Halloween has inspired me since I was a kid. From makeup and transformation to horror and creating art. It’s where I feel most creative.
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?
My favorite Halloween experience has always been getting ready for Halloween as a kid. My mom would transform me with makeup into a witch, a clown, a cat or whatever I wanted to be. My grandma would make some of my costumes. I loved feeling like I could become anything for a night. Between the makeup, costumes and Halloween movies, it’s a feeling that’s so nostalgic for me and still inspires my creativity today.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I’m way too paranoid to be the first one to die 😂. I’m not investigating weird noises, splitting up from the group, or going into the creepy basement. I’ve watched enough horror movies to know better. I’d be questioning everything and trusting my gut the second something felt off. I’ve seen enough horror movies to know exactly what not to do.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I’d definitely invest some of it back into my art and makeup, especially learning more SFX and being able to create bigger projects. I’d also put some toward traveling and experiencing places I’ve always wanted to see. I’ll probably visit some spooky places along the way!
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My fiancé, Jonatan, 100%. I’ve been with him long enough to know there’s no one I’d rather have by my side. He’s strong, stays calm under pressure, and I know he’d have my back no matter what. We already make a pretty good team in real life, so I’d like to think we could handle a horror movie together too. 😂
