“1000-Lb. Sisters’” Amy Slaton Shares Shocking Inspiration Behind Her Kids’ Names
Amy Slaton isn’t afraid to go dark with baby names.
That’s why during E! News’ exclusive look at the Dec. 10 episode of 1000-Lb. Sisters, the TLC star—who shares sons Gage, 4, and Glenn, 2, with ex-husband Michael Halterman—revealed, “I name my kids after horror characters.”
And it seems Amy took inspiration from famously possessed children featured in spooky works of art. After all, Gage was also the name of the murderous child in Stephen King‘s Pet Sematary, while Chucky and his demonic bride Tiffany’s son was named Glen in the 2004 scary movie Seed of Chucky.
But Amy’s love of all-things horror doesn’t just stop with names. While embarking on a haunted tour in London, she jumped at the chance to come face-to-face with a so-called “cursed painting.”
“I’ll touch it,” she quipped in E! News’ sneak peek. “I ain’t scared.”
However, her sister Tammy Slaton—who also shares an interest in the supernatural—refused to go anywhere near the portrait.
