October is finally here which means that there are a lot of scary movies being watched. Some people, however, would rather watch a series instead of a movie. Although scary TV shows usually don't have the same effect as movies, they can still be scary enough. Most of the spooky TV shows that I have seen follow a storyline that keeps you wanting more. The plots are full of monster fights, crazy twists, and revelations with the perfect amount of normal and creepy!

Black Mirror

Most people have seen black mirror but if you haven't, this show spooks you in a variety of ways, depending on the episode. Some episodes keep me on my feet and others are just plain weird.

American Horror Story

American Horror Story isn't as scary as it is creepy. Each season has a different theme, most of which follow a twisted story line. It's probably one of the best TV shows to watch- especially during October.

Bates Motel

As a son and his mother open a hotel, the locals aren't friendly because they know the truth about the hotel. This series will definitely keep you on your toes with hauntings and plot twists.

Supernatural

Season one is Supernatural's most scary season, however if you get sucked into this show it will likely become a favorite. The Winchesters fight all types of monsters that creep in the night and they work their way up to the tougher opponents. Each season gets more intense with a different antagonist for almost every season. This is a show that will keep you involved all the way to the end.

Penny Dreadful

This show is a psychological thriller that is about slaying monsters while solving mysteries. It hasn't been airing for long but the plot is captivating.

The Haunting of Hill House

This series follows siblings who grow up and have to face ghosts of their past. Although this series hasn't been airing for long, it is still a great one to watch.

Van Helsing

This series is about the world being overrun by vampires while Vanessa Helsing holds the power to turn vampires into humans. As Vanessa is fighting monsters and saving humanity, you'll be kept wondering what the next plot twist is going to be.

Wynonna Earp

Wynonna only has one task- and that is to take out resurrected souls of criminals that her great grandfather brought down. As the main character is a demon protector, there are lots of plot twists in this series that will definitely hold your attention.

Scream The TV Series

While mirroring some things from the movie franchise, it takes on its own story line, a new look for Ghost Face, and an all new group of friends.

From 3 To 89, Ages Referenced In Taylor Swift Songs

Are you at one of the ages mentioned in Taylor Swift's songs?

Before Taylor Swift's transition from a country/pop sweetheart to a crazed vengeful victim, I was a huge fan of hers. I've been listening to her music for as long as I can remember.

Over the years, as an observant T Swift fan, I've noticed her penchant for mentioning ages in her songs. Maybe she does this so she can look back on these songs and remember how old she was when she had these experiences. Or maybe she does it so her fans have another level to relate to her on. For at least my past seven birthdays, I've checked to see if Taylor Swift mentioned my new age in one of her songs.

About two months ago, after a five-year hiatus, Andrew Hozier-Byrne released a well-awaited EP, Nina Cried Power, and today marks the release of a new single 'Movement.'

Since the release of 'Take Me to Church,' I have been a huge fan of the amazing Irish musician. Hozier's music is incredibly thought-out and simultaneously soothes the soul and awakens the kindred, lost wandering part of you.

This is just a quick response to a post I saw that basically shamed other people for how they choose to deal with their mental health.

Hozier is not just an amazing singer, but also an incredible songwriter.

1. "The only heaven I'll be sent to is when I'm alone with you."

2. "Would things be easier if there was a right way? Honey, there is no right way."

3. "No better version I could pretend to be tonight."

4. Babe, there's something so lonesome about you, something so wholesome about you."

5. "And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted."

6. "All you have is your fire and the place you need to reach. Don't ever tame your demons, but always keep 'em on a leash."

7. "It's not the waking, it's the rising."

8. "I will not as you where you came from, I will not ask you, neither should you."

9. "Babe, there's something so tragic about you, something so magic about you; don't you agree?"

10. "We'll lay here for years or for hours, your hand in my hand, so still and discreet."

11. "Her eyes and words are so icy, oh, but she burns like rum on fire."

12. "I've no language left to say it, all I do is crave to her."

13. "Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago."

14. "'Cause there's no better love that's laid beside me. There's no better love that justifies me, there's no better."

15. Give your heart and soul to charity 'cause the rest of you, the best of you, honey, belongs to me."

16. "'Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done, I need to be youthfully felt, 'cause God I never felt young."

17. "You and I nursing on a poison that never stung, our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it."

18. "There's an art to life's distractions; to somehow escape the burn weight. The art of scraping through."

19. "I turned and ran to save a life I didn't have."

20. "My lover's got humor, she's the giggle at a funeral. Knows everybody's disapproval, I should've worshipped her sooner."

21. "We tried the world, good God, it wasn't for us."

What came first: The chicken or the egg?

1. Is water wet?

2. Is a hot dog a sandwich?

3. Does a straw have two holes or one?

4. Is cereal considered soup?

5. Is a thumb a finger?

6. If you are at a restaurant and your waiter doesn't come back, are you the waiter?

7. Last but not least, which came first — the chicken or the egg?
