So… the scariest monster of my childhood

All of us has grown knowning tales like Little Red Riding Hood or Frankenstein, seriously doubting about existence of aliens or ghosts, believing on Santa Claus or Easter Bunny. However, there's a story, that due to his specificity on space and time, makes him one that is able to letting you think if it's real or just fiction, Dracula. On this ultra-famous book is where was created one of the most popular terms to talk about vampires, Nosferatu.

Nosferatu, basically, would be a synonym of vampire, but it's also a movie, entitled "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror", that, really... as soon as I saw it, my mind just went out of place. As a german expressionist vampire horror film, released on 1922 and filmed by F.W. Murnau, it scared my whole childhood. Until now, I find it so creepy and horrifying.

 Like every vampire (at leas, the “original” vampires), he has big teeth to suck blood of their victims, he can’t tolerate sunray so he is pretty more active in the night. This way, it sounds like any other “classic” vampire, but, just look at his face. With a bald head, he has sharp ears (like elf’s ears), some kind of “natural”, giants and darks eye bags, with very thick eyebrows, unnatural large fingers and  basically, every single tooth is (or looks) like a fang.

I always remember the scene where he opens the door of a room and stays in front of it, or another in which he’s going upstairs, and you only see his shadow contour.

What a bad memories I have of it…
