    When I was a kid Unsolved Mysteries scared the crap out of me. My mom and dad never missed a episode either. That voice still creeps me out. I thought every killer was outside my house peeking in the windows lol. That music was haunting

      There's a super spooky episode of the original Unsolved Mysteries show about a UFO in the Rendlesham forest of England at a U.S. Air Force base that was there. It's one of the earlier seasons. I wish I knew the name of the episode, it's on TV I'll have to find it. It shows the Air Force men staring at the red orb in the woods. That show was eerie! 😊 Some UFO stories I definitely believe, like that kid last year in Las Vegas, and the Congressional hearings last year. I believe it. I can't stand it when people fake a story and ruin it for others.

    Good list. The Jersey shark attacks happened in 1916. There is a tv movie called 12 Days of Terror, based on the actual events.
    I’m from Cleveland like Wes Craven. So on spooky nights I would look out the window for the guy he saw in the fedora.
    The Hills Have Eyes is a good one based on true events. The Girl Next Door is loosely based on a true story. An American Crime is a better film based on the same story. And a more accurate portrayal.

    The first time I watched The Conjuring my wife and kids went out of town with my in-laws and I stayed home by myself because I had to work. Well I was flipping through the channels and I saw this was coming on Showtime, or one of those types of channels. So I kicked back and watched this late at night alone at my house.
    When it was over, I went and turned all the lights on and left them on for the rest of the night.
    I've been a horror fan my entire life, and I'm not the least bit ashamed to say that that scared the crap out of me. I love The Conjuring series. All the spin-offs, everything.

    As for my favorite, Psycho takes the cake. The mother son quarreling and the mentality of Norman, that's all Ed Gein. Gein's mom was a total crazy maker just like the mom's querulousness portrayal in Psycho. She bickered at him about women, like the mom's "voice" does a little bit in Psycho. I recently read Halloween was inspired by Psycho and the name Dr. Loomis came from Sam Loomis in Psycho. In H20 the actual woman from the famous Psycho shower scene, Janet Leigh, was named Norma in H20 (like Norman Bates). She was driving a replica car from Psycho and she's Jamie Lee's mom in real life. So Halloween and Psycho are intricately connected. 😊

    This is a great list. I personally never enjoyed The Strangers because the story was just "random violence for the sake of it" and I really appreciate at least some deeper motivation. It's also slightly less scary because of what you alluded too 😂 I've got "tools" in many calibers that will deter home invasion lol.

    The scariest or most disturbing true story made a movie is the story of Christine Chubbuck who was a new reporter for a local tv network that blew her brains out on live tv. The movie is called christine (2016) So what happened was Christine Chubbuck was filling in for another news reporter that day and snuck a handgun in her purse and just stopped in the middle of the broadcast and put the gun to her head and pulled the trigger. It was what her last words were that was so disturbing about the whole situation.

    The Serpent and the Rainbow script is also based off of true events and is pretty creepy and overlooked as well to me. The script was made by Richard Maxwell and Adam Rodman and is loosely based on the non-fiction book of the same name by ethnobotanist Wade Davis, wherein Davis recounted his experiences in Haiti investigating the story of Clairvius Narcisse, who was allegedly poisoned, buried alive, and revived with a herbal brew to turn them into zombies essentially.

      GO DAWGS! I''m alumni from '92...bleed red & black (my grandfather was star of the team in '36 and '37!) but don't like what I seeing this season...poor tackling, avg run game, avg pass rush, Beck 6th best in the SEC with too many INT and forced passes after being a Heisman favorite? More penalties too; just undisciplined un "smart" playing. Disappointing play in my eyes, but being a preseason #1 is a jinx. We experienced that with Richt too.
      I feel we lose tomo unless our D somehow morphs back to the level of the last 4 years...and if Beck and the offense has best game of the season. 34-24 loss is my gut.

    1. The original town that dreaded sundown tgats based on the moonlight murders in texarcana at the end of world war two
    2 the legend of boggy creek
    3 the entity from 1982 with Barbara hershey Based on a real account of a woman who said she had a encounter of a very intimate kind with a ghost the thing about this movie is that everyone likes the tina death scene from a nightmare on elm street but this movie did a scene like that almost exactly only it wasnt a death scene you should check it out if you can find it. It came out 2 years before a nightmare on elm street
    Also you were right about jaws being based on real events. Just wrong type of shark. The shark that was the culprit was a bull shark bull sharks are the only shark that can go from the ocean to fresh water and are much more aggressive then a great white or in fact any shark

It's always the most extremely unusual ones that get the attention though. Bundy, Dahmer, Gacy, Gein. Particularly, if their family is intricately connected, the person is relatively normal in appearance, they are able to hold a decent job, and specifically if they do interviews after the fact...then they'll likely be more famous. Timing too. Just a few months before Dahmer was caught is when Silence of the Lambs came out! Imagine that! A movie about a cannibal, and then a cannibal (Dahmer) is caught. Buffalo Bill even sort of dressed like Dahmer. If you watch the scene where Jodie Foster is at Buffalo Bill's house and doesn't realize at first who he is, Bill is dressed similar to how Dahmer dressed. Spooky persona too. That actor did a great job as Bill.

Most of these "ghostly", "exorsist" and etc events, minus the grounded events which is the real life killings, i dont belive one bit. Mostly is to tell stories to make money, thars all it is.

    Ed Gein is pronounced more like EE, like Geek but with an N instead of a K. I follow true crime and have read a lot about him. To my knowledge he also wasn't a cannibal, and you forgot about his religiously fanatic mother who famously called out the advice columnist, I don't remember if it was Dear Abby or Ann Landers but she really got nasty towards her. His mom thought women were pretty much wicked. And Gein was also the inspiration for Psycho. And that Fire in the Sky was busted just a year or two ago, right around the time he was on Rogan's pod, basically they made it all up and were trying to get out of having to pay back for work not finished on their forest contract. They're mom was a huge practical joker too and they saw the attention on TV that Barney and Betty Hill got when that couple were abducted. Regarding the Amityville thing, I still say Amityville II The Possession is WAY scarier and it's pretty much the DeFeo crime. Terrifying. I've always thought IT was like John Wayne Gacy! Scary clown. There's a good book called The Last Book on the Left, it has the letter that Gein's mom wrote to the advice columnist. 👍
