So, I took myself to see a movie this week... Annabelle: Creation. Yes, I took myself. Yes, I truly enjoy seeing scary movies alone.

Well, we did miss her and wanted to know how this doll came to be...you know, evil. Well... Back in the 1970s, th[...]
Good morning, spooky people. Today I'd like to introduce you to two prominent figures in the paranormal community. You've probably already heard of them if you've sat through Poltergeist, The Amityville Horror, The Haunted, or The Haunting in Connecticut. You know all those times that you settle in for a good scare, and the opening sequence informs you that the movie you're about to watch is based on a true story?
