I have titanium in a leg, because of an Army accident. At the very end of 2025, I had a stroke. I just want for my daughter. She's my heart.
Help your favorite Halloween fanatic appear in Rue Morgue Magazine, take home $13,000, and join Kane Hodder for a ghost hunt.
Dying to know what Face of Halloween is all about?
What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
I used to take my daughter to Spooky World in Massachusetts. The fall chill, very long lines, but it did make her so happy. When I was younger, just a boy in my parents' home, I would bury myself in a fake grave, to scare kids coming for candy. In other years, I would dress up to scare them as a zombie. Fond memories.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
The three things you never do to me. First, threaten my daughter. Second, threaten my dog. And third, interrupt football season. All three are bad moves. I need to get home for all three!
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I always look at small homes by the ocean, river or lake. I don't think I'll ever find one, but I would like to be able to take me and my dog, for an occasional trip, maybe in a rented RV. Other than that, everything goes to my kid when I'm gone.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My dad. In World War II, he served a tour in the Navy and when that was finished, he served again in the Army. He eventually became an engineer and a teacher. Hell of a team member to survive with.
