What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

I was 10 when I entered my first backyard haunted house, and it changed everything! While everyone else was screaming, I was mesmerized by the creativity, atmosphere, and terrifying details. I wasn't scared—I was HOOKED! That night sparked a lifelong passion for Halloween. Decades later, I'm still exploring haunted attractions, admiring every detail, and chatting with the monsters! Some people run from their fears. I walk straight toward them, fascinated by what I'll discover!

Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.

I'm not the screaming girl running from danger. I'm the one who's first to investigate! I'm smart, strategic, adventurous, and stay calm under pressure. My black belt in Krav Maga means I know how to defend myself and disarm an attacker. I love the unknown, know every horror movie mistake, and have the confidence to face whatever's lurking in the shadows. I'm determined to make it to the final scene. Plot twist: I'm not afraid of the killer. The killer should be afraid of ME!

What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?

Winning $13,000 would be a dream come true! First, I'd slay some bills, give my family a little financial breathing room, and help the people I love. Then I'd treat my husband and myself to a much-needed vacation filled with adventure and unforgettable memories! Life has thrown us a few unexpected plot twists, but we've always faced them together with humor and determination. This prize would give us the opportunity to turn the page and begin an exciting new chapter.

Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?

My son, Josh, without a doubt! He's the only person who loves Halloween more than I do! A member of the nonprofit LA Ghostbusters, he attends horror conventions throughout Southern California and has met legends like Kane Hodder, Robert Englund, Cassandra Peterson, and John Kassir (the Crypt Keeper)! After losing his home in the Southern California wildfires a couple of years ago, he showed incredible strength and resilience. He's my real-life hero, and together we'd make one KILLER team!
