Still Screaming: The True Story Behind The Scream Films
We all know the story of the Scream franchise: killer stalks teens, massacre ensues, shocking twist reveals an unexpected twist hiding behind the Ghostface mask. There is no doubt that Wes Craven's 1996 masterpiece reinvented the slasher genre, taking the industry away from the silent Jasons and Michaels and more toward the smart-talking Freddy. You may think that Ghostface butchering Drew Barrymore, then carving his way through a bunch of sexy teens may all be fiction, but the terrifying story of the "Gainesville Ripper" is the real truth behind the Woodsboro massacre.

Scream Teens: Ranking The Best Characters From Wes Craven's Scream Franchise
On December 20, 1996, Wes Craven's slasher reinvention Scream opened to mixed success. 20 years later, the original has gone on to be a cult favorite, while the three sequel films spanned the next 15 years as we kept coming back for more of the gore -- but the story doesn't end there. MTV then picked up its own TV series of the idea in 2015, which continues with a third season in 2017. That is two decades of body counts and filleted actors to wade through!
