Linda Blair just turned 62. Oooooh scary!

Years ago my Mother-in-law began reading “The Exorcist”. She said it was the most evil book she ever read.
So evil in fact, she couldn’t finish it, took it to the ocean and threw it off the pier.
I went out and bought another copy, ran it under the faucet and left it beside her bed.

OMG! LOL! You win the Horror Internets for today!

My own Mother read ‘Jaws’ then handed the book to me and said, ‘You have GOT to read this!’

I was like 14 at the time, LOL!

She’d also wake me up int he middle of the night if there was a scary movie playing on TV - but she didn’t want to ‘watch it alone.’

She woke me up for ‘Helter Skelter!’

I come by my various psychosis honestly, at least!

"Linda Blair just turned 62. Oooooh scary!"

Met her at a local comic con several years ago with my youngest son who's now 54. She's into animal rescue. Runs her own foundation.

At the same event, we met "Candyman" Tony Todd, now deceased, and "Ghostbusters" Ernie Hudson. Both of them were very nice to talk to. Boris Karloff's daughter, Sara Karloff was there selling memorabilia of her father. She was born in 1938. I was born in 1947. I bought a magnet with a picture of her Dad on it. I thought it was pretty cool meeting his daughter, seeing as I grew up watching his films.

Ok, that’s funny right there, I laughed.

And for the record, I get along great with my MIL.
