This is one of those ‘net memes that has been going on for quite a while now. Figured I’d go ahead and jump on the bandwagon.

  1. What is your favorite scary movie?

    I have such a hard time with ‘favorite’ lists — narrowing any category down to a single entry is damn near impossible. The first ones that pop into my head, though, are The Blair Witch Project, Alien, and Something Wicked This Way Comes.

  2. What is your favorite Halloween treat?

    Candy corn, definitely. Love that stuff.

  3. Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, describe your best Halloween costume.

    I haven’t in years, but I think the best I ever had was ‘The Blue Beetle’, when I was a kid. We got a blue snowsuit, and mom sewed an extra pair of arms onto it, connected to my arms with string, so that they moved with mine. I couldn’t tell you anymore where we came up with the idea for the costume, or even whether or not it had antennae, or anything else — but the costume, and especially the arms, has stuck in my brain for years afterwards, so I must have been pretty impressed by it back then.

  4. Do you enjoy going to haunted houses or other spooky events?

    Something else I haven’t done in years. I had fun going to them with friends a few times, but I think they lost their luster after a while. How many times can you walk down a dark corridor, waiting for someone to jump out and yell “BOO!” before it starts to get boring?

  5. Will you dress up for Halloween this year?

    It’s not looking like it. Again. Someday I’ll get back into it…
