My friend Sarah tells a story of how, when she was very young, her mean siblings made her cry by telling her that a house in her neighborhood was the one from ‘The Amityville Horror,’ and that, by extension, they lived near the ghosts. At first, I giggled at this story, then I remembered how creepy I found that film, and how terrifying it would have been, and I stop laughing. Imagine if the cabin from ‘The Evil Dead’ were in your backyard? Or the Bates Motel? Or, heck, the entire village of Jerusalem’s Lot, leading us to today’s hainted query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) accidentally discovered a terrifying ghost in ‘Grand Theft Auto V’, and now I won’t climb the mountains anymore, asking: What’s the scariest locale in all of pop culture?

That whatever you want to call it where they end up in Event Horizon.
Silent Hill, the whole damn town of Silent Hill.
The Overlook Hotel, Colorado Rockies, USA.
To this day, if I’m staying in any hotel late at night, I still hesitate before turning corners, lest I run into twins (the not nice kind).
