The Town That Dreaded Sundown Quote

Jami: Grandma, do you remember anything about the murders?
Lillian: Oh dear God, barely. Just what I heard later. You know your great grandpa and your great grandma lived in this house when it happened. I remember my mama once said ti was like the town was being tested and no one knew why, even the grown ups were scared. He was the boogeyman they said, can't catch the boogeyman, can't kill the boogeyman, his father's the devil and his mother's a whore. Know before that summer, everybody would leave their doors unlocked, and after the summer, you saw a stranger, you wouldn't wave hello, you'd just cross the street.
Jami: What about when they made the movie?
Lillian: What about it?
Jami: Were people still afraid?
Lillian: Of the Phantom? No that faded, no one knew exactly who he was or what he did, just that he lived in this town ad attacked some teenagers on lover's lane. And then the movie brought it all back.
