Day 15

 Coming in on rounding the halfway mark.


Let's kick this off!

Q&A
Roasted Marshmallows or Roasted Chestnuts

    I never really developed a taste for chestnuts in any other form other than straight outta the shell. So it's always roasted marshmallows for me. Especially when squished into smores.

Movie Night Title

The Gate


    This dang movie freaked me out so bad as a kid. Of course, at the time, my uncle was removing a tree from his yard. That really did not help matters much at all. It took me almost 20 years to go back and rewatch it. Now it's pretty much a tradition to watch during the month.

    It's older movies like this that will give me ideas into what to build for next season. As it is, I am already getting a lot of plans going. But this year is still going to be out of this world.

  We are under a week Almost there Q&A Carve Pumpkins or Make Pumpkin Pie     This is actually an easy question for me. I am not a big fan of pumpkin flavor so when I bake, it's usually cookies and cupcakes. However, I love carving pumpkins every year. The number that I will carve will depend on how I feel that particular year and how much other things I have to do. I try to carve as close to Halloween as I can, just to preserve the freshness of the pumpkins. I don't want them to wilt too much before the big night. This year I am carving two pumpkins. Mainly because I have been doing so much other work and building props. I have also not even begun to look for ideas as to what I will carving.  Movie Night Title Dreamcatcher      This pick is pretty much for the fact that I love Stephen King. I had started reading the book but got distracted with life and work. When I heard they were optioning the novel for the big screen, I had to finish it. So I binged the rest of the book

  Officially two whole weeks done! Just a tad over two weeks to go. Q&A Slasher or Psychological     There are numerous genres within the horror category but it usually comes down to these topics. They both have their perks. But between them, I usually lean towards the psychological horror. Don't get me wrong, I do love the iconic slasher movies. However, I like not being able to predict what happens. Having a twist ending or red herrings throughout the films draws me into the story a lot more. Being a writer, and a very analytical mind, I usually end up working out the mystery fairly well. So for those that can keep me guessing, they tend to rank higher for me. Movie Night Title Waxwork II: Lost in Time          This is another guilty pleasure. Apparently, I have a theme of Bruce Campbell and severed hands. It still remains one of my favorite movies just because it's not at all serious in nature, it has a superb cast, and there's an Edgar Allen Poe reference. So that&#

  Omg check it out One week left!!! Q&A Picking Apples or Hay Ride     When it comes to fall activities, some things are easier to do depending on where you live. I've always preferred hay rides to apple picking. Mostly because apple picking always seemed like a chore. Haunted hay rides were the best. It was the element of not being able to stop and focus on something long enough to determine what or how something was. They were a deciding factor in what I wanted to do when I grew up. Movie Night Title Pan's Labyrinth     Yet again, we have a new one. I have actually never seen this. But I have been told (numerous times) that I absolutely need to see it. So I guess this one was picked for me.
