Not gonna lie. My exposure to scary during my childhood was on lockdown so when I was able to get into scary. I dove in headfirst. I read a plethora of Stephen King novels and murder mysteries during the early 90’s and didn’t look back. I watched the vivid and gory movies in theaters with other likeminded friends. While testing myself to see if I could handle watching the exorcist by myself at night. Maybe it was the SK novels in high school that desensitized things for me but as I got older and taking care of littles I quickly became my mother; sheltering them from anything that might be too scary or traumatic for them. As they get older I will let them discover how much scary they want to endure with me by their side, of course.

In terms of scary movies… No ma’am. I like my dreams how they are, thank you.
