What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

It was the year my father passed. Some old friends of mine from various bands formed a cover band called Scumdog Babylon which covered Gwar and Misfits. My brother and I spent days making an incredible costume for my character Hoagith Girthikus Maxxximus Erectus. It was a huge hit. We played the Mill Hill Dungeon in Trenton and then a house party in Burlington of which the cops showed up haha!

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

I grew up on Horror. I was born in the early 80’s with some of the best films and incredible practical effects of the time. With that, by this point in my life I’ve seen just about every scenario play out. Although I’d have to say, being murdered in a horror film would be as much if not more of an honor haha. I grew up with over a mile of woods, swamps and canal that certainly gave way to imagination and one hell of a landscape for horror scenarios.

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

Id invest some of it for sure. I ran my own business out of Bristol Boro Pa for many years called Noble Earth, it unexpectedly turned into a Kombucha Brewery, but with that also a major herb spice and tea shop. We hosted Krampus Festivus every year for charity, We also hosted a lot of local talent and horror movie nights. I’d love to invest in other establishments who are furthering the arts.

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

My late father. He was a huge inspiration to me even if I didn’t realize it until later in life. He could figure out just about anything. He also loved Halloween. He loved blasting Black Sabbath’s first album. We’d have a lot of fun making a huge Halloween setup every year.
