My grandma had an old book in her attic called "more tales to tremble by" I can't remember if it was one or many authors but one tale in particular gave me nightmares. It was called "Thurnley Abby". Very much like the last story you mentioned. Another in the book was about a couple who moved into a new (to them) house. The husband worked nights and the woman began hearing a baby cry at night. She swallowed her fear after weeks of hearing the baby and followed the sounds to the attic stairs but couldn't bring herself to go any further. Telling her husband the next day, they both went up into the attic. They found a roughly patched part of wall and after breaking it open, the tiny skeleton of an infant....chilling....

It used to be my favorite story as a kid-

At my school they read the green ribbon to every grade, including kindergartner. Goosebumps is a recommendation as well. And, scary stories to tell in the dark was read by me and most of my class, the whole series. Coralline is one of my classes favorite movies. What can I say, those are some pretty good books. :)

The little match girl was interesting to me as a child. I was sad that she died but happy that she was with her loved ones and no longer struggling to sell matches on the cold and harsh streets

I remember seeing something of a parody of the story in a "Dennis The Menace" comic book, in which Dennis meets the "little match girl." As in the original story, everytime the girl lights one of her matches, she sees visions of a better life (a room warmed by a fireplace, another room with warm clothes, another one with a table bearing food, etc), but eventually, she uses up all her matches, and now, she thinks she's doomed to freeze to death. Now, here's a new spin on this old tale. A boy comes along dressed in Arabian clothes, and Dennis tells him about the little girl's plight. The boy happens to be carrying an Arabian lamp, which he rubs, causing a Genii to appear. Dennis realizes that the boy is none other than ALADDIN himself! At Aladdin's request, the Genii provides everything the girl needs. He sets her, Aladdin, and Dennis up in a cozy room, complete with a roaring fireplace, a table with all kinds of delicious food (which the girl and her new friends enjoy), and a rack of new, warm clothes, which the girl gratefully puts on. After all this, Dennis tells the match girl that he once heard a story about a young lady just like her, that she used up all her matches, and then, "she froze stiff." This makes the girl even happier that she met such nice people as Dennis and Aladdin.

I remember I used to read that book sometimes growing up because we had it in our bookshelf for some reason. I don't know who bought it or where it is now, but the message of the story I think is supposed to be that it's important to look out for others, show kindness to others, and treat others how you would want to be treat. Like if you find someone homeless and hungry on the streets you offer them food or if they are cold or don't have shoes you offer to buy them or bring them clothes or give them money. I think that's the message of the story. It's terribly sad but an important message.

13:13 Why did I just now realize that was Melanie Martinez??😅😂

As a senior, I have a lot of memories of children's books that were really scary, but I loved them - especially Hilaire Belloc. He didn't just write about a kid who died from always slamming doors, but there was 'Matilda' who cried wolf so many times no-one believed her when she said her house was burning down, so she burned to death. Or 'Jim', who wandered away from his Nanny at the zoo, so naturally was eaten bit by bit by a lion, which the book describes in slow, excruciating detail. Maybe I enjoyed these books because back then kids got used to our parents overstating things. For example, my Dad didn't just ask us to pick up our toys - he'd say that if we didn't, Grandma would not see them and trip and fall and die and there would be a black cloud hanging over our heads for the rest of our lives. I'm not kidding. No doubt that is why so many of us are nervous, uptight adults.

I had a book that was just two pages. It's called, "The the blood rain." And seeing the title, it's pretty disturbing. I'm just gonna write down the whole story and it's exact words. One night, a little newborn girl was born in a local hospital. Her name was Olivia. As she grew up, she wondered how a storm would look like. She curiously stepped out of the front door, and looked around the village. She waited, and waited, and waited. She quickly shouted, "Rain! Rain! Oh please come down!" She waited. And waited. And waited. Nothing. She sat down and thought to herself, she'd never see a storm. She cried, and while wiping tears, her eyes had an extreme pain. She looked down at her cheek, and saw blood streaming down it. Despite the obscure pain, she kept rubbing her eyes, even when she stopped crying. At this point, she was bleeding at an alarming rate. But she did not care. She started to levitate. She kept on rubbing her eyes while feeling a butterfly sensation in her stomach. She kept rubbing her eyes no matter what. She was bleeding so much that when she bent down, drops of blood went falling as fast as a storm, and that was the only time she'd see a storm. She swallowed her blood, licking her lips, and smiled. The only reason why she was levitating, was because she was going to heaven. She realised she was already dead, and the only time she saw a storm, was when she died. Remember kids, don't expect storms in any time, because you might see one in your end. That was a stupid moral.

The little mermaid story in the horrible version was my favorite as a kid, it even has a movie, i remember how i cried when she died, i watched it thousand of times

My teacher in elementary school read one of "the scary stories to tell in the dark" to the entire class on Halloween month and it gave all of us chills. And I remember almost every detail about the stories. This is the story from what I remember: It is about a guy who gets invited to a party at a supposed haunted mansion that his friend to have fun. And when the guy goes to the party he has a good time at first but then needs to use the restroom which is downstairs in the basement. As he makes his way to take the stares he notices some people entering a elevator together and he notices a person with a creepy smile spotted him. The creepy man ask the guy if he wants to come on the elevator with them to go down but the guy refuses, and the creepy person keeps persisting for the guy to get on the elevator with them bit the guy keeps refusing. Eventually the Creepy guy stopped persisting and just press the elevator button to go down with everyone else while waiving goodbye as he continues to smile at the guy while the doors close. And so the guy walks down the stairs and he has a long way down since the house has multiple basement do to it being a abandoned wine seller house. But as he goes down he heard the sound of the elevator going down through the thin walls but the elevator wasn't going down slowly. The elevator was actually falling down incredibly fast and everyone in there was screaming in fear all the way down until the last thing the guy heard was the sound of a giant crash at the bottom. The guy then immediately bolted back upstairs and left the party in a panic, but as he was running he saw the same creepy guy bringing more people into the elevator with him and the creepy guy spotted him again and just waved a friendly goodbye as the guy continues to run away. The guy then realized that if he did go on that elevator with the creepy person along with everyone else he too would have entered the same fate as all those other people did.

That story reminds of an almost similar tale that author Bennett Cerf related in his 1944 book called "Famous Ghost Stories." I've never seen the book myself (especially since it's out of print now), but I read about it in the book "'The Twilight Zone' Treasury." (I'll explain later.) Anyway, this story is about a young lady from New York City who goes to visit some distant relatives who live in an old antebellum mansion in the South. On two consecutive nights, just as she's about to go to bed, the lady looks out of her window and sees an old-fashioned horse-drawn coach, which pulls up and stops just below the window. The driver of the coach, who's a rather scary looking fellow, jumps to the ground, points a finger at the woman, and says "There's room for one more." This frightens the girl so much, that she decides to cut her visit short, packs her bags, and rushes back to New York. However, she can't get what happened to her down South out of her mind, so she goes to see a psychiatrist, who convinces her that what she saw was just her imagination. Accepting this diagnosis, the lady leaves the psychiatrist's office and is about to board an elevator to go down to the first floor of the medical building, when she hears a familiar voice say "There's room for one more." She realizes that it was the elevator operator who said it, and that he looks exactly like the strange coachman! Terrified, she backs away, refusing to get on the elevator, which leaves without her. Suddenly, the cables working the elevator break, causing it to fall all the way to the ground floor and crash, killing everyone aboard it! Now, here's the "Twilight Zone" connection. There was an episode of that show with a plot that was loosely based on the story I mentioned above. In this tale, entitled "Twenty-Two," a woman (played by Barbara Nicolas) who's a nightclub dancer is in a hospital, where she's trying to recover from a nervous breakdown she suffered, as a result of doing too many shows in a short period of time. But she's not getting much rest or sleep because she keeps having a vision where she follows a strange-looking nurse down to the hospital basement, to Room 22, which happens to be the MORGUE, at which point, the nurse (who's rather beautiful, but in a disturbing way) looks at her, smiles in a sinister manner, and says "Room for one more, honey." The girl patient then screams and runs back to her hospital room. She relates her vision to her boyfriend and her doctor (played by Jonathan Harris, who also played Dr. Zachary Smith on the 1960s sci-fi TV series, "Lost in Space"), who assure her that it was all just a recurring nightmare, which seems to be true when it's revealed that the actual night nurse for the morgue is not the same nurse from the girl's vision. Eventually, the patient is discharged from the hospital, and plans to board a passenger plane to another city (I think it was either New York or Las Vegas, but I'm not sure), where another dancing gig awaits her. At the airport, however, she feels a sense of deja vu when she's told that the plane she's waiting to board is FLIGHT 22 -- THE SAME NUMBER AS THE HOSPITAL MORGUE! As she's about to walk up the stairs leading into the plane, she notices with a start that the stewardess looks exactly like the mysterious nurse from her vision/nightmare. The stewardess smiles at her and says "Room for one more, honey." Screaming again, the former patient runs back into the airport terminal. The plane takes off without her -- AND EXPLODES IN MID-AIR!

Once the ghost showed up, the guy ended the whole story off with "cool it man, get yourself a bandaid"

Interesting theory going in the medical field: books are often a representation of how people see the world around them. The story Alice in Wonderland is about a girl who has a distorted world she thinks is real. Things seem to be larger or smaller, and even she grows and shrinks. Since then, a mental disorder has been discovered that causes the human brain to interpret things as being a different size. One person reported feeling taller than she actually was. It is now believed that Lewis Carroll (author of Alice In Wonderland) suffered from this disorder. Another famous person believed to suffer from this is Picasso. And for a weird tale, I was read a story in 4th grade about a lying frog. The lying frog was so bad that when the mother frog was sick and dying she told him to bury her in the opposite location of what she wanted. She wanted a beautiful meadow or something to be buried in. Instead she said in a bog where her body would eventually wash away. She thought her son wouldn't listen and do the opposite of what she asked because that was part of his usual attitude. Instead, he chose to honor his mother's wishes and buries her exactly where she asked. Super creepy

im so glad you mentioned scary stories to tell in the dark its one of my favorite books out there!! i never finished the movie but the part that i watched was amazing!

I cried my eyes out when I read "The Little Match Girl" but I liked it. She was living miserably and finally found happiness in the end is how I thought about it. Such a bittersweet story

I got a big book full of Hans Christian Anderson tales years ago. I read the little match girl with my mom and we both ended up bawling!

I was scared the most as a kid by Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. I read some of them to my family at night while we went camping. Some are a group effort, and it was always fun to share something spooky. I was more afraid of bears who were lurking out of the lights reach. I was wondering if you would do an episode about TV shows and movies for kids that are scary. I watched an episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark?, and I developed a fear of empty walls. It was the episode with Quicksilver. Buffy the Vampire Slayer scared me a lot too.

I LOVED scary stories as a kid. I actually read many that are at the end of the video & still have them in a box of books I saved from my childhood. Others I just borrowed from the library. I loved the scary story section, & all the ones that popped up around Halloween.

I was hoping you would mention the library book that haunts me to this day!

I love Goosebumps, Fear Street, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, and all of Neil Gaiman's work. The stories are fun, creative, and memorable. And yes, scary, but in a way that was enjoyable. A shared experience since you knew you weren't alone in being spooked by these tales. Plus, horror stories are morality stories where the bad person gets their comeuppance in gruesome, creative ways.

I grew up reading all the old fairy tales and I love to them then I found in the dark dark room at my school library and I fell in love with that so naturally after that I seeked out scary stories to tell in the dark my favorite one was The voice how it creeped up the stairs and into the little boy's room 😊 and I was a big fan of Goosebumps but I'm sure there's more now than when I was little 🤣

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark and Goosebumps were my JAMSSSSS

I’ve heard of “The Little Match Girl” story, but it’s quite different? So basically, there was this poor girl, shivering in the cold winter selling matches, she was afraid to go home because her abusive father would beat her up for failing to sell any matches. She kept trying to sell these matches but they just walked pass her and ignored her. In the flame of these matches, she could see scenes of comforting visions: The warm oven stove, the glowing Christmas tree, and the delicious roast goose. Each vision disappears as the match burns out. Then she sees and shooting star in the sky, which her late grandmother says it means someone is on their way to heaven. In the flames of the next match, she could a vision of her late grandmother, the only person who treated her with love, and kindness. The girl wanted to keep this vision alive for as long as possible, so then she lights the entire bundle of matches. When the matches were gone, she saw a real vision of her grandmother. She was so happy to see her. She said: “Don’t leave me Grandma!”, her grandma said: “This time I won’t, come with me.”. The girl took her hand and her grandma carries her soul to heaven. She froze to death, but she died with a warm smile on her face. The passer-bys express themself with pity seeing the little girl. But they do not know the wonderful visions she had seen, nor do they know that she is now happy in heaven with her grandmother.

16:38. I LOVE THIS BOOK. I recently talked about it and how I miss it because I loved reading it as a kid but I don't remember what happened to it. It's such a surprise to see it in the video, and now I know what it's called because I forgot the name of it before ❤ I also read Goosebumps books almost religiously as a kid lol

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark was the book that started my love of horror. By the time Goosebumps came out I was already "too cool to read a nerd book". But, after having my own daughter and her reading the Goosebumps books do I see how scary they can actually be.

Fun fact: Dutch themepark the Efteling has a recreation of The Little Match Girl and even as a young child, I've loved the story. It was a nice reminder that death can be beautiful, because it's like the final cutscene in a video game. It's over. You can rest now.

lol the Scary Stories to tell in The Dark was my aunt’s weapon of choice! She was babysitting me and my brother and thought she would be funny and read the book to us as a bed time story. Grammie and Mom were both upset with her

I think that's how the kids are growing up now, these stories will surfice.

Hey ^^ the video was great! I just wanted to leave a comment to „Aschenputtel”. It’s going to be long 😅🥲 So when the first stepsister cut of her toe and put the shoe on the prince and her started riding away on his horse but then they came to the tree on Aschenputtels grave and there say white pigeons who told the prince that it was the wrong girl and that blood was dripping out of the shoe. The same thing happens to the second stepsister. The prince asked the stepmother if she had another daughter and she sat no. Then Aschenputtel managed to free herself out of the room she was locked in and the prince realized the stepmother HAD another daughter but hid her so he let her try on the shoe and it fitted. Then they rode of came to the tree again and the Withe pigeons were really happy and said something like „Thats the right girl” I know this since I’m German and I read the story when I was younger :D Ofcourse it could be that to the story I read was more information added Also i think we call „struwwelpeter” „Struppelpeter”. It’s hard to explain put „struppelig” is like something you call hair. As example: „struppeliges Haar” its like „messy hair” so hair that basically is really hard to brush I read the story too. 😅 I actually liked some German kids story which were kinda brutal if you look far into it. Like „Max und Moritz” (Max and Moritz) (they die at the end and get eaten bye ducks lol. I loved that story and read it like a hundred times) I read all of the German story’s in this video. Yes the brutal ones. I didn’t think of it as tragic when I was young. My brother also liked them.

16:31 is a really popular story. ‘The Green Ribbon’ has an animated and slightly different adaptation to it on another channel which tells horror stories that are really nice. The channel is called ‘Snarled’! It has a bunch of good folklore and legends if you’re into that.

I remember the green ribbon story. I mean, I knew about a lot of these, but the green ribbon one was one I'd FORGOTTEN about and now re-remember it.

One of the most messed up ones is where she cried her eyes out and the author told people to just be happy. Imaging your dog died and people expected you to "Just smile more" or "Just be cheerful."

I've read completely through" Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" And I've read 50 some odd of the goosebumps including three that he listed, also watched Coraline. I wasn't scared but my older sister at the age of nine was while I was 6.

I've read about the ribbon girl before. The version i read was a little different, but freaky and unsettling still. Then, I was addicted to horror. Scary Stories to tell in the dark ended up being a favorite book. Her story and others actually helped me draw inspiration for writing horror stories.

8:40 here in Germany there also exist the movie „Achenputtel“ where the story happens like described in the video. Only exception is, that because it is a kids movie they don’t show how they cut off parts of their feet, they only say that it happens, and also there are no pigeons at the wedding. The movie is now about 40 years (but probably older) old and is still broadcasted every Christmas on TV.

I prefer the darker, creepier versions.

I had that book, "In a Dark Dark Room" and I remember the story about Jenny... Then as an adult I saw those 'Orphan' films and they made me think it may have been VERY loosely based on the story about Jenny. Though, the ribbons Esther wore around her neck she also wore around her wrists, and they were to hide scars, rather than keep her head attached...lol But it still gave me that vibe, because I found Ester to be really eerie just like I found Jenny to be especially eerie when I was a kid. I also had Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, as well as More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark , and Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill Your Bones. I still have the first one from 1981, got it at my school book fair when I was in middle school, about 8 years after it was published.

The scary thing is my 2nd grade teacher literally read us little match girl like I was 7 years old

This video stirred up some old childhood memories. I now remember being read some of these old stories as a child in pre-school or Kindergarten. This is not the first time I've heard some of these stories.

When I was a kid, I remember Mrs piggel-wiggle, and of course I read all the original Grimm stories.

Most of the standard : "Fairy Tales" were originally what is termed cautionary tales. They were NEVER meant to be funny or amusing, but they were meant to teach you the proper manners and ettiquet of the time. The blame for the loss of the learning type of those tales goes to hollywood and similar places. You might want to go look up the tale of the Scissor Man & little Jhonny Suck-a-Thumb. Or the history behind some of the Mother Goose and similar Nursery Rhyms, Pay specific attention to the rhym of Ring-a-round the Rosy, it has survived in it's original form from the time of the Black Death up til modern times UNCHANGED.

The haunted house picture scared me for years as a kid!

I come from Geramny and grew up with Struwwel Peter and it has never been so scary or traumatizing for me because I always knew that these were just stories and every child knew that adults lie to get children to do things like bathing, Combing hair and so on. I also grew up with the goosebumps books, which were intended for kids at the age of 12 and up. They were really scary but in a way we could handle. Lots of my friends read the books and we loved the thrill

Also, i found Puline's story much darker than the thumb-sucker. You can liitterally see her burning to ash and her cats crying over her ashes. The Soup-casper starved himself to death and they show his grave. At least the Thumb-sucker was aloud to live on. But i never knew of this american struwelpeter. Have to check that out.

Matilda Who told Lies, and was Burned to Death - my daughter age 9 or so found it on our libraries bookmobile and brought it home. She LOVED it -and thankfully we all have a dark sense of humor so --- she would take it our almost every week - I know the library worker thought we were weird. When my daughter went away to college one year for Christmas I found a copy on Amazon and sent it to her for a present - she was thrilled (The Door Slamming book is by the same author I believe)!!

I am a child and I love Grimm's fairy tales.
