If I loved horror the way you do, I wouldn't want to deprive myself. I'd enjoy it year round. But that's just me.
How about you cut off a portion of horror? Perhaps do a slasher marathon, or just TV series. Beat a record without trying to beat all of the records at once, and give yourself a well-deserved rest.
I say don't let let yourself get manipulated by numbers and statistics. Do what you feel like doing. You don't feel like cutting off horror? Don't.And you know, there comes a point where breaking a viewing records becomes impossible without having the movies fed to you through IV .. so see this as an option on keepin the trend going longer by taking a sabatical on beating the stats!
Yeah... think I will put certain titles aside for October... but other then that allow myself to watch horror. At least for a while yet.

Life is too short to deprive yourself of something you love. Watch what you want whenever you want. You can still have a marathon of horror movies in October...you have so many of them.
