In 1976, every home movie developed by Wally Splice contained the same extra man.

At first, he stood across the street. After the next cut, he was on the porch. Then he was inside the house.

When Norine Rumm's husband disappears from his own birthday film, she uncovers the rule behind Wally's movements: he cannot move while the camera is recording. He only moves in the darkness between shots.

Norine enters his shop carrying an eleven-minute reel and refuses to stop filming. But every reel eventually ends.

This fictional analog-horror story explores cursed film, disappearing memories, and the terrifying possibility that the most dangerous part of a recording is the moment the picture turns black.

Lars Mil looked like the greatest footballer Norway had ever produced—but across 86 matches, every shot missed exactly 13 inches to the right.

The misses were deliberate.

When Lars was nine, his first successful goal caused his younger brother Milo to disappear. The ball returned carrying four carved words: "One in, one out." Lars realized that scoring again could bring Milo home, but only by sending someone else in his place.

For 12 years, Lars protected every goalkeeper by pretending to be a failure. Then his coach secretly moved the goal.

This fictional supernatural sports-horror story follows a cursed footballer, an impossible championship, and the terrible price of bringing someone back.

Chuck Tender was the towering butcher behind Last Chance Meats, a tiny shop in Maro Creek, Ohio, where every customer got photographed before being asked the same question: rare, medium, or well done.

Then those customers stopped coming back.

When a traveling salesman named Glenn Crumb vanished, his wife found something horrifying in Chuck's front window — a white package labeled with Glenn's name, and something inside it was still breathing. What police found next was worse: rows of living people wrapped upright in butcher paper, a freezer full of Polaroids, and evidence that Chuck Tender's crimes may have stretched far beyond ordinary time.

This fictional surreal horror episode explores ritual, dehumanization, impossible spaces, and the terrifying idea that some predators do not hunt in the dark — they simply wait behind the counter and ask the same polite question every time.

Chip Toothacre was one of the most charming men in his small Georgia town. Women trusted him, neighbors admired him, and his habit of collecting locks of hair was dismissed as romantic.

Then women began disappearing.

Even after another man was arrested, the disappearances continued. It was not until Sue Rummage followed Chip home that the truth began to surface: a hidden cellar, jars containing hundreds of human teeth, and a garden holding the remains of women the town had spent years searching for.

But before police could arrest him, Chip vanished.

This fictional Southern Gothic horror story explores charm as camouflage, obsession disguised as affection, and the terrifying possibility that the real monster may be the person everyone trusts.

In this fictional horror story, Vera Bain was the most admired beauty queen in Fair Hope, Alabama — stunning, charming, and seemingly impossible to suspect.

But during the nine years she held her crown, 14 women in her immediate circle disappeared.

No one connected the pattern until 1976, when Detective May Day began cross-referencing the missing persons reports and noticed that every disappearance happened shortly after a woman got too close to Vera's inner circle. What he found when he entered Vera's property changed everything.

This is the story of beauty, obsession, jealousy, and a woman who claimed she simply did not like competition.

A billionaire promised the elite a paradise beneath the ocean — a secret city called Atlantis, hidden from the world and accessible only by submarine.

For $1 million, residents could buy their way in. But once they entered, they were told they could never leave.

What started as the ultimate luxury experiment slowly became something darker: strict rules, total control, and a glass barrier standing between wealth and death. Then one crack appeared… and Noah Lot made the fatal mistake of believing he could ignore it.

This fictional horror legend follows the rise and collapse of an underwater city that was never meant to be found — until a crew searching for the Titanic allegedly discovered something impossible on the ocean floor.

In the late 1980s, a paralyzed, mute man named Karaoke ran a movie rental store in Center City, Tennessee. Locals said he kept unreleased films in a back room. If you asked to see them, he'd show you. But the back room wasn't a room — it was an endless maze of identical hallways that shouldn't have existed. People who went in never came out. When a journalist investigating the disappearances went inside himself, he got lost for hours before spotting Karaoke at the end of a corridor. Something was wrong. Karaoke charged at him. The journalist was never seen again.

Was Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th really based on a real-life camp killer? The truth is darker — and more complicated.

In this episode, we look at the haunting 1977 Camp Scott tragedy in Oklahoma, where three young Girl Scouts were murdered on their first night at a remote summer camp. The case shocked the country, led to one of the most disturbing investigations in American true crime history, and remains officially unresolved.

But this is not just a story about a horror movie rumor. It is about why secluded camps, dark woods, missing footsteps, and unsolved crimes became part of America's nightmare language. Jason may be fiction, but the fear behind him was very real.

This episode separates internet myth from true crime reality — and asks why some stories feel too terrifying to stay in the past.

In the 1960s, Jasper Noodleman ran a funeral home in Goobersville, Indiana. The whole town loved him. But behind closed doors, he had a routine — invite customers to try out a coffin, slam it shut, lock it, and roll them straight into the incinerator. No body, no evidence. He did this for years. Then an elderly couple walked in. Their son had been one of his victims. They asked Jasper to get inside a casket so they could see what it looked like. He climbed in. They locked it. He never came out.

Hugh Mongus killed over 100 people with his thumb. He escaped a maximum security prison by flushing himself down a toilet and crawling through miles of sewage. 67 days later, he was caught trying to get a job at the same prison. They sent him to Filigan's Island — the most secure facility on Earth — and locked him in the basement. Then a tsunami buried the whole prison under the ocean for five years. When it resurfaced, investigators found every body inside. Every single one. Except Hugh's. His cell was still locked. He was gone.
