Ooh Shut Up!!! Scary Movies are Scary!

Dear Horror Movie Lovers,
If I say it's scary, my racing heart & I say It Is Scary.
Alright,
My Frightened A-Word

I don't watch horror movies. The last movie I watched that I consider horror was Skeleton Key. I prayed through it with all the lights on at 9 am. I will leave a room or hum during a horror movie commercial. I know it's not real, but I still get scared. I also am not a fan of my heart racing while I am sitting & watching a movie. That's a sedentary activity, I need my heart in a resting state.

I knew I had a problem after seeing the movie, Tales From the Hood.  I saw it in theatres when I was in high school.
I had a serious crush on Joe Torrey then. That movie was not scary to watch at all. But hours later, home alone with my brother, G, I got scared. Around 11 pm, I was washing dishes while my grandparents & mom picked my sister up from work. The pilot on the water heater reset itself and all I could think about was Clarence Williams III turning into the devil & taking Joe Torry & the other two to hell. I left those dishes, rolled G into the lit living room, and sat in there until our family got back. Yeah, I knew I had a problem at that point.

There are other instances through my life that say horror & I are Not friends
  • For 6 months, I was scared to eat ice cream & yogurt after seeing "The Stuff" as a little girl. Threw a bowl of Blue Bell on the floor and my grandmother took a switch to my butt. *hangs head in shame* Yes, once I disrespected Blue Bell. Texas, Forgive Me!!!
  • I hid my Learn How to Dress clown because of the movie, "Poltergeist".
    I smashed him deep down in the toy box. A lost library book brought him back to the top. Now, I wonder was that why I wore velcro sneakers until the 3rd grade.
  • Freddy Krueger will Forever be the scariest horror movie villain. Only a psycho maniac would mess with a person's sleep. Like seriously, I can avoid the woods. I can avoid clowns. I can avoid colleges. I won't buy talking dolls. But my sleep, My Sleep??? That's Evil!!!

Scary Movies Are Scary!!!

But anyway, enjoy Halloween in a safe & fun way. Black, Brown, Red, & Yellow face is still RACIST.
I'm watching "The Worst Witch" on Halloween. Let me know if you want to join me.  It's Not Scary. Oh, can anyone bring me a couple of packs of SweeTarts & a Caramel Apple Laffy Taffy or two? My taste buds would appreciate it.
