movie, I’d want her by my side, leading with a flashlight and a plan. She’s faced every nightmare and still comes out on top. With Jamie Lee, I wouldn’t just survive—we’d own the story. Final girls stick together! 🔪
