The Television Ghost (1931-1933)

The Television Ghost was a “horror” television series that aired in New York from 1931 until 1933. The show consisted of an actor named George Kelting telling scary stories in closeup.

He Took His Skin Off For Me is another short horror film I’d recommend. It’s a simple, domestic love story about a man who takes his skin off for his girlfriend, and why it probably wasn’t the best idea. You can watch it here

Here is my masterpost of short creepy films

Pennywise from Stephen King’s film called It. The story revolves around a predator who has the ability to transform itself into its prey’s worst fears. It mostly takes the form of a sadistic, wisecracking clown called Pennywise the Dancing Clown. You can watch the film here

Artist Turns Adorable Teddy Bears into Creepy Zombies

English artist Phillip Blackman uses zombie-flick special effects makeup to turn the lovable toys into creepy undead that will keep you awake at night. He says the idea for his zombified teddy-bears was born from a silly joke between him and his partner. 

“She had a terrible cold at the time and we’d been talking about a gift for a friend’s baby. With a very stuffy nose ‘teddy-bear’ kept coming out as ‘deady-bear’, and we joked about zombie teddies that creep from under your bed at night to feast on your brains while you sleep,” the artist remembers.
