Don’t Watch This

10.31.13

Remember when I said people like me need to take it slow with horror movies?

I should learn to follow my own rules.

My friend Clay had to escort me to the bathroom and prove to me there was no demon lady behind the shower curtain after watching The Conjuring last night. From now on, I’m sticking to Hocus Pocus.

Hope your Halloween is just as scary—or not—as you want it to be!

  1. Lol! I had the same problem after seeing Poltergeist…in the middle of the afternoon. Carl had to check under the bed for that damned clown before I could go to bed that night. And I still couldn’t sleep that night.

  2. Haha. O man. I can’t believe The Conjuring did this to you while The Exorcist was in your “not so scary” pile. Forget a one person escort..I needed all my friends to escort me to bathroom after watching that one….that’s actually why girls go to the bathroom in groups ..we’re protecting each other from the toilet jumping demons who want to possess our souls!

  3. Ha ha! That is what happens to me when I watch scary movies! The thing is…I LOVE scary movies. But there are two types of scary movies that exist for me. The cheesy-scary ones that I can watch by myself and not get scared (think Jason, Halloween, Freddy Krueger) and then there are the scary-scary ones that I have to watch with someone else. These are the ones that make me afraid of the dark and sleep with all the covers on even if its like 100 degrees. Examples would be The Conjuring, The Exorcist, 28 Days later.
