Plot Synopsis

In TRUE TERROR WITH ROBERT ENGLUND, veteran actor and legendary horror movie icon Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger of the A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET franchise) scours news reports of yesteryear to bring viewers twisted tales ripped straight from the headlines. "Revealing the sinister side of our history, I'm thrilled to bring nightmares to life on TRUE TERROR," said host Robert Englund. "These are tales so terrifyingly twisted, we can only hope they stay on the blood-soaked pages of the newspaper headlines from our past." In each one-hour episode, Englund weaves together a trilogy of spine-tingling tales, guided by newspaper accounts and layered with commentary from historians and experts that prove that truth is always stranger than fiction. From flying monsters to creatures in the night, to evil possessions and hauntings, these twisted tales leave viewers wishing the stories really were only in their dreams.
