I write about my childhood a lot here on Halloween Love but I suppose that’s inevitable. Every drop of passion and love I have for the horror genre was born and developed in my youth. As I’ve always said … it was age-appropriate imagery that first sparked my interest in horror and that just grew …
Though I have a whole lot of fondness for the 1980s, as most horror fans do, the truth of the matter is that I wasn’t born until midway through 1986, and so my childhood memories are largely centered around the 1990s. While I played with many 80s toys as a kid – thanks to the …
