Cinemonster's original list: letterboxd.com/cinemonster/list/hooptober-x-hooptober-hooptober-let-satan/

One half of the podcast duo in After the Kid Goes Down, I've been forced to watch some horror as part of our Season line ups and... I don't hate it as much as I thought I would? I think what I like best about horror is that you can go real cute with it. Accessorize your horror. Anyway, I'm new to both Hooptober and the genre in general.

Here's my list, feel free to comment or suggest alternates. Open to the teachings of others.
