@author_matthewflagler: Happy Halloween! 🎃👻 Today we’re doing something a little different. No politics. No economics. No deep dives into the issues facing our society. Just a little story about me that you probably wouldn’t expect. You’d think someone who spent a career as a firefighter, writes horror fiction, and regularly wades into contentious conversations on the internet would be pretty difficult to frighten. Well… Let’s just say that wasn’t always the case. 😂 And the things that absolutely TERRIFIED me growing up? Yeah. You’re gonna laugh. So grab a coffee, sneak a chocolate bar from the Halloween candy stash, and spend a few minutes with me as I share a rather embarrassing glimpse into my childhood. Because apparently, even horror writers have origin stories. And mine is ridiculous. Happy Halloween, everybody! 🧡 💬 And after you’ve watched, tell me: What’s something that terrified YOU as a kid that you can laugh about today? #halloween #halloweenstory #childhoodmemories #horrorauthor #unsated
