Real Life Houses Playing Starring Roles in Movie and TV Nightmares!
Why does our mind play these fun little games with us – and usually when we are alone or trying to sleep!? Well, for me, I believe it is all of those glorious horror movies I watched growing up! Especially when a major contributor of the creep factor was the spooky house that the movie monster was running amok in. Every intricate staircase just waiting for that mystery hand to reach through, every home with windows that seemed like eyes staring out at you (yeah, you know the one), that closet that was a portal to another dimension, or when that mystery ball bounces down the stairs into the basement - that has you yelling at the fictional person on the screen, “WHAT?? ARE YOU CRAZY!? DON’T GO DOWN THERE YOU FOOL!”. These realistic home settings grab ahold of our imaginations and pull us in with the actors and give us that adrenaline jolt we crave.
Let’s take a few moments to stroll through the architecture of some real-life houses that play starring roles in our movie and tv nightmares.
