Do Not Come In.

Hey! So before I begin I got this information from Vsauce my favorite science youtuber! He’s great, you’ll learn a lot from him, I know I did.

So anyway, there are 3 types of fears as examined by Stephen Kind

1) Gross-out: so gore, disease, nasty things

2) Horror: unnautural things, like a giant spider

3) Terror: when somethings creepy

What makes something creepy is ambiguity

For example masks. It masks facial expression, you don’t know how that other person is feeling. Are they a threat? Or are they nice? You just don’t know. 

Francis T Mcandrew and Sara S. Koehnke described being creeped out as an ambiguity of threats from others. (click on the pictures to enlarge)

Creepy things maybe a threat, but they are also kind of not. Like a teddy bear with a full set of human teeth. So our brains just don’t know what to do. 

So instead of carrying out a typical fear response, we just feel uneasy.

Anyway, I got the information from here as said before: X

One of my favorite mysteries. 

In 1994 Gloria Ramirez was admitted to the emergency room suffering the effects of cervical cancer. Ramirez was in a state of confusion and experiencing respiratory and cardiac distress. Going into cardiac arrest, workers attempted to defibrillate her heart.

At that point several people saw an oily sheen covering Ramirez’s body, and some noticed a fruity, garlic-like odor that they thought was coming from her mouth. A registered nurse…attempted to draw blood from Ramirez’s arm, and noticed an ammonia like smell coming from the tube. She passed the syringe to Julie Gorchynski, a medical resident who noticed manila-colored particles floating in the blood.

After drawing blood, three staff members treating Ramirez lost consciousness. The emergency room was then ordered evacuated while a skeleton crew stayed behind to treat Ramirez. 45 minutes later, Ramirez was pronounced dead from kidney failure. California Department of Health and Human Services investigated the incident, interviewing all 34 staff. About 10 workers claimed to have been affected, the most serious of which experienced shortness of breath, muscle spasms, and loss of consciousness. All affected workers produced normal blood tests.

One worker spent two weeks in the intensive care unit due to breathing problems, hepatitis, avascular necrosis of the knees, all of which were developed after the incident.

There are many theories as to confirm what happened ranging from the DMSO theory (a chemical used to treat cancer parents) to something as radical as a meth lab.

Movie Review: Apollo 18 (2011)

Title: Apollo 18

Release Date: September 2, 2011

Director: Gonzalo López-Gallego

Run Time: 86 Minutes

Quick Hits: Two years after the Apollo 17 mission, three astronauts are sent back to the moon under the guise of a satellite launch to place monitoring equipment on its surface.  Upon arriving the astronauts find a Russian lander and evidence of the reason that we never went back.

Review: Apollo 18 is another "found footage" style horror film that is set in 1974 in which a group of astronauts are sent to the moon on a top secret mission to place sensors on its surface during the height of the Cold War.  The mission goes to plan until the astronauts come across a Russian lander that seems to be deserted and covered in blood.  Upon further inspection of the surrounding area they find a dead cosmonaut in a crater with his helmet removed and a rip in his suit.  The astronauts proceed back to their own lander where all hell breaks loose.  One astronaut on an "unplanned" moon walk heads out to pick up a motion camera that has apparently fallen down; while on this walk he complains of something moving in his suit.  Upon returning to the lander we see that he is bleeding; after further inspection of the wound, they pull what appears to simply be a moon rock out of his body.  Over the next several hours the wounded astronaut becomes infected and enters into psychosis. The movie ends with the two astronauts trying to flee the surface of the moon, against the orders of the U.S. government, while being attacked by strange rock spider beings that were apparently there the whole time, which also killed the cosmonaut they found earlier,unsuccessfully.

Well if you aren't a little confused after reading all that I applaud you.  The concept of the entire movie was that this "footage" was leaked to the net and shows a real lunar landing; that much is obvious, along with every jump scare that is in this whole movie.  The great thing about found footage movies is that you never really know why, or sometimes what, the "evil entity" is nor what it actually wants.  Everything in this movie is telegraphed at least five minutes before it is going to happen and that is where it really lacks in substance.  Granted many people say that it seems vaguely "believable" in that it was shot in such a way that you truly feel sorry for those involved (i.e. the little boy who will never see his father again), but that is also where it loses you.  The only redeeming quality that I can take away from this movie was that it had a slight Alien (1979) feel to it. You never saw, clearly that is, just what was attacking the two astronauts while they were on the moon till the very end at which point it is too late to save themselves, or the movies for that matter.  If you have an hour and twenty minutes to kill where you aren't going to pay much attention to it anyway go ahead and put this movie on.

Overall Rating: 2/5

A creepy story I received, one of the best so far. My mouth literally fell open as I read the last line.
