What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
One Halloween experience that has always stuck with me is learning about the Perron family, who moved into an old farmhouse in Rhode Island and claimed they began experiencing unexplained things almost immediately. it was reportedly their real life. Their experiences eventually inspired The Conjuring. The idea that a normal Halloween night could turn into a story people would still be talking about decades later is what makes it so memorable to me.
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 I’m paranoid enough to question absolutely everything. If I hear a strange noise upstairs, I’m not going upstairs. If the lights start flickering, I’m grabbing my keys&leaving. If my friend says, “Let’s split up,” congrats, you’re on your own. I’d trust my instincts, stay with the group, keep an exit plan ready,& actually listen when the movie starts dropping obvious warning signs. I might be scared, but fear is exactly what would keep me alert.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
If I won $13,000, I wouldn’t just spend it—I’d turn it into something that could change the way I create. Horror and SFX makeup, and winning would give me the chance to take that passion seriously. But the best part is that I wouldn’t be creating alone. I have my own little ghoul of a daughter who loves horror and Halloween just as much as I do. I’d use part of the money to create magical, spooky experiences for her and make memories that go far beyond one Halloween.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My real life hero would have to be my dad. He’s the reason I fell in love with horror. Before he passed, he had over 2,000 horror documentaries, movies, and decorations . our house was basically Halloween year round. He was always ten steps ahead, so I know he’d have a plan before the killer even made an appearance. But more than surviving, I’d choose him because getting one more adventure with my dad would mean everything to me. He gave me my love for horror, and I’d carry that with me forever.
