There’s a strange man living out in the woods and he’s coming to get you! At least, that’s what Hollywood what has us believe with films such as The Burning, Madman and even Candyman. Cropsey = the fictional weirdo hiding in the woods, a story told by kids all over the US to scare each other… but what if he really exists…?!

This is the a documentary that starts of discussing the myth before learning of the real life investigation of a series of missing kids in NY throughout the 80’s and the subsequent arrest and conviction of Andrew Rand. Could he be a real life Cropsey?

Join us and find out if this film is a trick…. or a treat!

Fans of Making A Murderer will enjoy this film.

You can watch Cropsey on either Netflix or Amazon prime.
