10 Terrifying Photos of Vintage Halloween Costumes

Are these Slipknot’s childhood pics? Nope, just some early 1900’s folk who thought it’d be funny to make us wish we had a clean set of underwear right now.

16-year-old Skylar Neese (right in first photo) had a 4.0 GPA, a part-time job at Wendy’s and an active social life. Her two best friends were Rachel Shoaf (middle in first photo) and Shelia Eddy (left in first photo). They all attended University High School in Morgantown, West Virginia, and “you barely ever saw one of them by themselves,” according to another friend. Skylar had been friends with Shelia since they were young children but the duo became a trio in high school when they met Rachel. Skylar’s father said that Skylar’s two friends “walked in when they came here” and that they “didn’t even knock.” That’s how close the girls were; their parents considered them family.

One night during a sleepover, Skylar witnessed Rachel and Shelia have sex. Feeling as though Skylar was “in the way” of their relationship and fearing that it would become public knowledge, they decided they would kill Skylar. On the 6th of July, 2012, Skylar disappeared. She had come home from work and was last seen on surveillance footage climbing from her bedroom window. When she didn’t return that night or show up for work the following day, her parents called the police and a six-month long search ensued - all the while Rachel and Shelia rallied around the investigation, acting as the grieving best friends. They even posted several selfies with Skylar on social media and begged for her safe return knowing all to well that she wouldn’t be returning home…

On the 16th of January, 2013, Rachel confessed that she and Shelia had murdered Skylar. They had been questioned several times by investigators and eventually, she confessed. She led investigators to Skylar’s body along a rural road in Wayne Township. She had been brutally stabbed to death. Rachel confessed that she and Shelia had picked up Skylar in Shiila’s car and drove to Pennsylvania. They had brought along two knives which they had wrapped up in towels. As the trio sat and chatted, Rachel and Shelia counted down to three and then started to violently stab Skylar. She was stabbed in the neck and back. She had attempted to break free but couldn’t get away.

Rachel and Shelia had brought along a shovel and had planned on burying Skylar’s body. The duo were not strong enough to break the ground so they dragged her lifeless body 15 feet from the road and hid her under tree branches where she remained unfound for six months. Before Skylar died, she uttered the words “why?” When Rachel confessed to the murder, she claimed “they didn’t want to be friends with Skylar anymore.”

Shelia Eddy pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison. She will be eligible for parole after 15 years. Rachel Shoaf pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 10 to 30 years. When Rachel apologised to Skylar’s family during her sentencing phase, her father replied: “You can never say you’re sorry to me or my wife, because you’re not. There will never be closure for us as far as you two are concerned. You defied our trust. We treated you with Skylar’s life and this is how you treat us.”

Mary and David Neese, Skylar’s parents, continue to share her story in the hopes that Skylar’s Law expands to other states. Skylar’s Law is a West Virginia addition to the Amber Alert in which the Amber Alert coordinator determines whether an Amber Alert should be issued or not as opposed to law enforcement agencies. When Skylar disappeared, law enforcement did not believe she was in danger and therefore no Amber Alert was issued.

Momma and Me and the Devil Makes Three

People always tell stories about women who give birth to Satan’s baby. But do they ever ask what it’s like to be that kid? Yeah… that’s me. My dad is literally the devil. It’s cool, I guess.

My mother was a virginal and devout Christian girl when she got pregnant with me. She knew Satan was the father, but she still refused to have an abortion. So after I was born, all she could do was try to hide my more demonic features. But that never worked. The others knew I was different in strange, unseen ways.

Children of the Belfar Tunnel

The abandoned Belfar Tunnel is renowned for its peculiar phenomenon of child-like specters that fade in and out of physical existence. Cases of these tunnel sightings date as far back as 1936, when the tunnel was constructed as an air-raid shelter.

The children are devoid of any facial features, except for a toothless mouth that extends to exaggerated proportions. They emit a low growling sound and can induce dizziness and paranoia.
