HORRORVILLE To kick off the week of Halloween, heres a video that includes a trick and a treat for your scaredy cat pleasure.

First of all, I am not one of those people who loves to be scared; its not fun. I do love a good, suspenseful movie that keeps me on the edge of my seat, but if 80 percent of the movie is made up of jump scares? Get real.

So you wont find me at a spook alley unless you pay me a large sum of money, and my first reaction will be to punch you in self-defense if you hide around a corner to scare me. Look, I cant help it if I have a healthy sense of personal safety.

All that being said, I know there are hordes of you out there who love to be sacred. You love that adrenaline rush and find yourself returning for more and more. And youve probably been that way since you were a kid to boot.

As anecdotal proof (which actually proves nothing), I present this video. Normally I wouldnt post anything about purposefully scaring a child, but this is a little different, because he loves it. The beautiful part of the video isnt that he enjoys it; its his perfect, movie-reaction scream.

You have to see it fully appreciate it, which will only take 21 seconds of your day.

The video was first posted in December, but is currently gaining traction because of Halloween.

The driver of a semi-tractor hauling a trailer received what appeared to be minor injuries Saturday afternoon when the vehicle left Interstate 70 in Russell County and overturned.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reports the crash occurred at 1:51 on April 15, 4 miles east of U.S. 281 on I-70. The eastbound 2022 International was driven by Todd E. Collins, age 44, of Winchester, Kansas. The vehicle went off the roadway to the right, struck a guardrail and went into the south ditch, where it overturned and came to rest.

Collins was wearing a safety restraint. 

He was transported to Russell Regional Hospital.
