During her childhood, BB sat behind the couch in her grandparents’ farm house in order to watch old horror movies without her grandma ever being aware. BB says the scene she remembered the most came from the Fly (1958) when the fly (with the scientist’s head and arm) is caught in a web screaming for help as a giant brown spider advances on it.
Just when the spider almost eats the fly, one of the men watching the ordeal decided to throw a rock at it, thus killing both the spider and the fly. While she can handle blood and gore from movies such as Wrong Turn and Saw, this movie stuck with her the most due to the close up of the spider. She hates spiders.
In Elementary School, she would spend her time reading R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps series, Deep and Dark and Dangerous by Mary Downing Hahn, and Haunted Ohio by Chris Woodyard. Her favorite Goosebumps book happened to be Phantom of the Auditorium since she loved the plot twist at the end of the book.
BB graduated from a small private Christian college in May 2020 with a Bachelor’s degree for English and Creative Writing. She currently is working as a freelance writer and part-time at a Pharmacy. Her passion in life is collecting books–mainly Stephen King and Thomas Harris. Though, she is not against reading other writers or learning about new authors.
