10 Horror Movie "Facts" That Aren’t Actually True – WhatCulture

The horror genre has created some of the most distinctive characters and striking imagery in the history of cinema. Frankenstein screaming "IT'S ALIVE!" as his Monster awakens. Dracula rising from his coffin. Leatherface brandishing his chainsaw. Even if you haven't seen these films, images like this have been drilled into the minds of every cinephile.

Despite these characters' legacy, there are a lot of misconceptions about their movies. Even though there have been ten Hellraiser films, everybody seems to get the main villain's name wrong. Dracula has appeared in over 150 films, making him the most recurring character in film and yet, moviegoers misremember the most basic things about the Count. We can all picture the scene of a bandaged mummy shuffling towards its victims, even though that never happened in the original Mummy movie.

It's hard to say why movie myths like this happen. Sometimes, it's because of the Mandela Effect, where we remember certain lines or moments incorrectly. Other times, we see a character or scene and associate it with the wrong movie.

Either way, we have to accept that there are some horror films we don't know well as we thought.
