October: The spookiest month of the year leading up to the 31st. Before that horrifying date falls, the weeks leading up to Halloween are usually filled with haunted attractions, costume planning and, of course, horror movie marathons. For many, a scary movie is just that: a movie. However, the next ten are unique in that the events surrounding the films' making and their backstory are more chilling than anything on screen.

3 - Ghostbusters :

The acclaimed 1984 comedy classic "Ghostbusters" had some creepy events on set, one of which even appeared in the movie. Especially the now-famous scene where Dan Aykroyd confronts a ghost, causing his cigarette to fall out of his mouth but miraculously stop on his lower lip, reportedly spontaneous, with no special effects or stickiness mixture. Although one could reasonably argue that saliva plays a big role. According to Aykroyd, there was no skill in holding the cigarette in place, saying: "That's the comedian moment when God is with you. I had [the cigarette] in there and I looked at it. They got it. Chances. No glue, no tape, no glycerin." Of course, there must be a reasonable explanation. To this day, however, Aykroyd has maintained his position, ensuring that no skill or saliva is to blame for the one-shot shot. It sounds lazy, but you are the judge.

2- The Innkeeper :

Ti West low-finances mystery The Innkeepers (2011) tells the story of younger inn clerks on the Yankee Pedlar Inn who got down to show that their area of employment is certainly haunted. As good fortune might have it, the inn that stimulated the movie become shot on the real Yankee Pedlar Inn in Torrington, Connecticut, that's stated to be a actual haunted location. During filming, the solid and team skilled baffling supernatural things.Director West—a self-proclaimed skeptic—become petrified to witness doorways slamming on their own, TVs turning on and rancid via way of means of themselves, and new lighting fixtures constantly burning out inexplicably. Even greater weird is that everybody at the set had very vibrant goals each unmarried night. Actress Sara Paxton said that she might continuously awaken within side the midnight questioning a person become in her room with her. Following numerous days farfar from the set and a respite from the paranormal, West defined how the goals got here flooding again upon his return: “Being a skeptic, I generally tend to now no longer consider it as much,” stated the director. “The goals got here again the primary day I walked in. The vibe become there.

1- Candyman :

The 1992 Candyman film about the ghost of a lynched slave with a hook for a hand terrified audiences across the nation and abroad. There is one scene in particular that is truly haunting, given that it was taken from actual events five years prior to the film’s release. In the movie, two women investigating one of Candyman’s crime scenes discover that the murderous phantom entered the victim’s apartment through the medicine cabinet.Such was the case for 52-year-old Ruthie Mae McCoy, who was brutally murdered in her apartment in 1987. The murderers were able to gain access to McCoy’s apartment by crawling through an opening behind the bathroom’s mirror, as seen in the movie. There are several other elements taken from McCoy’s killing, such as the fact that Candyman also takes place in Chicago public housing. In addition, one of the characters in the film bears a familiar name to the real-life victim: Anne-Marie McCoy.
