From her killer sense of humor to her kind and down-to-earth personality, Emma Kenney is the type of person anyone would want as their best friend. The horoscope-loving 22-year-old actress has been in the spotlight for the majority of her life, but she is only just getting started.
Trick or treat yo’self to these Amazon goodies!
Real Housewives of New York alum, Dorinda Medley, is known for going big around the holidays, and Halloween is certainly no exception. Every year, Dorinda hosts a big Halloween dinner at her iconic Blue Stone Manner in the Berkshires. We guess you could say she is the hallow-queen. (Sorry, we had to.)
This year, Dorinda teamed up with Amazon to turn the Manner into a “Haunted Smart Mansion” for the festivities. The Dracula themed party, with an invitation that read, “dress like you’re going to Transylvania,” had Amazon finds that were a “game changer,” according to Dorinda.
From a screaming Ring doorbell, to Amazon Smart Plugs that allow Alexa to turn on decorations, Dorinda gave trick-or-treaters pumpkin to talk about.
Dorinda, who dressed up as Dracula’s girlfriend this year, says that she decorates her home, built in 1902, with items from her grandmother, her mother and from Amazon. And while decorating the inside of your home is important, Dorinda says that “decorating starts in the entryway.”
“It’s the first impression,” said Medley. “Its where you greet trick-or-treaters, so consider how you’re setting the tone.”
Not only does decorating make Dorinda’s home spooky and festive, she loves to do it. “Decorating is just in my soul. I just think it’s a great way to welcome people, to make people feel good.” Well, it’s certainly making us feel good!
And apparently the gift of decorating runs in Dorinda’s family. “I come from a decorating family,” Dorinda told the Knockturnal. “If you went to my parents house right now, and they’re in their late eighties, you would think they have young children.”
I don’t know about you guys, but we’re hoping we’re on next years invite list!

“All About That Bass” singer Meghan Trainor is now “All About That Bank” with a new podcast, a new TV show, and a new partnership with Gerber. But her most important job? Being a new mom.
Orange is the New Black star, Taryn Manning, has had quite the busy summer preparing for two new films to come out, Karen and The Gateway.
We all have one (or two) too many “Karens” in our lives, but Taryn Manning’s role is your neighborhood “Karen” on steroids. Karen, available to stream September 3, centers on a racist woman named Karen, played by Manning, who makes it her personal mission to get rid of the new Black family that moved in next door.
But having only one movie come out on September 3 would be light work for Taryn Manning. The Gateway, available on Google Play and Amazon Prime on September 3, starring Olivia Munn, Shea Whigham, and Frank Grillo, is a mystery about a social worker trying to protect his client from her recently paroled husband.
Taryn Manning sat down with the Knockturnal to discuss the new films, as well as what it was like playing such a harsh and cruel character in Karen, and the backlash she has faced since the release of the film.
“So many people have called me out on Instagram and just attacked me about playing this role.” says Manning. “All the while, isn’t that a “Karen” in and of itself to take the time to abuse me for doing this?”
Check out our full interview with Taryn Manning below and make sure to watch Karen and The Gateway available September 3.
