Horrifically Fun: Nancy's Museum of Horror and Rejects Dolls
PATOKA - At first glance, Nancy Ansley seems like a regular artist. But Nancy, the founder of Nancy’s Museum of Horror and Rejects by Nancy Dolls, is not your typical painter. With her museum filled with horror movie scenes and her thriving business of gory dolls, Nancy stays in the Halloween spirit year-round. She hopes that everyone who checks out the museum or dolls learns to love horror as much as she does. “It doesn’t seem like work to me,” Nancy said of running her various businesses. “I just always loved it. I would stay up all night painting and sewing and things like that…I want to be down there painting in my studio all the time.” A longtime horror fan, Nancy has always gone all-out for Halloween.

Lisa Webb & Third Street Realty on Buying in a Tight Market
BUNKER HILL - If you’ve ever sold or bought a house, you already know the headache that it can cause. But that process is as painless as possible with Lisa Webb of Third Street Realty . CJ Nasello hosts a segment with Webb on Our Daily Show every third Wednesday of the month. On a recent segment of “Third on Third With Third Street Realty,” Webb and CJ talked about buying and selling in a tight market and all the realty tips you need for an easy move. “It can be very stressful, especially for a first-time homebuyer,” Webb said. “Communication is the key thing.
