Some great horror movies are based on real events.
While true stories are generally the realm of prestigious drama movies, some have also served as the inspiration for a surprising number of iconic horror movies. Cinema has been obsessed with dramatizations of real events since the earliest days of the medium. But in the cases of most, their real-life connections are made plain in the movies themselves.
10 Final Destination Each Final Destination installment follows the similar premise of a group of people who, following a premonition, manage to escape death in a random disaster, only for death to come for them in gruesome and elaborate ways. While the plot device leads to some absurd deaths, franchise creator Jeffrey Reddick explains that the idea for the original film was based on a real news story.
8 The Conjuring While many aspects of the plot are embellished for dramatic effect, the 2013 haunted house film The Conjuring is based on the true accounts of Ed and Lorraine Warren’s investigation of a haunted farmhouse in Rhode Island. The real Warrens’ accounts of levitating furniture, smells of rotting flesh, and attempts to communicate with the spirits are all represented in the film . Lorraine Warren even consulted on the production.
4 A Nightmare On Elm Street Much like Scream, A Nightmare on Elm Street is a Wes Craven franchise that originated with a chilling true story. Craven reports reading a news article about a Cambodian refugee who died in the middle of the night after trying not to sleep for days. Apparently, the boy had told his parents that something was waiting to chase and kill him in his sleep. This article, and others like it, inspired Craven to make a film about a monster who kills people in their dreams.
