I have ALWAYS loved horror movies and enjoy watching any new horror movie. I believe I can bring a unique blend of shyness & affection

What draws you to the darkness?
The mystery it holds, something is intriguing about the unknown, the way it challenges you to face your fears and find strength within yourself. In the darkness, there's a quietness, a solitude that mirrors my shyness, but also a place where I can explore the depths of emotion & connection. There's a sliver of light if you look hard enough even in the darkest places.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
My shyness and love for animals have taught me to be observant & cautious, key survival traits in any horror scenario. I know how to stay calm under pressure, and my empathy would help me make smart decisions that keep me & others safe. I'm not one to charge into danger recklessly; I'd be the one who listens to their instincts and knows when to hide & when to run.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
I'd turn that bad luck into something good. Maybe treat myself to a few spooky adventures, exploring haunted locations, etc. And of course set aside some of it to build a future where I can pursue what I love, caring for animals or turning my unique blend of shyness into something meaningful.
