10 unbelievable behind the scene photos from classic horror films

4. Child’s Play (1988) 

Chucky was the doll who became a much-feared household name when he appeared in Child’s Play. His full name is Charles Lee Ray, named after killers Charles Manson, Lee Harvey Oswald, and James Earl Ray. The use of a doll as the main character in a horror movie lead to many angry protests from parents. Many believed Chucky would encourage children to become violent.

There was an incident in Manchester where a gang had kidnapped and murdered a 16-year-old girl. She was forced to listen to recordings of the gang leader shouting, “I’m Chucky, wanna play?” Despite this evidence, director Tom Holland stated that audience members can only be influenced by horror movies if they were unbalanced to begin with.
