Carrie Underwood Can’t Get Enough Of ‘Halloween’
With fans loving the interaction, apparently, Underwood opened up about her love for horror movies in the past. Back in 2021, she spoke about her fascination with Halloween with Cody Alan. “I love this season! There are so many movies on TV… The ‘Halloween’ series is definitely a favorite!” She continued, “I have some gnarly dreams… I mean even when we watch TV, we watch a lot of investigation discovery stuff or ‘Snapped,’ or like, they’re trying to figure out these mysteries. I don’t know why I gravitate toward those. I just do.”

Fans appeared to agree with Underwood’s love for horror movies as comments read, “This is surprising, I can’t even watch the gremlins!” Another person insisted, “Haha Luke. I would have never pictured Carrie as a horror movie fan! But I’m here for it.”
