HALLOWEEN MYTHS
Young trick-or-treaters have found razor blades in apples and pins in candy bars in their Halloween loot.
TRUE While only a few minor injuries have been reported (few kids will bite into an apple when they have a huge bag of candy in front of them), there have been several documented instances of kids or young adults inserting pins, needles and even razor blades in apples and candy bars as a poorly conceived prank.
The Jelly Belly Candy Company makes jelly beans flavoured like soap, spinach and ear wax.
TRUE Jelly Belly manufactures "Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans," a favourite of Harry Potter and friends in the popular books by J.K. Rowling. While the assortment also contains more conventional flavours such as cherry, blueberry and green apple, you'd best choose carefully lest you end up with one of the less appealing flavours -- including black pepper, sardine, booger and vomit.
The serial killers in the movies Silence of the Lambs, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Psycho are based on real people.
TRUE In fact, they are all based on the same person: Ed Gein, a Wisconsin man who was arrested in 1957 after police discovered his home was decorated with human body parts, including a suit made from human skin. While none of these movies are true stories, the characters were inspired by this creepy real-life killer.
Several people have come back to life after being pronounced dead and buried.
TRUE While not an everyday occurrence, this happens more than you'd like to think. Scratches discovered inside exhumed coffins have been a tell-tale sign of people having been buried alive; more fortunate others who revived before burial went on to live for days, weeks and even years. This fear has led to the invention of special coffins, telephones installed in crypts and even "make sure I'm dead" clauses in wills.
