vintage

Special effects may be lacking, but vintage horror films still manage to keep our palms sweating and blood pumping; a look back at retro horror films, stories, books and characters that prove everything is scarier in black and white.

Ana Philaxis & The Chokers #1
The stench of cigarettes always reminded her of the best nights she'd been out and about. That and the smell of charcoal grills. You knew it was going to be a good time when you smell that. Smells like a night of debauchery and promise.

Top 10 Most Haunted Places in History
Everything is haunted. Or, at least, everything from a bygone era is filled with the specters of days past. That’s why we love exploring old places and learning about their history. Old buildings are almost always good for some spooky stories and legends. The problem with old buildings is that they’re usually no longer in use, so to get access to them you generally need to be visiting them as part of a tour or some other event.

Rosewood Horror Incident
The story is of my late grandmother who passed away several years ago. At the time as a young me just like many other children, I was also very keen on stories, especially horror and supernatural stories and I guess I should better say less about stories and more about real history and incidents of the past.

The Bad Seed (1956)
If, as Hillary Clinton once observed, it "takes a village to raise a child," then it must take an Act of God, in the form of a well-timed lightning bolt, to kill one.

Lily's Demons
“The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window.” The old mansion across our house had laid bare for almost 30 years now or so my family says. The land was filled with overgrown weeds with dust and cobwebs forming a thin layer covering the whole building. I remember the family that lived there, a cute couple and their little daughter, Lily. She had blue eyes and red hair, the type of red that made other kids call her ginger, but I didn't see her that way, I liked her. She was five, and I was a year older than her. We hung out with other kids our age and whenever we play house she would always be my wife. She had the most beautiful smile and an astonishing way with words, I admired her. She would tell us the most wonderful stories and the scariest ones too. One of them was called the haunting of Lakewood; she always started that one with her eyes open wide as she begins to tell the story, “There was a cabin in the woods, it had been abandoned for years, but one night a candle burned in the window….” She was only five but when she spoke we all listened. Until one day we heard she died in her sleep. I asked mom what had happened, but mom said she was gravely ill. I remember her parents moving out a month after her death, that was when rumors started to spread that the girl saw ghosts and that must've killed her, also that was the reason her parents left because that house was haunted. As people carried on with these beliefs, it didn't take time for bad things to start happening in our little town. Another kid died a few blocks away from mine, and another, and another. The deaths had the same pattern, they all had died in their sleep. Parents began to take their kids away in fear that they might just be next. And that was how we all left Havenston.

Rattles
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. It was not the first time this cabin had been occupied. Those passing through the area, vagrants, cowboys, or traveler would see this cabin, unoccupied and structurally sound, and occupy it for a night out of the elements. No one would blame them, but no one stopped them either, which was a shame from time to time.
