Hi all! This is Wraith. I am 33 years old, married, grew up in Western Ky. and after getting married moved across the river to southern Indiana. Some of my earliest memories are of going to my grandparents house on Halloween and being scared stiff! My grandmother was the type who decorated for EVERY holiday. SHe had all the old cardboard type pumpkins and scarecrows that you hung up and the black cats that felt like they had velvet on them and scariest of all the big skeleton she hung in her front door! She also had a lot of Empire Plastics halloween decorations which I am lucky enough to own now. My grandad, who most of my personality and such came from, was always trying to scare us kids whether it was halloween or not. He would come in from farming in the fields all day and show us where he had cut or scratched himself while working and tell us that before he could make it home to supper he had to fight off or wrestle Bigfoot and barely made it out alive! Lol! He was so cool. When we would spend the night he would disappear and creep up outside the windows and scratch on them or make ghost noises. You would think that would traumitize someone, but not me. THats why I am the way I am I truly believe. He would even go as far as coming over to my house when I was married to my first wife and open the door to the old coal chute room when no one was home because my ex-wife kept it shut and latched because she was scared of it! He was so great! Anyway I took my cue from him and ran with it. I love nothing more than to scare the living daylights out of someone and I am in a halloween state of mind all year round. I coolect anything halloween that interests me and one of those that are most expensive are the Dept. 56 halloween collection. Being a guy I don't go for the cutsey stuff but the more spooky. Also Iam a huge movie buff, especially horror of course but I love all movies and music for that matter. Anyway before I write something that has to be published I will say that I am glad to be a part of this board and wish that I had found it sooner!:xbones:
