Dark romance, gothic lore, cosplaying cryptids—Halloween isn’t a holiday, it’s my main stage. I write the nightmare; I am the magic.
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?
Going to "Camp Blood" in Columbia, TN with my dad and brother as a teenager—a Crystal Lake setup where I got separated, tumbled into blackberry brambles, and had a haunt actor who looked like Marilyn Manson lean in with a plastic skull asking, "Would you like to touch my skull?" I scrambled out of those bushes faster than lightning! It was terrifying, hilarious, and unforgettable all at once.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
Because nothing in this world can stop me. As a mother of children with DMD, I’ve faced the hardest battles life can hand you. I know how to adapt, how to fight, and how to survive against impossible odds. A masked killer has nothing on a dedicated mama bear who refuses to go down without a fight. I am the ultimate Final Girl!
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I’d turn "unlucky" 13 into the luckiest number by taking my kids on an amazing, memory-making adventure, investing back into my creative projects, and upgrading my setup to keep chasing my dreams full steam ahead!
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
Absolutely Dave the Viking! With a real-life Viking warrior by my side, we’d turn any slasher flick into an epic saga. Between my unyielding Final Girl survival instincts and his sheer powerhouse presence, any monster chasing us wouldn't stand a single chance. Valhalla can wait—we've got places to be!
