What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

My most memorable Halloween was whe I was 6 years old and I dressedcas my Hero, Spider-Man, and that was the year my parents and neighbors turned our entire block on Cooper Avenue in Glendale, NY, into a homemade haunted maze in a neighbor's huge, spooky backyard.

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

I am going to survive this horror movie simply because I have basic common sense! Unlike typical horror characters, I do not investigate dark basements, run deeper into dangerous woods, or collect possessed dolls. No, no, no, no... While everyone else splits up, or trips on a rug, I will use my functional legs to leave the house and wait things out safely in a brightly lit diner eating waffles. My survival isn't just luck; it is the result of having a triple-digit IQ!

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

If I won the unlucky $13,000, I wouldn’t dare put it in my regular bank account—Instead, I would immediately break the curse by spending it on things that are already delightfully absurd. I’d buy a life-sized, animatronic T-Rex for my front yard to terrify the neighborhood mail carrier, rent out an entire trampoline park for a night of high-stakes dodgeball with my friends, and commission an oil painting of myself dressed as a medieval warlord to hang above my fireplace.

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

My real-life hero for a horror movie is Keanu Reeves because he is basically John Wick and Neo in one polite package. If a masked killer jumps out, Keanu will not trip on a rug. He will dodge the chainsaw in slow motion or defeat the demon with a simple pencil. Plus, he is so wildly nice that the ghost might apologize and leave. I will just stand behind him with popcorn while he saves us and asks how our day is going.
