10 Internet Horror Stories That Should Be Movies

3. The Quiet Neighbour

Bud Filimore is, quite possibly, the kind of neighbour that nightmares are made of. Pippinacious' story explains how Filimore, despite only being in the area for some time, has already carved out a seriously infamous reputation, especially towards the local children. One resident says how they have seen him screeching at them in the past, whilst another is certain he had tried to hit run one down whilst in his car.

The story kicks off with the author, Liz, and her brother tossing around a baseball in their garden until it lands in Filimore's next door. It's an opening to a typical Disney film rather than a horror story, but things soon take a strange turn when rumours about Filimore's wife start to swirl around the town. According to certain residents, the old wife could sometimes be seen stood as a silhouette on one of the house's windows, standing motionless and just watching the world outside.

It's definitely a creepy, unsettling image on its own, but the tale of Mr. and Mrs. Filimore is one of the most jarring and suspenseful tales on the internet right now, and it would be great seeing this strange tale taken onto the big screen.
