and handsome men. It’s really fun.
It’s different than anything I’ve ever
done. That’s what’s cool about doing
supernatural stuff; it’s as far as your
imagination can go.
How was it starting with the cast?
The boys are incredibly nice. They are
talented and charming and from all
different parts of the world. We shoot
in Atlanta, so you get close quickly
because you want to go out together
and experience the town. There’s the
other guest cast that’s with me playing
my other two sons. They’re really great.
It’s just a boy fest, and it’s really fun.

Any particular moment that stuck
out to you on set?
It’s really awesome to be in the graveyard
set. They built this giant graveyard in
the middle of Atlanta, and it’s so pretty.
My first night when I was shooting
the very last episode of season 1, I’m
Cassie crawling out of her grave. They
pumped it full of this smoke from the
smoke machine. It was in the middle of
the night, and there was like a thousand
candles lit, and it was a magical, crazy
looking scene. You felt transported into
this weird world, and then I was doing
this zombie walk out of the tomb and
someone started playing “Thriller” over
the loudspeaker. I started doing the
dance. You just immediately know that
it’s a fun place to work.
What are some of your favorite
things to do when not filming?
I really love working with kids. I’m a
big baby fanatic and want to be a mom
someday, so whenever I get a chance to
work with kids or help out or babysit, I
love being around kids. I also really love
other art forms: photography and spoken
word poetry. I’ve gotten a little bit
obsessed with it on YouTube. I’ve been
watching hours of spoken word poetry.
It’s really amazing. It was one Upworthy
video from Facebook, and I was on a
48-hour-journey on YouTube. I started
writing all these poems and trying to
figure out a place I can start performing
them.
