Since I was six years old and I saw a UFO I have been obsessed with supernatural, demons, and anything that makes you go bump in the night.

What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
One of my favorite Halloween memories was a girls’ slumber party where we stayed up ALL night watching horror movies, screaming at every jump scare, eating an absolutely ridiculous amount of candy, pizza and snacks, and daring each other to walk down the hallway alone. We were convinced every shadow was a ghost! By 3 a.m. we were exhausted, laughing hysterically, and still refusing to turn off the lights. It was the perfect Halloween night — scary, ridiculous, and unforgettable.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
Because I’m not the person who hears a strange noise and says, “Let’s split up.” Absolutely NOT. I’m staying with the group, keeping my shoes on, grabbing the flashlight, and questioning every suspicious person in the room. I’m also stubborn as hell — once I decide I’m surviving, I’m surviving. I might scream the entire time, but I’m making it to the end!
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
First, I’d celebrate because I actually SURVIVED! Then I’d do something unforgettable with it — take my family on an amazing trip and create memories we’ll talk about forever. I love luxury and beautiful experiences, but honestly, the best part would be knowing that a crazy Halloween adventure turned into something my family got to enjoy together.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My family. They’re the people I would want beside me when everything goes completely insane. But if I had to pick ONE person, I’d choose someone who knows me well enough to keep me calm — because let’s be honest, if we’re being chased by a horror-movie villain, I’m going to need somebody yelling, “AMANDA, RUN!”
