I’m obsessed with 💀’s & skeletons. I read & watch extreme horror & splatterpunk. Things no one would expect from a substitute teacher!

What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
1974 I was 5 years old and learned about the Trick Or Treat Murderer who killed his own son with a poisoned pixie stick. I am obsessed with true crime!! I think this was the start of it, that and America’s Most Wanted.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I know better to go upstairs, into the woods, or lock myself in a room. I’ve seen enough horror shows and read enough books to see how the story would play out. I don’t trust anyone!! Always look over my shoulder and have a weapon ready. I would hide where you’ll never find me. In the closet, under the bed? First place the villain looks. I’m hiding where THEY would normally hide! In the rafters, in the crawl space, deep in the darkest corner of the basement. That’s where I’LL get THEM!!
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
Buy more Halloween items to spook the neighbors of course! I’m in the works of redoing my kitchen and dining area to be an all year round spookfest. The more skulls, the better. That’s a real skull I’m holding in a photo below!! Also take a look at my drink station in my gallery and that’s just the beginning of my plans for my kitchen.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
I would want to survive with Jamie Lee Curtis of course. Not only is she a great actress, she is a great person. I love how she is unapologetically herself.
