Reply to comment by inStLagain in TIL that when Unsolved Mysteries aired a segment on missing child Nyleen Marshall, they were contacted by a man who thought he might have gone to school with Nyleen. This turned out not to be Nyleen, but a different missing child, Monica Bonilla, who had been abducted by her noncustodial parent. by TychaBrahe

I had a roomate who was terrified of that opening theme song. As a noticeable, get up, and walk out of the room reaction when he saw heard it play.

I mean, I get it, as a kid you hear that song and what follows is a terrifying story that releases an unimagined and unresolved horror into a child's mind. Little Timmy isn't sleeping if he watches that episode and probably will wet the bed sometime in the next week. It creates a pavlovian association at some point.

Man lives
in a sunlit world
of what he believes to be
reality.

But,
there is—
unseen by most—
an underworld.
A place that's just as real,
but not as brightly lit.
