"My Favorite Things"
   
 
     
  When Halloween approaches, we all remember and anticipate some of our favorite All Hallows Eve pleasures.

Dark Romance wondered what would make a perfect Halloween for others in the horror community, so we asked some friends to share their thoughts about the things that make the holiday exciting for them:

What might be their perfect dream costume, or what was their favorite costume ever? What is the best Trick or Treat candy? How about the ultimate Halloween Night movie double-feature? Is there specific music that would be on a soundtrack to accompany a Halloween night? And what's the perfect way to spend All Hallow's Eve?

My Favorite Things: Halloween Perfections
Jovanka Vuckovic
Jovanka Vuckovic
In 2005, Jovanka Vuckovic traded her life as a digital effects artist for that of editor-in-chief of Rue Morgue Magazine, the brilliant publication devoted to horror in culture and entertainment, chosen by the magazine's founder, Rodrigo Gudiño, because of her talent for writing and her intense devotion to dark artistry. Under Jovanka's editorship, Rue Morgue has grown in scope and size, offering amazing excellence with every issue.

Jovanka's Perfect Halloween: I'm pretty old-fashioned when it comes to Halloween. I like to decorate the house, carve elaborate jack-o-lanterns and share the shit out of little kids.
   
Her Perfect Costume: "I'd love it if I could get my friend Rob Bottin to do me up as The Thing - complete with animatronic tentacles and jawtrap stomach. Now THAT would be the best Halloween costume ever!"
   
Where she'll be on Halloween 2009: "The Frankenstein Formal," Rue Morgue Magazine's big Halloween bash, takes place on the 31st this year, so I'll likely be there all night being festive with the Rue Crew and our guests."
