Wallman, of Marlborough, CT., who turns nine on September 13, is a big fan of Stephen King. He is currently reading King’s It. He loves reading horror and watching horror movies, he said. He will grow up to be a horror writer or a make-up artist, his mom, Sheena said. He dressed up as the Cryptkeeper from Tales from the Crypt last Halloween and did his own make-up, his mom said. This year he will be dressing up as the Leprechaun from the 1993 movie Leprechaun.
