1. WHY DO YOU THINK YOU SHOULD BE THE WEEKEND OF HORRORS SPOOKSMODEL?
I am fresh, young and tragically hip. I am a cute goth girl who LOVES horror movies and what is hotter than that? Hot girl plus blood and guts? NOTHING is hotter! Not only am I NOT your typical looking horror fan, I am oozing personality! I sing in a rock band (www.myspace.com/newyearsday ) and am known for my love of horror movies. I also dress the part daily, performing covered in blood and fake scars and the crowd LOVES it! I even made a music video in the same building where they filmed torture scenes in hostel! and what did I do in my music video you may ask? WELL I TORTURED of course! I got to strap boys to giant saws and guillotines! I am definitely NOT your typical spooksmodel. My boobs dont overflow out of my corsets and I don't look like I just walked off a horror movie porn set. BUT I have an x-factor! Something different and special to bring to the convention, something you have to see in person and you will get right away! Im a horror movie fan beyond just the movies, I live it daily in my band and in my life in the way I dress and the amounts of blood and fake cuts I walk around in on a regular basis. You would think, "wow what a giant weirdo" but really what you should be thinking is "WOW What a giant HOTTIE! " Thank you!

2. WHAT IS YOUR WEAPON OF CHOICE?
For me personally, its my eyes, I could anything I want out of someone with them. BUT if I was a horror movie vixen my weapon of choice would be an axe. Chainsaw is too easy!Guns? I would laugh at someone who chose guns! Knife? Boring! An axe is messy, aggressive and its oldschool.

3. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE HORROR MOVIE AND WHY?
I have to stay true to myself and say House of 1000 Corpses. There is something so brutal about the main characters "Baby and Otis." They have no mercy or remorse. They kill because that is who they are and they ENJOY it. They aren't silent movie monsters. They are vocal about their joy in the act. They are so twisted it almost fun to watch. I loved the movie so much the first time I saw it, I told my best friend that she had to come see it with me. Right after the first scene she looked over at me and whispered "you need therapy" which I think really describes the intensity of this movie. It made me feel dirty for enjoying it, and THAT is the way I want to feel after a horror movie.
