Dying to know what Face of Halloween is all about?
What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
Halloween has always been more than a night of costumes and candy to me. My most memorable experiences are the ones where the atmosphere itself felt very different...the darkness, the anticipation, and that moment when you realize you’re not entirely sure what’s lurking around the corner. Halloween is at its best when you can’t tell where the fun ends and the fear begins.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I wouldn’t make it to the end by being the fastest or the strongest. I’d make it because I pay attention. I watch people, study my surroundings, and think several moves ahead. I wouldn’t investigate the strange noise, split up from the group, or assume the killer follows the rules. In a horror movie, survival belongs to the person who recognizes the pattern before everyone else.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I’d turn an unlucky $13,000 into something lucky. I’d put the money toward building a better future for my daughter and me, she's always acting like quite the little witch herself 😉. Invest in something that keeps paying dividends long after Halloween is over. But I’d also set a little aside for one terrifying Halloween celebration! If the money comes with bad luck, I might as well spend some of it tempting fate.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My daughter. She’s incredibly intelligent, observant, and far more resourceful than people might expect. If I had to survive a horror movie, I wouldn’t want someone who simply follows orders, on the contrary I’d want someone who can think independently, recognize danger, and keep their head when everyone else loses theirs. We’d make a hell of a team.
