  Even the murder in Jennifer&apos;s Body was based on the real life murder of a teenage girl.

  My husband went to school with the kids from TWA Flight 800 and he still can&apos;t bring himself to watch Final Destination.

  I know it was brief, but your covering of Natalia&apos;s story is a bit out dated. The Mann&apos;s ended up abusing her as well, but she&apos;s now in a safe home and the courts changed her age back. Also, the Barnett&apos;s got her her own apartment and then abandoned her. She didn&apos;t even know they moved out of state. It&apos;s such a tragic story.

  another case you didn&apos;t mention in the video, the second most popular J-horror ——The Grudge series also had a very disturbing origin. In 1988, Nagoya, Japan. A pregnant woman named Mitsuko murdered by someone. The killer strangled the poor soon-to-be mother to death, then after killing her, the culprit cut open her belly and took the baby out, then they stuff a house phone receiver and a key chain back instead. And the most mysterious part is, the reason why killer cuts open Mitsuko is to save her baby, because since the mother was already dead, the baby inside her womb would also suffocated. So in order to save the baby, the killer sliced open Mitsuko and took the baby out. As matter of fact, because of this action, the baby actually survived the tragedy and grew up. They never caught the killer though.

  Not only did the Gainesville ripper “try” to clean up, he put his victims on display to be found in brutalized ways. That case haunts me, especially what he did to poor Christa.

  Here&apos;s another one for you. When a Stranger Calls is based on the cold case of Janet Christman in 1950.

  The story of Orphan First Kill is almost exactly the story from a documentary called The Imposter about the disappearance of Nicholas Barclay and the European con man who claimed to be him years later. One of the major things about the case is that it was pretty obvious that the imposter, named Frederic Bourdin, wasn&apos;t Nicholas due to obvious appearance differences. They think that the family accepted him in as Nicholas because they were the ones that killed Nicholas in the first place and they couldn&apos;t just automatically say that wasn&apos;t him

  Those people who abandoned that little girl deserve life in prison. Idgaf. You do not do that to a child especially one with disabilities

  The Mann&apos;s family only adopted her for clout and a documentary crew had to basically rescue Natalia from them and their cult like church. That poor girl has been so used and abused. Such a shame. Really thought she found her people with the Mann&apos;s family
