I WAS BORN IN THE 60'S IN THE NEW ENGLAND AREA. I'M VERY NEW TO ALL OF THIS AND LEARNING THE ROPES AS I GO SO THIS WILL BE A WORK IN PROGRESS FOR A WHILE. HITTING MIDDLE AGE AND BEGINNING TO QUESTION LOTS OF THINGS AROUND ME. I'VE ALWAYS BEEN INTO THE DARKER SIDE OF THINGS AND I LIKE THE OLDER VICTORIAN GOTH PERIOD AND STYLES. VAMPIRES ARE A FAVE OF MINE, IT'S KIND OF A RELEASE OR ALTER EGO TO IMAGINE THE FREEDOM, ALTHOUGH THAT LIFE WOULD COME AT A DIFFERENT SET OF FEARS AND RESTRAINTS.
I LIKE ALL KINDS OF HORROR MOVIES, BUT ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT DEAL WITH THE SUPERNATURAL. I DON'T LIKE MOVIES THAT SIMPLY SHOW TONS OF BLOOD AND GUTS JUST FOR THE SHOCK FACTOR, IT HAS TO HAVE A STORY. I ALSO DON'T LIKE MOVIES THAT SHOW THE "WOLFPAK" TYPE OF RABID VAMPIRE PLAGUE MOVIES. GIVE ME VAMPIRE LESTAT OR NICK KNIGHT ANYDAY.
I LIKE ALL KINDS OF MUSIC WITH THE EXCEPTION OF RAP. BUT I ALSO LOVE THE 80'S SO THAT KIND OF RAP IS OK. THERE IS NOT MUCH CURRENT MUSIC THAT I LIKE. I THINK TODAY'S SINGERS FEEL THEY HAVE TO HIT EVERY NOTE KNOWN TO MAN IN EVERY SONG THEY DO, AND THEY MISTAKE SCREAMING FOR A POWERFUL VOICE. JUST CHECK OUT IDOL SOMETIME FOR THE LATEST SCREAMERS. NOT TO MENTION IN EVERY SONG YOU CAN HEAR THEM GASPING FOR A BREATH BEFORE THEY DELIVER A LINE. YOU WOULD NEVER HEAR FRANK SINATRA OR DEAN MARTIN DO THAT. I ALSO LIKE OLD SCHOOL METAL LIKE JUDAS PRIEST, AC/DC, AND KISS.
EVERY HALLOWEEN MY FRIENDS AND I PUT ON A BACKYARD HAUNT AT HIS HOME FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD. USUALLY GET GOOD REVIEWS AND FOLKS LIKE UP DOWN THE DRIVEWAY TO SEE WHAT WE'VE DONE THIS YEAR. I USED TO WORK IN ONE A LONG TIME AGO AND LEARNED A FEW THINGS. PROBLEM BEING IS THAT IT RUINED IT FOR ME SO THAT NOW NO MATTER HOW HIGHLY ONE MAY BE RATED IT JUST DOES NOT SCARE ME OR EVEN MAKE ME JUMP. I EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED. SAME THING WITH HORROR MOVIES, I KEEP WAITING FOR ONE THAT WILL MAKE ME JUMP, JUST DOESN'T HAPPEN.
RIGHT NOW I THINK I'M SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING NEW, DIFFERENT, AND TO SEE WHAT'S OUT THERE BEYOND WHAT I'VE ONLY KNOWN IN MY SHELTERED WORLD. THE REAL WORLD HAS A WAY OF BECOMING MUNDANE. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MYTHOLOGY OF VAMPIRES AND DEMONS WHICH IS WHY I JOINED A COUPLE OF GROUPS TO THAT EFFECT.
I'VE TAKE CLASSES IN WITCHCRAFT BUT HAVEN'T PRACTICED IN MANY YEARS ALTHOUGH STILL FASCINATED WITH IT. I THINK THERE IS SO MUCH MORE OUT THERE THAN WE ALLOW OUR MINDS TO UNDERSTAND. SALEM IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE TOWNS ANYWHERE.
I CAN HAVE A BIT OF A WILD SIDE, MY LOVELY WIFE OF 17 YEARS KEEPS ME GROUNDED AND I KEEP IT HIDDEN WELL. ALTHOUGH I'M GOTHIC IN MY HEART I DON'T ALWAYS WEAR THE BLACK AND GOTHIC STYLES, ESPECIALLY NEED TO BLEND IN THE CORPORATE WORLD.
I LOVE CANDLES AND ON ANY GIVEN CHILLY NIGHT I'LL HAVE 20 OR 30 GOING AT A TIME IN SOME OF THE MEDIEVAL AND GOTHIC HOLDERS I'VE ACQUIRED OVER THE YEARS.
I ALSO LOVE TO DECORATE BUT ONLY FOR FALL AND WINTER. THAT SUITS MY STYLE AND I GET SO MANY IDEAS JUST WALKING THRU A CRAFT STORE. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THE BRIGHT HAPPY TIMES OF YEAR LIKE EASTER, SPRING, AND SUMMER, I COULDN'T BE BOTHERED. I GO INTO HIDING AND START PLANNING FOR THE NEXT FALL.
MY DREAM JOB WOULD BE TO OWN MY OWN YEAR ROUND HAUNTED HOUSE OR TO CONSULT ON OTHERS. I THINK I HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO SCARE THE MOST HARDENED HAUNT FANATIC OUT THERE. MY MOTTO IS "SCARE THE ONES YOU CAN, ENTERTAIN THE ONES YOU CAN'T BUT ALWAYS LEAVE THEM WITH SOMETHING THEY CAN TELL THEIR FRIENDS".
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU ADD ME AS A FRIEND SO I CAN RETURN THE KINDNESS.
