Terrrified of the Tingler

When I was thirteen we watched Friday night fright night scared to death, to the edge of our seat, screaming in terror it was the best night of the week, my cousins and I thought someone usually spent the night at our house to be terrified by it the scariest movie I ever saw was The Tingler starring Vincent Price, an obsessed doctor the tingler was a terrifying parasitic creature developed out of spinal cords of frightened people if they screamed, the tingler could be destroyed a deaf mute who could not scream died from The Tingler We screamed and screamed at the bathroom scene until our mom told us to stop it, because it was annoying Dad. I can hardly even imagine seeing it in a theater for the first time because the tingler escaped and ran amok in a movie theater I imagine the theater goers were screaming their heads off too there is no one scarier than Vincent Price, tingler or no tingler
