Khyron's Top 10

Things to do on Halloween:

10 - Watch Stephen King's It on the SciFi Channel's 13 Days of Halloween marathon. I'm sure George Noory won't be.

9 - Take a candle into a dark bathroom and have a staring contest with your reflection in the mirror. Ideally, you will never beat yourself at it. If you do, seek help.

8 - For those fortunate enough to have access, The Encore Channel will be airing Zack Snyder's 2004 remake of Dawn of the Dead. While not nearly as good as George Romero's original, the opening and title sequences make it definitely worth checking out.

7 - As part of it's Monster Fest marathon, AMC will be airing the original Friday the 13th. In a world of countless sequels, it's refreshing to see the first in the series that started it all.

6 - Dress up in whichever costume you choose and simply stare out a front window at Trick or Treaters. Nothing is more unsettling then seeing someone staring out at you. Don't believe me? Give it a try and see how people react.

5 - Turn off all of the lights and post a 'Not Home' sign on your front door, then watch your favorite horror movie on DVD. I recommend the new releases Land of the Dead and the Saw Director's Cut, or classics like Alien, The Thing, or 28 Days Later.

4 - Turn off all of the lights and post a 'Not Home' sign, but be honestly away and go see Saw II in theatres. Just make sure you check out the first one before hand. Ha..."see Saw..."

3 - Again, turn off the lights and make sure you wont be interrupted by Trick or Treaters. Choose your favorite horror video game and play it on the hardest difficulty, with the sound cranked up, with your back to an empty room. I recommend Doom 3, Silent Hill (any of them), Resident Evil (again, doesn't matter which one), or the recently Reviewed F.E.A.R.

2 - Hunker down for the master Art Bell and his annual Ghost to Ghost AM radio show. For best results, turn off the lights, lay in bed, and try to avoid any external distractions. By midnight, there shouldn't be any kids wandering the streets, so no need to post the 'Not Home' sign.

1 - No matter what you choose to do, just try to be scared and have fun. Happy Halloween, everyone. Peace.
