What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
In 6th grade, I twisted my ankle in gym class on Halloween and it swelled up to the size of a plum. I refused to miss out, so I still went trick-or-treating with my best friend, who had to push me around the neighborhood in a little red wagon like some injured Halloween gremlin. We got a ridiculous amount of candy and ended the night watching Coraline. Honestly, despite the injury and the embarrassment, it ended up being the best Halloween ever!
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I’d make it to the end because I was never running, I was orchestrating. Strong enough to survive, smart enough to manipulate, and quiet enough to be overlooked… until it was too late. In the final scene, I don’t scream, I smile.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I’d use the unlucky $13,000 to help pay for my college education as I pursue my passion for criminal psychology, with the goal of becoming a criminal profiler one day. I’d also use part of it to help my mom with her debt, she means the world to me, and being able to give back, even a little, would mean everything.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My real-life hero is my best friend M. She’s one of the cleverest people I know, and since she’s studying criminal justice, she actually knows her stuff. I’d want her by my side in a horror movie because she’d keep us one step ahead of danger, and honestly, her brainpower would be our best weapon. She’s always 3 steps ahead of everyone else.
