Halloween is fast approaching and soon it with be time to string up those Christmas lights and get out the tree. I enjoy decorating for the holidays. What I don’t enjoy is the cost added to the electric bill. Now don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t stop me from putting up those lights but has years go by I am always on the look out for new and improved ways to save on electricity. So when I heard about LED holiday lights I just had to know more.

LED string lights use about 90% less energy then the incandescent lights which will save you a nice chunk of change during the holiday season. They also last for more then 50,000 hours so you won’t be haunted by that one dead light that I know plagues all of us while decorating. Plus they are extremely durable (and nearly indestructible) thanks to the epoxy plastic that they are made out of.

I got to mention that the lights put off very little heat so they are safe to the touch even after being on for hours and by just using the LED Christmas lights will help to reduce the risk of accidental home fires during the holiday season.

Those reason right there are why I will be switching over to LED lights for my holiday decorating.

1. If you’re all alone on a dark and stormy night when a particularly scary movie comes on, will you watch it or change the channel?
Hell yeah. I watch scary movies by myself in this big, old, dark house all the time. That’s how you’re suppose to watch them.

2. If you could remake any old horror movie, which one would you choose and why?
I wouldn’t remake any horror movie. A lot of times (there are some exceptions) remaking them ruins the original.

3. If you had the chance to spend the night in a room that you really believed was haunted by a malevolent ghost, would you?
Hell Yea!

4. Take the quiz: What is your Halloween personality?

5. Who is your favorite horror writer/novelist?
No doubt in my mind, Stephen King! I have read just about ever book he has ever written under his name and also under is pseudo name Richard Bachman.

6. How many years has it been since you last went trick-or-treating?
Well, it’s been a couple of years since I have taken Raven out trick or treating cause she was going with her Aunt.

Nope, just the desktop computer right now but I would love to have a laptop also.
