Those were just his favorite trophies. We don’t know how many didn’t make it onto the wall…

I think I’m going to do scary one-liners for the rest of October. My family doesn’t celebrate Halloween because it’s a Satanic holiday that has pagan origins.
I have to get my celebrations in somehow.

This sounds just like something my husband might say. Morbid sense of humor and likes to shock people. I’ve coached him to tone it down so he doesn’t scare others away. He’s not a psychopath but other “normal” people may not know that about him bc of his jokes.
