BROWN) / mb.com.ph Linda Blair poses on arrival for “Halloween Horror Nights” at Universal Studios Hollywood in Universal City, California on September 16, 2016. “This is a party for me, for the film, for my animals, because everything as far as merchandise goes to the Linda Blair Worldheart Foundation on my percentage,” she tells AFP.
