“I am the keeper of whimsical knowledge. I can tell you everything you’d like to know about Halloween traditions. For instance, did you know that the original "Jack-o'-lanterns" were from Ireland and they were made from turnips, not pumpkins! The practice was believed to ward off evil spirits.”
“This isn’t funny anymore…this could get dangerous!”

“What don’t I do? I’m the headliner, baby. Every night, I give these tourists a show they’ll never forget—assuming they’ve got the taste to appreciate it.”
“This rickety little stage? It’s cute, but I’m thinking bigger. Cabaret clubs, city lights, a residency somewhere people actually dress up for. This festival’s fun—for now—but I’m not gonna sit here playing second fiddle to a pie-eating contest forever.”
