October Poll: Favorite Horror Series?

• A Nightmare on Elm Street 10.3% 3
• Friday the 13th 3.4% 1
• Halloween 0% 0
• Child's Play 34.5% 10
• Texas Chainsaw Massacre 10.3% 3
• Phantasm 0% 0
• Hellraiser 13.8% 4
• ....of the Dead 13.8% 4
• Other 6.9% 2
• I don't like horror 6.9% 2
• total votes: 29

Needless to say, I was shocked by the results. Even with the low turnout, they did not come out the way I expected. I expected the Friday or Nightmare series to take the top spot. Never in my wildest dreams did I think the killer doll had such a following to outdo some of the other horror icons.

My personal favorite of those choices is Nightmare on Elm Street. The Freddy Krueger nightmares may not have all been successful, but I admire the attempts at a continuity and the creativity that went into the creations.

The results are rather self explanatory. Outside of Chucky running away with number 1, the rest of them all come out rather equally. I am surprised that there are no Halloween fans out there, however.

Be sure to vote in the new poll!
