Laura's Humor, Horror & Humorous Horror List

Laura's Humor, Horror & Humorous Horror ListMeet Laura: Hi, I'm Laura, your local Library Assistant.  When I'm not helping my fellow Phoenicians with reference questions, conducting Storytimes, or teaching computer classes, I can be found in... um... er... the library! Checking out all of the items on my list! Aside from my affinity for libraries, I love motion pictures, music, history, and food!

 

Meet her list:  I appreciate the lighter AND darker sides of life.  When the two collide it is simply perfection! Below you will find an array of items that will make you LQTY (laugh quietly to yourself), scream or both!
