#10: Cracks, Sesame Street
When I initially read this, I had to do a double or triple take. Almost nothing about the true meaning of what is described is apparent without some extra research… That alone can be understood as a red flag. This is one of the more bizarre stories I’ve read, from the film’s content to its subsequent removal from air and eventual rediscovery.
I was so curious that I even found the shorts myself. While it’s not exactly the stuff of nightmares, it’s certainly not the cute and educational stuff we expect from Sesame Street. Suffice it to say that the quality of the animation itself is enough to make you want to hide, but if you don’t believe me, check it out on YouTube.
