Just because you’re a vegan, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your favorite pies. Especially Pecan Pie!! Here’s a recipe we found for “Amazing Pecan Pie”

1/2 cup raw sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons nondairy milk (I use soy)
2 egg substitutes (I use Bob’s Red Mill substitute)
8 tablespoons vegan butter, melted (I use Earth Balance)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup pecans
1 9″ unbaked pie crust

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix ingredients. They come out watery.

2. Pour into the pie shell. Place on a cookie sheet and put into the oven for 20 minutes.

3. Reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 20 minutes or longer.

4. Check, center should be slightly soft, but if it seems too watery, bake for 20 more minutes.

Source of recipe: This recipe was inspired by a recipe I got from my mom, I’ve taken it, rewritten it, and vegan-ized it.

Makes: 1 pie, Preparation time: 10 minutes, Cooking time: 40-60 minutes

Yeah, we may be biased. Michael Jackson was our childhood. So, of course watching Michael Jackson’s famous Thriller music video still gets us in the mood for some trick or treatin! Enjoy!

13. Creepshow: A classic from our youth, always managed to keep you awake at night.

12. Poltergeist: A classic. Should never be remade.

11. House on Haunted Hill: Not an overall creepy movie, but this sure had a ton of really terrifying scenes. The scene with the hand held camera gets us every time!!

10. Stir of Echoes: Great movie with even better acting?! Unheard of. Until Stir of Echoes, love this flick.

9. Arachnophobia: Ahhh! Spiders! No really, if you can’t even stand a daddy long legs…you will just freak at this movie. Makes you want a shower after.

8. Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003): Just when you thought you couldn’t love Texas Chainsaw Massacre anymore, they came out with an amazing remake in 2003! Yes, the original is still a keeper. But you have to admit the remake is incredible. Especially the opening scene!

7. The Orphanage: Totally worth reading the subtitles of this Spanish flick. Also, tons of creepy kids. Great ending too.

6. Amityville Horror: Great original with a pretty good remake. Nothing beats the creepy original with its haunting music and in your face visuals!

5. The Exorcist: Spinning heads. Projectile vomiting. Oh, and the best part….creepily walking backwards on all fours. Who needs CG and crazy special effects? Scary stuff on its own. Tons of Halloween costume ideas…friends around you..not guaranteed.

4. Nightmare on Elm Street: The original will always be the best. You can’t beat such a great character like Freddy, those claws and that face. He always has the best one-liners!

3. Rosemary’s Baby: Mia Farrow is such a creepy mother of an even creepier offspring in this eerie horror flick. Sends chills down your spine.

2. The Shining: We love Stanley Kubrick! The director of this movie adapted from a stunningly horrific book by Stephen King. A thriller from beginning to end, this movie that stays with you. Long empty hallways have never looked the same for many since.

1. Halloween: The original is the best. Nothing beats that mask and creepy music. Nothing.

Happy Halloween! Time to get cozy on the couch for some scary movie watching!!!

So, a friend of ours send us a link to this site. We were automatically intrigued by the title of this particular post “Sneaky Hate Spiral“. We laughed, and then read. After ten minutes of laughing to the point tears were streaming down our faces, we agreed everyone has had a day like this so everyone and even their grandmas should read it. The badly drawn illustration even makes it that much better.
