'Questions for card issuers' blog earns me a spot in horror movie-themed carnival

Want to scare your bank this Halloween? Call up and ask some tough questions about how they treat their customers.

That suggestion -- which is typically good for frightening lenders year round, by the way -- was the focus of my recent blog, "Posing tough credit card questions to your bank." The blog listed some questions borrowers should be asking their banks and earned me an inclusion in the Halloween Horror Movies edition of the Carnival of Personal Finance.

The Halloween edition of the carnival collected the Web's best personal finance posts and categorized them appropriately for this time of year under such headers as "A Nightmare on Elm Street," "The Exorcist" and "The Shining." (My post appears in the "Identity" section, named after the Ray Liotta/John Cusack/Amanda Peet film of that name.)
