Ever wondered how people get those realistic screams on children's shows? Well, let's just say not all of them are animated...
In 1984, children's nightly program, "Nighttime Lullaby", was a big hit. Mothers and fathers would use this cheaply made television show to help their children to sleep by softly playing the show's music...until the 19th episode aired.
Parents complained after watching g this video, that it was "dark and inappropriate. As well as "Satan-like and demonic."
Why? During the credit scene, a black screen would show the editors and producers of the film, but every time a new name was shown, a terrified, bone-chilling scream from a child would interrupt, then return to the same lullaby as before, until another name would pop up. Each and every name would be followed by another, different scream from a child.
This episode only aired for about an hour before it was taken down, but it didn't erase from the parents' or childrens' minds as fast.
Parents would call the company and report that their kids wouldn't sleep, but instead, just bounce up and down and in their crib... Laughing...
The company didn't do anything and just hoped that the calls would go away. Of course, they didn't. In fact they got more and more each day. Some parents even called in tears saying that it had killed their children.
After sewing the company who was deemed responsible, nobody had heard of it again. The majority of the parents whose sons and daughters were killed by the show, had killed themselves, or have refused to talk about it to anyone.
People carried a pirated copy of the video, that was secretly recorded, on the Internet. People who watched it reported to constantly become sleepless with insomnia and tend to have major personality changes. That video is still up and running, even.
