I've been obsessed with horror, gore, and thrills ever since sneaking behind my parents to watch "Alien" at 5 years old. Halloween all year!

What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
At 8 years old I got to be Ghostface with tbe bloody knife and tattered robe and loved seeing the adults giving my parents sideways looks.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
Im Mexican, so firstly I can haul ass when necessary. Secondly, as soon as someone suggests "splitting up" Im leaving them to be eaten. Lastly, Im not about to go anywhere other than home if someone in my group was already killed.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I would pay off my barber schooling tuition, take my son to a VIP Horror Nights experience. Take my lovely wife on the vacation she deserves. Getting a tattoo of Matthew Lillard's choosing because why not?
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My Father. He's a Los Angeles City Fireman, so I know he would have the capabilities to survive and not let me do anything stupid. Also he's simply the most determined, disciplined, impressive person I've ever had the pleasure to call my Dad.
