8 horror movies that were inspired by real events which won’t let you sleep at night

8.THE HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT SERIES:

                This two part series is based on the the Snedeker house, which was a former funeral house and later possessed by bad spirits. Even though the second part lacked clarity, the first part is a good pick as this movie is closely related to the real life occurrences.

7.THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR/AVAL:

                The only Indian horror movie in this list, the house next door, is a movie based on a true story, as the lead actor and the director reveal it was based on the incidents that happened to their friend and the film will not disappoint the horror movie lovers.

6.THE EXORCIST:

                Even though it is a film released in 1973, this movie still excites even the present day audiences. The demon Pazuzu that possesses the girl Regan MacNeil is horrifying for a current day horror movie lover to watch and the movie is equally captivating as the book from which the movie was inspired.

5.THE NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET:

                Nobody can forget Freddy Krueger from this movie, as the character is terrifying and disturbing to watch. Even though the idea that the victims are killed in their dreams is contrary to reality, the creativity of the director stands out. In a nut shell, this is a movie that will give you bone chilling nightmares.

4.TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE:

                Leatherface is creepy and there is no doubt about that. Even though the film was marked as based on a true story, it is a fictional marvel. The character is being recreated again in other movies and Ed Gein used to wear skins of the victims and used to stitch the furniture with human skin, and this would leave anyone petrified.

3.THE AMITYVILLE HORROR SERIES:

                This series of multiple films revolves around the story of Ronald Joseph who killed his entire family with a rifle. The 2005 film stands out as the best one, with the roots based on the novel by Jay Anson. The movie is beyond expectations and weak hearted people should stay away from this.

2.THE CONJURING:

                The film is based on the infamous Ed and Lorraine Warren’s famous case of the Perron family being haunted by the spirit of Bathsheba, the evil witch. This commercially successful film is terrifying with perfect visuals and scary images of the witch are a perfect treat for an afternoon show, but not a night time watch.

1.THE ENFIELD POLTERGEIST:

                Janet is possessed by a dead man, who is controlled by a demon named Valak. This happens to be the top pick in the list as the second part of the conjuring is as scary as the first one. With a lot of contradictory reviews as what is real and what is not, many have tried to solve the case and provide facts and Janet Hodgson still says that the Poltergeist will always will be with her.
