"Sometimes I feel like there's a hole inside of me, an emptiness that at times seems to burn. I think if you lifted my heart to your ear, you could probably hear the ocean. The moon tonight, there's a circle around it. Sign of trouble not far behind. I have this dream of being whole. Of not going to sleep each night, wanting. But still sometimes, when the wind is warm or the crickets sing... I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. I just want someone to love me. I want to be seen. I don't know. Maybe I had my happiness. I don't want to believe it but, there is no man, Gilly. Only that moon." Horror Character Appreciation - Sandra Bullock as Sally Owens in Practical Magic (1998) dir. Griffin Dunne
Horrorween Day 06 / 31: Phenomena (1985) dir. Dario Argento "Jennifer Connelly said in an interview that she was bitten by the chimp in this film. Apperently during one scene the chimp kept turning around and Dario Argento, not wanting to film her behind, asked Connelly to place her hand on the animal to stop her from turning. But when she attempted to do so, the chimp became enraged and bit her; and then became very hostile toward Connelly for the rest of the film."
It was a good night.
"Hugo Weaving and Bill Skarsgård were the two finalists for the role of Pennywise after Will Poulter left the project. Skarsgård eventually got the role, reportedly due to his ability to play a more fun and child-like Pennywise, in addition to a creepy Pennywise, while Weaving reportedly fell short in playfulness and could only play creepy." Horror Character Appreciation - Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise in It (2017 - 2019) dir. Andy Muschietti

"John Astin was given the choice of two names for his character and selected Gomez over Repelli. The son's name originally was to be Pubert, but it was changed to Pugsley, because Pubert sounded too sexual" Horror Character Appreciation - John Astin as Gomez Addams in The Addams Family (1964-1966)
Horrorween Day 04 / 31: City of the Dead (1960) dir. John Llewellyn Moxey "In 1692, Elizabeth Selwyn went to the stake; she was buried in the churchyard in New England, and yet three years later, three years later a new wave of blood sacrifices broke out in the village that condemned her. The daughters of the elders who had condemned her were themselves found dead with every single drop of blood drained from their bodies, and afterwards people came forward to testify that they had actually seen Elizabeth Selwyn."

Horrorween - Day 03 / 31: The House That Dripped Blood (1971) dir. Peter Duffell "That's what's wrong with the present day horror films. There's no realism. Not like the old ones, the great ones. Frankenstein, Phantom of the Opera, Dracula - the one with Bela Lugosi of course, not this new fellow."
