Based on a true story is a technique that many horror movies use to add that extra bit of terror to their movies. Ex. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. But anyone who is a fan of horror movies knows that while that movie is based on Ed Gein, there is no Texas family of cannibals out there. Nonetheless, based on true story will always be a great device to get an audience to listen. But what are the real stories that inspire these camp fire tales? And much like the case with Ed Gein, isn't the reality of it much more frightening? I guess that's what keeps us coming back to these stories. It's up to us individually to decide what scares us more... the tale or the true story. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/edi-gibson/support

If there was a formula to scary stories, curiosity is a main ingredient. It's in the curiosity where the unknown begins to show itself. But what appears in front of you may not be what you want. So be careful with what you ask to appear. Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/edi-gibson/support

In this episode, there are stories about both routines interrupted and rituals practiced. Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/edi-gibson/support

The most common fear might just be feeling as if you are being watched... especially when you believe you are completely alone! Stories like these are usually hardest to share since more often than not the people in your own life will tell you it's all in your head. That is... until they experience it also! And isn't it ironic, that we are not alone in the fear of never really being alone! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/edi-gibson/support
