HAPPY HALLO-W-E-E-N-I-E !
Although I hope to carve a pumpkin (and toast the seeds), I would have loved to have had the time and energy to decorate my house. Instead, I will settle for decorating the dog. But, what is Halloween without scaring yourself, a least a little bit? (No, I’m not talking about the current Republican candidates for President…Besides, they won’t disappear after Halloween.)
I was thinking of the old-fashioned kind, the kind that makes you afraid to turn your computer on and communicate with friends. You know, the kind of terror only a hacker could invoke. However, I thought I’d look for something mildly scary, for Hallo-weenies like me.
I found this link while doing research for an assignment for my Social Media class at Texas State University. This site works by mining Facebook information, willingly given by the owner of the account (or, as in my case, given with great reservation). In the name of research, I allowed ‘Take This Lollipop’ access to my Facebook account.
The mastermind behind this online interactive site, Jason Zada, a television and music director who works in Los Angeles and San Francisco, “…promises that the site is intended purely for entertainment, and a fun, seasonal thrill.”
Paranoia aside, I’m a big baby when it comes to the horror genre in any medium and this interactive video creeped me out!
For the PG-13 viewers in the audience, be warned!
For the rest of you, enjoy!
HAPPY H-O-W-L-A-WEEN!
