Spooky's Swirls: Made in Arizona

For around 20 years, Chris Szydlowski has loved collecting movie props and wardrobe —  especially horror film memorabilia. But her collection sits somewhere you might not expect: in the middle of the bakery she owns with her wife, Lola Forbes.

Szydlowski has been a pastry chef for around the same amount of time that she's loved collecting.

Spooky’s Swirls is a gluten-free bakery that combines the couples’ love of horror films with their love of baking.

It’s an unlikely combination that’s become a hit. In fact, Forbes just competed on the Food Network’s “Halloween Baking Championship.”

The Show got a tour of their little shop of horrors and spoke with them to learn how it all got started.
