11 Shows From the '90s and Early '00s That Scared the Crap Out of You

Unless they're sneaking peeks at American Horror Story (heaven forbid, seriously), kids today don't even know how creepy TV can be. Growing up in the '90s, we were constantly scaring the sh*t out of ourselves on Saturday mornings with shows like Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Goosebumps. It's a wonder we ever got a wink of sleep with all the terrifying stories about haunted masks getting stuck to our faces and stuff. While those two shows are undoubtedly the crown jewels of the creepy kids' shows, there are several more that you may have forgotten about. Allow me to take you on a journey - one you will most certainly regret while tucking yourself in tonight.

Eerie, Indiana (1991-1992): NBC's Eerie, Indiana terrorized children who just wanted some good, clean fun on Saturday mornings. It starred Omri Katz, who later went on to play Max in Hocus Pocus, as a teenager who moves to a nearly abandoned town in Indiana. While on the surface Eerie (population 16,661) is a normal town, he soon discovers a variety of weird things happening within city limits.
