On this episode of the Live Like An Acrobat Podcast, host Shenea Stiletto interviews Bonnie Morgan, a third generation performer. In “The Ring Two,” she shocked horror fans with her terrifying and now infamous “spider crawl” performance as ‘Samara,’ chasing Naomi Watt’s character out of the well. Bonnie took over the iconic role of ‘Samara’ in the “ Rings 3,” where she returned with a familiar video tape to strike terror once again.

She worked for Steven Spielberg in Minority Report alongside Tom Cruise, Ron Howard as a Who in How The Grinch Stole Christmas, and marauded through the Troll Market for Guillermo del Torro in Hell Boy 2: The Golden Army. 

Most recently Bonnie played Judy Punch on  AMC’s Hap and Leonard and Colette in seasons 2 and 3 of A Series of Unfortunate Events starring Neil Patrick Harris.
