These engagement photos are to die for (literally!)

Some people think flowers are romantic, others fancy candlelit dinners ... and there's Toronto couple Vanessa Lawson and Josh Morden.

The pair are high school sweethearts who've been together eight years. When Josh proposed, Vanessa had very specific ideas about how her engagement photos should look.  As Yahoo Shine explains: "She wanted them taken in the woods, among the beautiful turning leaves of autumn. And there had to be lots of blood, obviously. 'We knew exactly how we wanted to die. We definitely wanted the shot of the killer standing in the woods staring at us as we held hands'."

Awwww, sweet!

The bride-to-be added: "You could say we have a flair for the dramatic. We have an insane collection of horror films at home -- I guess it's a bond that we share."

Behold their engagement photo shoot, which is interrupted by the machete-wielding Jason Voorhees from the "Friday the 13th" movies (warning, some of the images are VERY graphic):
