| 5 Essentials for surviving a Horror film |

Its now officially October. This can only mean one thing… Halloween. With halloween, comes a plethora of gore-filled, bloodcurdling and chilling horror films, films we cant help but watch in the month. However, we have all shouted at the screen ‘don’t go in there!’, as the dumb blonde enters the cellar. We’ve all spectated from a third party perspective in entertainment. But how would we feel about being in the films ourselves, what would we take to ward off vampires, survive from zombies or hide from the classic slasher villain?

The team over at Man Crates have acted on this much speculated over question. Seeing as they cater to the needs of a wide variety, with extraordinary gifts for men they want to know what the ideal crate would look like if you were looking to survive a horror film.  

Of course, in the horror genre there is a plentiful amount of sub-genres, like slasher flick, gothic horror, zombie film and body horror. This being said, this is my personal list of the essentials needed to survive the majority of them. 

5. Boom Stick

Ash definitely got this one bang on. With the iconic boom stick you can ward off all evil you might find in a horror film.


4. Vampire kit

In my eyes, this is an essential. The old fashioned and authentic vampire trunk is all you need, complete with stakes, bibles and of course a little bit of garlic.



Man Crates offer the perfect necessity to any zombie flick. If dawn of the dead, 28 days later or Night of the Living Dead had this kit with them, the slaughter may have gone a lot smoother. 


2. Twinkies

In true Zombieland style, you've got to enjoy the small things. 



1. Sidekick

Where would the protagonist be without the faithful sidekick? Most likely dead. This is why you need an Ed (Shaun of the Dead), Jack (An American Werewolf in London), Annie (Halloween), or Glen (Nightmare on Elm Street) when surviving any horror film.
