On part two of our True Crime Behind the film Scream, we examine the main inspiration for Kevin Williamson's original script for Scream, a group of grisly serial home invasion murders committed by Danny Rolling aka The Gainesville Ripper. We also touch briefly on Danny Rolling's favorite film, Exorcist III, and Danny's idol...Ted Bundy. Also, Mike speaks Spanish and Sal dresses up as Captain Crunch to go on a rampage about various current true crime topics. Just a heads up, this one gets into some graphic territory.

Happy Halloween! On this week's episode we open with a brief discussion on the Satanic Panic of the 1980's and the West Memphis Three, followed by the true crime behind the movie Black Circle Boys, the case of the Acid King, Ricky Kasso. We realized this was no dream, so we got into Rosemary's Baby. Our source material for The Black Cat was from the amazing new book Universal Studios Monsters: A Legacy of Horror by Michael Mallory. No episode on the occult would be complete without a mention of Aleister Crowley and Anton La Vey, who were the sources of inspiration for The Devil Rides Out and The Devil's Rain, two of our favorites. We also discuss The Mephisto Waltz, The House of the Devil, Satanic Panic, The Dinner Party, the horror-comedy The Babysitter, and get finish strong with the hidden symbolism in the one of the scariest films of the last decade, Hereditary!

We decided to put our True Crime Behind Scream Series on hold to get extra spooky for the Halloween season, so on this week’s episode, we are talking about witchcraft through the ages! We cover everything from the real life origin and history of witches, torture techniques and devices, and the most realistic to the scariest films about witches such as Häxan, Witchhammer, Witchfinder General, The Devils, Mark of the Devil, Black Sunday, The City of the Dead, Night of the Eagle, Season of the Witch, Witchcraft, the only Soviet-era horror movie - Viy, Suspiria, The Witches, The Craft, The Blair Witch Project, Lords of Salem,, The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Pyewacket, We Need to Do Something, The Wretched, Fear Street, The Old Ways, and our favorite…THE VVITCH! Happy Halloween!

This week we begin a new series on the True Crime Behind Scream. To make an example of the True Crime / Film crossover, we cover Ed Gein and a few films based on his life such as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Pyscho and The Silence of the Lambs. We examine the real life horror of the murder of Janett Christman (WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT), how her murder inspired the Babysitter and the Man Upstairs urban legend, the numerous other films inspired by this legend such as Black Christmas, Halloween, and When a Stranger Calls, and of course how this all ties into the opening scene of Scream. 

Freddy vs Jason…PLACE YOUR BETS! In this conclusion to our Friday the 13th Franchise, we cover Freddy and touch on some of the Nightmare on Elm Street Series, as well as Jason’s resurrection at his hands and their fight to the death in Freddy vs Jason. Then, we finish up with a discussion on the 2009 reboot. Smash through a window, partake in your favorite drugs, have some pre-marital sex, and get dead in this week’s episode!
