REELZ Channel Scary Movie Marathon Horror Film Halloween

The Halloween season is one of my most favorite times of the year. We spend months picking out costumes and decor. We then spend days decorating our house and yard. Then we spend countless hours carving pumpkins. We take our Halloween seriously around here.

I remember watching my first horror film as a kid. I was so scared that I didn't sleep at all that night. I knew that I wasn't supposed to be watching it. In fact, my mother specifically told me not to and that it would give me nightmares. I thought that I knew better so while our babysitter was watching a scary movie, I sat on the steps outside my room and watched the entire thing along with her although she never knew that I was watching. Her screams were MUCH louder than mine. I have never forgotten watching The Exorcist and The Shining as an 11-year-old kid. These days I am just as fascinated by what goes on behind the scenes in movies as well as what is in front of the camera.

Speaking of Halloween, I should mention that my son and husband are adrenaline junkies who love the thrill that visiting a haunted house brings and they tend to go to several each year here in the Atlanta area. Haunted houses, corn mazes at night, frightful hayrides, and truly scary movies – there’s just something about being a little bit afraid that makes you feel alive. They can't get scared enough.

Starting tomorrow night, REELZ is airing their 13 Nights of REELZ Scary Programming beginning October 20, 2015 and continuing until Halloween.
