In a remake of a Friday the 13th  sequel – you play Jason – what would be your method of execution for all your victims?

I have a cruel and sadistic way when it comes to my own writing, so I'd have to be very inventive. I'd probably find a way of making the victims kill themselves. Or even better, I'd make them kill each other.

In a remake of Halloween, you are one of the victims – describe the scene and your grisly death?

I'd be the one who gets away, only to be hit by a bus or a truck, that would finish me off.

In a remake of the 1974 movie Young Frankenstein – which character would you play and why?

This is probably going to make me look bad, but I've actually never seen it, this this one we will move quickly on from. *Bows head in shame!* Is it any good by the way? I'm going to have to watch now, aren't I?

In the Walking Dead, you and another character have survived the zombies, so far. You're on the move, but the individual with you is a wimpy scaredy cat, but oh so hot, still he/she keeps drawing attention to you and your position and it's almost certain he/she will get you killed. What do you do - leave them for the zombies and save yourself? Or take pity on them, because their hotness makes up for their stupidity, and teach them not to be a wimp? Or do you have another solution.

Hmm, well then, a catch 22! I'm sure everyone has there uses somewhere, I'd have to continue to help out, keep the scaredy cat safe, in a hope that at some point the cat turns into a lion. And the fact that she's good on the eye would be a bonus.

You're headed to a Masquerade party as your favorite horror character and at midnight, you are transformed into your character until sunrise. Who is this character and how many victims would you claim by sunrise?

Without doubt I'd have to attend as Angel, the brooding Vampire with a soul, first seen in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In my case when the clock struck 12, it would be a case of how many victims could I save. Unless in a twist of fate, Midnight had its way and released Angelus, then everyone should think about attending another party, because everyone would probably be drained dry.

Share with us your scariest ghost story – or nightmare – or tell us what scares you the most and why?

Spiders! I'm petrified of spiders, big or small it's no matter. They freak me the hell out!

I've gone all itchy now, so we'll move on quickly again.

Share with us your favorite Halloween experience, costume, and candy.

A few friends and I, when I was much younger, used to love Halloween, we'd scare the heck out of people, then we'd share out the goodies we'd gotten from the people who give us the treats. Then we'd scare ourselves silly, telling spooky stories, ending up with me sleeping with the light on with my dog at the foot of the bed.

Tina Harding's life is about to change again!

She carries within her veins an ancient bloodline, a lost link to the lost pure vampire nobles.

One demonic vampire has escaped from hell and has started to hunt for the Kingdom of Blood. His goal is to take his seat as the ruler of the damned, to become a god among mortals. 

Nathaniel, a fallen angel, that was both banished from heaven and exiled from hell, now stranded in our mortal realm. 

Has to make a choice, he has to choose a side. 

He can either help humanity or damn them.

About me, well, what can I say?

Ah! Ok I got something now, here we go...

Well, I myself just like some of my characters seems to come alive when the sun goes down. But I don't bite.

I grew up in Wigan England, those that look can still find me there.

Other than writing I’m a Pro Wrestler & trainer, Life Coach, read the Tarot, I also teach the art of Tarot, I've been on TV a few times, a Movie too, acting a little here and there.

I love reading, I can be very diverse at times too. Thrillers, horror, historical, things that make me laugh, things that can pull on my heart strings, the list goes on...

I really only started writing fully back in 2007, after I read a book, a supernatural one. I won't say the title but I loved the idea, the theme and the plot, but the ending left me wanting.

So I started to write my own style of a paranormal stories, just a few short stories and pages here and there, until I started writing Guardian of the Gate Bloodline that is, and that's when I could not stop.

Bloodline turned into my first book. My passion, that passion has infected me like a bite from a vampire would, but blood is not what I crave, my craving is a hunger for the written word.

As long as I can keep feeding that passion, I will keep writing, with the hope that you, keep reading...

Once again I’d like to thank you for taking the time to come and have a look around my online home.

AN ASYLUM OF HORROR!

Meet DEVLIN GIROUX 

 horror author and my latest victim
as he introduces his latest work

Asylum Echoes

and answers the questions in the

Bwahahaha Halloween Interview!

You're the last person to die in your favorite horror movie, what's the name of the movie and how do you die?

        Circus Comes to Town.

        It’s almost over. Everything has fallen into place so very well. But what’s this? No! How did they survive? It can’t end this way. Smile now, but I’ll be back. And you won’t be here to stop me!

        Yes, I’m the diabolical ringmaster of a demented circus in my favorite movie. What? You thought I would be the good guy? Where did it say I had to be the good guy?

In a remake of one of the Friday the 13^th movies – you play Jason – what would be your method of execution for all your victims?

        I always enjoyed it when Jason got creative with his choice of weapon. I’d have to do the same and take advantage of whatever was around. Of course, nothing goes better with that iconic hockey mask than a pitted machete.

In a remake of Halloween, you are one of the victims – describe the scene and your grisly death.

        Summer is nearing its end, the night cold, leaves making a stealthy escape impossible. Maybe I can buy my friends a few precious moments to get away…put some distance between them and the thing stalking us. I fall back from the rest, out of their sight so as not to cause them to stop out of misplaced concern. I hear the maniac’s stride, constant and strong. Tightening my grip on the machete, I turn to face the masked fiend. It doesn’t take long, but as my weapon breaks in the thing’s grip, I know my friends at least have a chance now.

In a remake of the 1974 movie Young Frankenstein – which character would you play and why.

Would have to be Frankenstein. I’m a sucker for physical comedy.

In the Walking Dead, you and another character have survived the zombies, so far. You're on the move, but the individual with you is a wimpy scaredy cat, but oh so hot, still they keep drawing attention to you and your position and it's almost certain they will get you killed. What do you do - leave them for the zombies and save yourself? Or take pity on them, because their hotness makes up for their stupidity, and teach them not to be a wimp? Or do you have another solution.

        If there are rotting bags of unending hunger running around giving humanity the big nom in a world without working toilets, a person’s hotness is the least of my concerns. Either the person in question gets it right in a hurry or joins the shambling horde without even a proper send-off. Bullets aren’t easy to come by, you know.

You're headed to a Masquerade party as your favorite horror character and at midnight, you are transformed into your character until sunrise. Who is this character and how many victims would you claim by sunrise?

        Pennywise. No question. A clown that becomes some spider-thing that drives people insane…all the good stuff in one coulrophobia-inducing package. How many victims, you ask? As many as I can make float down here.

Share with us your scariest ghost story – or nightmare – or tell us what scares you the most and why.

        This may sound strange coming from a horror writer, but it’s my fellow humans who scare me the most. The things they’re willing to do to one another makes anything I create shrink in terror. I write horror as an escape from the very real atrocities of humanity.

Share with us your favorite Halloween experience, costume, and candy.

        I don’t write about them much, but my favorite costume was a werewolf. I walked around town in a full-body, black and silver costume, no one knowing it was me. I left my candy behind at some point long forgotten and just got into character. No, I didn’t attack anyone, but slipping into that mindset was exhilarating for a night. To me, that’s just one of the wonderful things about Halloween: Being other.

A GRIZZLY HORROR

I am truly honored that Gary Pennick caretaker of

Penny the Jack Russell terrier
and modest internet superstar

has agreed to give us his answers to the

Bwahahaha Halloween Interview!

Please enjoy Gary's horror stories and then jump on over

to Denise Covey's Blog  L'Aussie Writer

she's hosting me today. The subject:

Why I chose An Alaskan Setting 
for my murder trilogy.
Oh, and don't forget the
W...E...P Halloween Haunting 
post due on 
October 30th! 
Have you signed up?

AND NOW TO GARY'S ANSWERS!

You're the last person to die in your favorite horror movie, what's the name of the movie and how do you die?

I wish I'd been the first person to die in my favourite horror movie, "Caligula", which was a horror, as such. Seeing the guy's dangly bits being fed to a bulldog was enough for me. It turns out that out I wasn't actually in my favourite horror movie and was stuck in the movie "Groundhog Day." I finally die, I think I finally die when, "Punxsutawney Phil", legendary groundhog, decides to, "Gobbler's Knob" me and I die a painful death. 

In a remake of one of the Friday the 13th movies – you play the killer or Jason what would be your method of execution for all your victims?

Ah yes, I remember the first twelve movies about Friday. My method of execution for all my victims would have to be tying them down, prying open their eyes and force them to watch reruns of "Glee Club." They would die a horrible death as their brains would explode with all the gosh darn giggly fun being forced upon them.  

In a remake of Halloween, you are one of the victims – describe the scene and your grizzly / grisly death.

A grizzly death!  I'm knocked over by a very heavy dude wearing a grizzly bear costume.  He is stumbling home from a Halloween party.  After knocking me over, he crushes me to death.  It doesn't bear thinking about.

In a remake of the 1974 movie Young Frankenstein – which character would you play and why.

I would play the part of Frau Blücher because I always wanted to be a forbidding housekeeper.  In fact, uttering such a name would cause horses to rear up and neigh madly in fright.  Don't nag the nag, me thinks.  

In the Walking Dead, you and another character have survived the zombies, so far. You're on the move, but the individual with you is a wimpy scaredy cat, but oh so hot, still they keep drawing attention to you and your position and it's almost certain they will get you killed. What do you do - leave them for the zombies and save yourself? Or take pity on them, because their hotness makes up for their stupidity, and teach them not to be a wimp? Or do you have another solution.

I'm going to have the best of both worlds.  I shall give her a long, lingering kiss which shall shut her up. Then, just when I've got the zombies moving past us, I shall throw her to them and get the hell out of there.  This reply was typed in front of a dead studio audience......

You're headed to a Masquerade party as your favorite horror character and at midnight, you are transformed into your character until sunrise. Who is this character and how many victims would you claim by sunrise?

At the stroke of midnight, I turn into my all time favourite horror character.  Until sunrise, I become David Cameron, Prime Minister of Britain. During my delusional state, I claim several thousand vulnerable people as my victims. I take all their money and give it to my rich banking friends. 

Share with us your scariest ghost story – or nightmare – or tell us what scares you the most and why.

I have a fear of success.  My comfort zone is actually an uncomfortable comfort zone.  

Share with us your favorite Halloween experience, costume, and candy.

My favourite Halloween experience was the time I owned a house in Langley, British Columbia.  It was great fun handing out candy to all those kids. Now that I live in England, no kids come to my door trick or treating.  In a way, that's good because I can eat all the candy that the kids who never came to my door could of had.  I went to a party dressed as Bob McKenzie and my then wife, dressed as Doug McKenzie.  You know of Bob and Doug? Two famous Canadians, eh.  

My favourite candy was those toffees wrapped in Halloween themed wrappers.

Greetings, I've been honoured to have my blog "klahanie" featured on the B.B.C.'s radio station "Radio 5 Live." On a show titled: "Pods and Blogs", I tried to highlight in my interview, that it's time to eliminate the unfair stigma that's still attached to mental health issues. I firmly believe that the media can help redress the balance. How about sensationalizing the positive recovery stories rather than the negative stereotypes that people with mental health issues have to endure? I'm a man challenging his 'inner critic.' I will not 'surrender' to my symptoms. I give myself permission to be positive. I try to live my life with positive anticipation. I refuse to let negative speculation overwhelm me. We all have the right to peace and contentment. I want to give others positive affirmations. I'm not daunted by my loneliness. For in my solitude, I have discovered a determined resilience. I care passionately for people who have been undermined in an unjust world. I challenge the stigma that still surrounds mental health issues.

Right then, my blog, or should I say, Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar's blog can be found here
