Halloween has always been a necessity for me. It’s a holiday where I can be whoever I want to be without being afraid. I can be myself again

Dying to know what Face of Halloween is all about?
What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
My most memorable moment was when I was 16. I went to a haunted trail with my friends and I had the best time of my life. If I could go back and do it again, I would.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I’m very organized about how I go about life. I usually have a straight forward plan, how to do things right, etc. Depending on the horror movie, I would figure out why the antagonist wants me dead or hurt, find a solution, and go about my life. Whether that’s killing the antagonist or moving far enough away from them.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I would pay my college tuition. I would also help my mom find an apartment to stay in. I have received 47,000 in scholarships, but the extra money would help me pay the rest of it off smoothly. My mom is my hero. She raised me the best she could have and I want to help her and my sister as much as I can.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My mom is my hero. She raised me in a household where love was never really present, after my parents divorced, my life felt ruined. My mom never gave up on me though. She made sure I was okay, that I received help. She could get me through any horror movie out there. She got me through the horrors of my life, getting me through a horror movie would be so easy for her. I love my mom. She is my absolute hero. And I’d do anything to make her happy.
