So, what Is Creepyhistory.com all about?
Well, we are a website that offers a glimpse of history that might be just a little too scary for an 8th grade textbook. " Isn't history all about learning dates and figures, that sounds kind of boring." Not at all! The truth is that History is about what it sounds like a story. The collective story about how all of us humans on this planet called earth got to where we are today. It’s the desperate heroics of WW2 soldiers, the steamy romance between emperor Justian and Theodora, and as this site will show it is also about the sheer horror Jack the Ripper gave to the citizens of London’s Whitechapel neighborhood. Some of things we talk about will be weird, some of it a little disturbing, and occasionally we even will veer into the horrific all in the hope to convince even the most skeptical person that history isn’t boring it’s downright bizarre.
But why talk about creepy stuff?
Honestly this is question that has a few different answers, a love of horror movies is probably one of them. But also, it’s the feeling that It is important to not just talk about the good things of the past but that it is also important to learn from the mistakes others made and to confront the things that scare us most about ourselves. By doing so maybe we can find ways to make the world we live in now just a little less scary. It’s also in part an attempt to keep the memory of the normal people who faced monstrous situations and whose stories are so often forgotten, so that maybe we can maybe someday find answers to some history’s biggest cold cases. But it's never lost on me and the CreepyHistory team that at the end of the day were talking about some awful things that happened to real people, this why we vow to cover every topic respectfully, compassionately, and with an obsessive commitment to factuality. Everything you read on creepyhistory.com is true to the best our ability. It is also why 20% of all money made by this website goes directly to charities who making the world a better place. It’s our sincere hope that this meager charity will help in some small part to one day create a world where we run out of creepy things to talk about.
Okay I guess il give you guys a look?
Glade to hear it! We post a new article every week on Mondays. Each week covers a different topic from creepy conspiracies, crazy experiments, freaky folklore, and true crimes. There is something to keep everyone up at night. So, take a look around but maybe… turn on the lights first.
