A Warped Witch I Be

In response to "Horror Movies"

I loved Vincent Price, just rented the Pit and the Pendulum to watch again. I heard it read at a Poe event, I came home and read it again myself then watched. It brought back some cool memories of watching Vincent Price with my friends.

I remember The Birds so well, which is a miracle, considering my memory of late. But that movie didn't scare me. Maybe. Vincent Price did more. It might have been the tone of his voice and his special kind of articulation.

Nope, don't think I would do that. I have been to Niagara Falls and that water is so bloody strong and the drop!! No thank you!!! Beautiful to look at though.

I am a bit the same. Those movies you mentioned such as Saw and Chainsaw Massacre I couldn't watch those. However I love things like Monster series on Netflix and just watched The Ed Gein Story and loved it. Which is strange to say but I think for me the real life horror is more psychology type thing. Why are these people the way they are?

I flip flop back between do I believe people are born evil or is it their environment etc.

In Ed's case I think that his mother and father had mental issues which can be hereditary, so most likely he had mental issues when he was born and then his upbringing with parents, especially his mother manifested those mental issues. It maybe could have been different had his issues been picked up when he was younger and helped. He eventually was diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Anyway, probably didn't want to read all that ha ha ha.

I can't imagine why anyone would do that. I've never understood the point of daredevil stuff. Thanks for sharing!

In response to "Chaos "

Our world is so dependent on the internet and electricity, it would be utter chaos and dangerous. I can't imagine hos much crime would take place in a world like that.

Some scenario's make it seem impossible to live. Everyone would learn to deal as they found abilities to cope.

Risky business

PROMPT November 16th

Write about the biggest risk you ever took. What was the result?

I’ve written about this prompt before. Still the answer is the same. The biggest risk we took as a little family was to leave everything we knew behind and go to a place where we knew absolutely no one. 1972, my husband, three year old daughter and myself sold our home, two businesses, everything we owned and left our families in England and flew to Australia. No direct flights in those days. It took 2 days of flying to get to Perth in the middle of a very cold rainy night.
To say I was scared and homesick is the least of it. My daughter was missing home, her grandparents whom used to live next door and I thought we’d made the worst decision of our lives.
It worked out fine!
