Some scary movies based on truth?
most scary movies are fictional...aliens or monsters or people that rise from the dead. But some scary movies are very realistic...murders and stuff. The only scary movie that are based on the truth are ones that are based on true stories "based on true events" and even then they stretch the truth A LOT to make the movie more interesting!!
