William Paparelli

I’ve been watching horror movies since I was a kid. I love being a vampire or a witch and can disguise my voice for both.

What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

I was so convincing as a vampire at a nightclub party that management asked me to sit still on a sofa and rise slowly to greet incoming patrons. They were terrified!

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

Because as the one being chased by the killer, I would know better not to enter a supposed haunted house and get trapped it or run into a barn! So cliche. I would find out its Achille’s heel and then figure out how to destroy it.

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

I don’t need a thing, but I would give the majority of it to our local animal shelter and some to our homeless coalition. If I had any money left, I would have a little pizza party with a couple of my closest friends.

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

My good friend Tracy for picking himself up from bad situations and getting his life back on track showing that nearly nothing is impossible.
