It's no secret that I'm a big horror movie fan since I was about 6. I love horror for the suspense, terror, and fear that it instills on you, as you anticipate what's going to happen next or when the killer is going to pop out. Now here is my list of horror goodies that are my favorite and hopefully will intrigue you to watch them.

1. Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2006)

A horror movie that is in a documentary form set in a world where Jason Voorhies, Freddie Krueger, Michael Myers are real. However, this movie focuses on a man named Leslie Vernon who aspires to be a famous killer and is recorded in this documentary. This movie is definitely unique when compared to other horror movies that focus on the supernatural, Monsters,

2. Slither (2006)

One of my favorite horror comedy movies that I still enjoy to this day. This movie is about weird parasites eating and infecting people to spread them.

3. Puppet Master (1989)

A horror movie that I enjoyed watching when I was younger. This is about living puppets causing mayhem and murders when they are freed from their chest.

4. The Descent (2005)

A horror movie that takes place in a cave as friends explore and find that they aren't alone. Instead, they find peril as they try to escape when they encounter the evil creatures inside.

5. Halloween (1978)

This has to be here as I absolutely love the classic horror movies!

6. Psycho (1960)

Absolutely love the way Alfred Hitchcock directed the movie and Anthony Perkin's performance as Norman Bates is amazing.

7. Hostel (2005)

I love the Leatherface character and the family that he has. The original is the best in my opinion and the remakes are terrible as I saw them.

11. The Babadook (2014)

An indie horror movie that is pretty good and I recommend watching it. The movie focuses on the Babadook a creature from the same-titled book that threatens the son of the protagonist.

Hope you saw something that would interest you or makes you excited to check one of the movies on my list. If not, well thanks for reading!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
