Picture this, if you dare:

It’s Halloween night, and to celebrate, you and your date decide to visit a traveling circus that suddenly appeared in your neighbourhood. The maniacal Ring-Master and her Werewolf companion invite you and your date to step into spooky house of mirrors. Even though your date is reluctant, you laugh (“Ha ha ha”), stroll through the dilapidated doors and titter at the humorous reflections of yourself tittering back at you.

However, while inside the dark, damp den of glass, you and your date are suddenly separated, and a creepy fog rolls into the room. You begin to hear distant wails and cackling, which makes you worry. You try to find your way out, but everywhere you turn, all you see is your increasingly panicked face staring back at you.

And then the reflections disappear and one by one, each mirror begins to reflect not you, but a scene you instantly recognise; it is a scene from movie/tv show you saw which still haunts you to this day. You try to escape watching it by turning away, but the next mirror is playing out another scene which terrified you to your core. You try to run but all the mirrors are playing different scene and you realise: you are trapped in here with all the scariest scenes from Film and TV! Aaaaaaaarrrgghhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Which brings us to our Top 5 Film/TV discussion for Halloween 2017: Your Top 5 Scariest Scenes from Films and Television.
