Just In Time for Halloween Week, I Give You...

Movies that caused me mental distress as a child!

Sure it was highly unlikely that a ten foot shark was going to be in an apartment bathtub, but as a child how was I to rationalize that!? I also had much less fun on my little floating duck at the beach after seeing Jaws and thinking that I was certainly doomed to be his next victim.

The Amityville Horror

Little ghostly figures staring in the windows, people getting sick from the home and voices coming from out of nowhere...yup that was enough to send me into panic mode! When a priest is afraid to come into your house I do believe you have a problem. And the WALLS bled! That my friends is not normal!

It

IT was a CLOWN! Enough said!

A Nightmare on Elm Street

Not only did Freddy Krueger have knives on his hands and try to kill innocent people as they slept for no other reason than the fact that they lived on Elm Street, his face also looked like pizza. Thanks Mr. Krueger for messing up my dreams and my favorite food!

Poltergeist

Sharks, clowns and freaky killers infesting dreams are one thing...but Poltergeist, OH MY! You see, I am one of those crazies that believe it is possible for the things that happened on Poltergeist to happen in real life, therefore it terrified me even more. It had me thinking they were baaack every time the cable went out and the television screen got fuzzy!

Now that I have scared myself all over again like it was 198o something, what are your tops for most terrifying movies?

Rose Blossom Coffee/Hot Beverage Cozy/Sleeve in Blueberry

So What Are You Going to be for Halloween?

I am so excited! I received my Mad Hatter outfit yesterday and I absolutely love it. Halloween is such a fun day and this year I have a trip lined up and fun times ahead!

What are you all going to be this year? Any plans already?

Happy Monday

Good morning everyone!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I started mine off with some overtime at work, caught up with a friend shopping and then caught up on some rest today! We have to have a balance, right?

What fun things do you all have planned for this week? I am counting down the days until my friend comes to visit Friday! It is always great to have someone that you can spend days on end just laughing with.

I hope you all have an amazing week!
