Woah 2001 was an awesome year for horror. Especially foreign horror and especially for super scary ghost stories. Creepy children with creepy puppets and creepy old ladies with creepy eyes. Creepy mean soldiers and creepy boys with creepy floating blood. Creepy jobs with creepy hidden mental patient recordings near creepy empty wheelchairs moving all creepy. Have a creepy good time.
