The Allagash Abductions

I blame Unsolved Mysteries for adding a heap of horror to my childhood.  It made darkness darker and noises at night terrifying.  It made strangers potential murderers and far-away airplanes UFOs.

The high-production value, the creepy musical scores, and Robert Stack all sealed the deal.

NO. I need to look that up.

That's very cool.

They did ghost stories so well.

It's all Robert Stack's fault. The perfect voice.

I was watching old episodes of Unsolved Mysteries today and telling my Mom the same thing. That damn music still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up!

Yup! Robert Stack made everything more terrifying! Especially aliens! Would be the scariest thing ever if he happened to run into Chris Hansen on To Catch A Predator!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!
