Halloween has always been important to me and my spirituality. It's the only time I've ever felt like myself and like I belong with a tribe.
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 most memorable experience was working at a haunted house where me and two of my co-workers managed to accidentally coordinate perfectly to scare a group of people one right after the other. They dropped the first two times and then just ran away when I finished them off.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I'd survive because I'm a fighter, I have already proven myself in crisis situations because of my job, I'm a quick thinker/learner, and I worked five years in a haunted house so I know how to put myself in the mind of the monster.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I would take my dad to the Smokey mountains and invest in more Special Effects training for myself to make more horror movies with practical effects.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
My dad, he and I are the perfect tag team. We understand each other and are different in some ways that would make us dominate whatever movie we were in. He inspires me every day and supports me even though he isn't a fan of horror movies or Halloween himself.
