There is something macabre about most of my posts, whether it's a documentary about odd people, strange phenomena, campy and nostalgic TV shows, the horrors of mother nature, history, or a catastrophe.
In the spirit of Halloween I compiled the spookiest of my posts. I've dished out a bit of true crime, a bit of horror film dissection, and a touch of the supernatural. Queue
up your Netflix. This list will keep you occupied (and looking over your
shoulder) through All Hallows Eve.
Room 237
This documentary attempts to lay bare the hidden messages Stanley Kubrick left in his classic horror film The Shining. I recommend watching Room 237 and then take a crack at The Shining after. See if you can spot them all, or start your own Kubrick conspiracy theory!
VBS Meets... Issei Sagawa
An interview with a real cannibal who committed a heinous crime and is free and living in Japan... Be prepared for gruesome crime photos. 
Hunting for a Quality Ghost Show
This is the most viewed post on Consume+Consume. This is probably true because a lot of people are hunting for a quality ghost show by typing this very headline into Google. If you do reach this article in that manner, will your prayers be answered? Click to find out.
Nightmares in Red White and Blue
History as told by horror films. See how since the inception of motion pictures art has been imitating life on a deep psychological level.
Cropsey and H.H. Holmes: America's First Serial Killer
Two stunning tales of serial killers from different eras, I paired these two documentaries in a post deemed a "double feature." Cropsey not only discusses the nightmarish string of murders of defenseless mentally challenged children, but also the horrors of the mental health system in the 1970s. H.H. Holmes:America's First Serial Killer tells the tale of a well respected doctor who committed murder to a scale never before seen in the late 1800s. Whether you can stomach both at once is entirely up to you. 
Sweet dreams!
