A list of Halloween themed questions &#8211; which seem appropriate given that its mid-October. Right? Whee!<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Let&#8217;s dig in and see what *BOO!* I have in-store.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What&#8217;s your favourite scary movie or story?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; That&#8217;s impossible. I love scary movies and stories. Right now, I&#8217;m totally into &#8220;The Walking Dead&#8221; (like most of America) and so that&#8217;s probably my choice for the moment.<\/p>\n<li>Favourite horror or Halloween-themed song?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The &#8220;Halloween&#8221; theme song gives me chills to this day.<\/p>\n<li>What are some things you&#8217;re most afraid of?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Failure. Death. Snakes. My teeth falling out. Mushrooms growing out of my flesh.<\/p>\n<li>Does anything creep you out but in a good way?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Of course &#8211; that&#8217;s why I dig horror movies!<\/p>\n<li>Name something you wouldn&#8217;t want to run into down a dark alley or in an abandoned building.<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Illithids. Beholders. My ex-fiance.<\/p>\n<li>Favourite horror monster or villain?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Classic Dracula\/Vampire<\/p>\n<li>Do you believe in ghosts?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I want to say no, but then again &#8211; I am fairly sure I used to hear my Great-Grandmother rocking upstairs in her chair when I lived in the Thorp Farmhouse (when she was long dead and the chair was long gone).<\/p>\n<li>The creepiest thing that&#8217;s ever happened while you were alone?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; See previous question. Also, the time I thought (as a small &#8211; say, 8 years old &#8211; child) I saw a serial murderer\/arsonist as my sister and our friend, Shelly, and I walked through the recently burned down wildlands behind our house. We FUH-REAKED the eff out &#8211; totally mental psych-out.<\/p>\n<li>What&#8217;s the best Halloween costume you&#8217;ve ever seen or worn?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &#8230;uh, witch? Repeatedly as a child. Or um&#8230; a zombie one year.<\/p>\n<li>Best Halloween experience?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Most years, as a kid, dressed up and getting candy.<\/p>\n<li>Ever been to a haunted house?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Yes! They&#8217;re fun and scary and horrible and awesome! I want to go to one this year, but we probably can&#8217;t afford it.<\/p>\n<li>What about a cornfield maze?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Yes, but not a scary one. <\/p>\n<li>If you were dared to spend the night in a &#8220;haunted house&#8221;, would you do it?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Uhhh, is there a million bucks cash in it for me? Like in &#8220;House on Haunted Hill&#8221;?<\/p>\n<li>Have any specific Halloween traditions?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; We used to carve pumpkins every year. Make roasted pumpkin seeds. Pass out candy. Dress-up. Mark and I don&#8217;t do any of that. We always talk about &#8220;doing it right this year&#8221; but we never quite manage it. It&#8217;ll be different once we have kids.<\/p>\n<li>Are you superstitious?<\/li>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; A little more than I&#8217;d like to be.
