10 Horror Movies You Didn't Know Were Based on Real World Stories & Folklore

"When it comes to iconic horror films, there are a number of natural and supernatural threats a host of characters might come into contact with. From maniacs in masks to zombie hordes, the genre has no shortage of monsters and mayhem. But as much as we enjoy original creations, sometimes we need look no farther than our own culture for cinematic scares. Though they aren't as common in the genre as we would like, horror films based in folklore and mythology can be just as scary as the monsters of the mind. Here we'll look at some of these terrifying titles that take inspiration from legends, lore, and history."
