8 Horror Movies That Happened In Real Life
1. Orphan Inspires The Plot To Murder A Family
There's actually a surprising amount of cases that follow the themes of 2009 film Orphan. Based on a couple that brings an adopted older child into their family of four that plots on killing the biological family members, there's more than a few real-life scenarios that make the movie no less than terrifying.
In one tragic case, troubled 15-year-old Roksana Sikorski created a plot to kill her family that adopted her out of an abusive Polish agency. Much in the same way as the film, she lived with the two parents, their son, and their daughter - the first three being the targets for her murderous plan.
Together with her older boyfriend, she stabbed the son and then was supposed to move on to the parents, but was interrupted by the daughter witnessing the crime and screaming for help.
In the aftermath, the adoptive family have remained supportive of the teen and want her to get the help she needs. Whilst obviously injured, no one was actually killed, and Roksana was importantly always who she claimed to be, unlike the disguised protagonist of the counterpart movie. Overall, it's a much happier ending than Orphan's dark plot.
