Question 13

Has there ever been a Ghostface killer in real life?

Accepted Answer

After the first Scream, each sequel is essentially about a string of copycat serial killers. The 1996 Scream was initially loosely inspired by real-life serial killer Danny Rolling, aka the Gainesville Ripper. And, unfortunately, real killers (and the press) have attributed true crimes to the Scream movies. To be clear, none of these examples are meant to suggest that slasher movies cause people to kill.

In 1998, teenage cousins Mario Padilla and Samuel Ramirez stabbed to death Padilla's mother, Gina Castillo. Though references to Scream were forbidden in court proceedings, the killers spoke about their unfulfilled plan to buy Ghostface costumes and voice-changers to terrorize and murder classmates.

In 1999 in North Yorkshire, England, 13-year-old boy Ashley Murray was stabbed multiple times and left for dead by two teens, Daniel Gill and Robert Fuller, after they had watched a Scream movie.

In 2001 in Belgium, 24-year-old Thierry Jaradin murdered 15-year-old Alisson Cambier, stabbing the girl to death while wearing a Ghostface costume. The Guardian reported that Jaradin spoke about being "motivated" by the Scream movies.

In 2002 in France, a 17-year-old boy identified only as Julien murdered 15-year-old Alice Beaupèr while wearing a Ghostface mask.

In 2006 in the United States, Cassie Jo Stoddart was stabbed to death by high-school classmates Brian Lee Draper and Torey Michael Adamcik. The killers later boasted about their crime as being "just like Scream."
