Channel Zero was a surprisingly taut series that lasted 4 seasons on Syfy. This horror anthology dived into the most disturbing stories of the internet - creepypastas. You might even know one famous creepypasta, Slenderman. While Slenderman had already been used by many studios and companies due to his horrific (and popular) nature, there are many more tales left on the internet to pore over.
Four separate stories were chosen for Channel Zero, with each season being one creepypasta. From a mysterious house that shows you your fears to a bizarre TV show attached to murders, here's a list of The 10 Scariest Moments From Channel Zero.
*Major Spoiler Warning*
10. The Tooth Creature Feasts
Season: 1 Episode: 1
From the first moment you meet this creature in Iron Hill, you know Channel Zero is a show like no other.
A young girl, Katie, is found in the woods, far from home. Elated to find her, child psychologist Mike returns her home to her family. But she left a few teeth behind. A bit odd. Perhaps for a tooth fairy? Oh, how we wish it was that simple. A creature made entirely of teeth comes through the forest and feasts on the teeth. While nothing gory happens, the tone is set for Candle Cove; no one was prepared for what this series had to offer.
9. Candle Cove is Real
Season: 1 Episode: 2
You'd think a bunch of characters from a kid's television show named Candle Cove would be cute and harmless. Yeah, not exactly.
These pirate-themed characters danced around the screen with joy. Mike, the main character of this season, lost a twin brother in 1988, amongst other grisly murders. These seemingly unrelated events tie together in the worst of ways. This show aired in 1988 and ended right after the murders. It then aired again in 2016 as more kids are killed off. This show seems to affect the children who watch it. But these disturbing episodes that only children can see are just the start. Watching the new generation of kids start to become violent and go missing is absolutely terrifying... especially Katie.
8. First Encounter With the No-EndHouse
Season: 2 Episode: 1
Four teens of a small town hear a rumor of a No-End House. A home that appears randomly around the country, full of horrific haunted house displays. And it has appeared for a limited time in their home town. This piques their interest, although Margot seems a bit unsure. Tons of people are lined up at this house, taking turns going in.
There are apparently 6 rooms, each catered to scare the specific groups that wander in. After the first toom being slightly scary sculptures of each member of the group, the next room decides to pump it up. A man in a mask and suit creepily walks towards them. The masked man then whispers something to Margot: the name her father always called her. This house knows something it shouldn't. The lights turn off and on. The masked creature and one of the guests are missing, with blood smeared everywhere. Nothing is as it seems.
7. The Father Eating Memories
Season: 2 Episode: 2
Margot's dad committed suicide before the start of the show, causing her to spiral into apathy. She just... exists. After encountering the No-End House, she leaves and thinks that she is back in the real world. The problem is, she isn't. When she returns home, she finds her father
The Father is the moniker given to Margot's dad, as he is not entirely her father. It is as if the memories of her father embodied an empty shell... and this shell has an insatiable hunger. For memories. Leaching off of Margot, he goes into the basement while she sleeps and recreates his wife via her memory... and proceeds to eat her like a feast. This scene sets the bar for uncomfortable and horrific moments that Channel Zero has to offer.
