Creepy Childcare Centers

‘Horror Movie Daycare’ Pays Homage to the Scariest Child

— December 10, 2012 — Pop Culture
The creepy children showcased in some of the most terrifying horror flicks get a daycare of their own in this satirical Horror Movie Daycare sketch created by the funny people over at CollegeHumor.

The comedy sketch centers around daycare teacher Kathryn Daisy who takes a loving approach to these otherwise frightening children. To her, these kids are just like any other and deserve the same sort of attention and affection that other kids are afforded.

However, as you can imagine, conventional activities don’t always take place at the ironically named ‘Happy Dreams Daycare.’ Some of the kids still bear their creepy qualities such as having red glowing eyes or being possessed by some sort of demon. The juxtaposition of the scary yet innocence of these children and the naivety of the daycare teacher makes the Horror Movie Daycare sketch are humorous and creepy parody.
Trend Themes
1. Horror Movie Parodies - Opportunity to create more satirical sketches and parodies of popular horror movies in unconventional settings, such as daycare centers.
2. Normalization of the Scary - Opportunity to explore the idea of accepting and providing care for children with creepy qualities, challenging societal norms surrounding childhood and fear.
3. Blending Comedy and Horror - Opportunity to merge the horror and comedy genres, creating unique and entertaining content that appeals to a wide range of audiences.
Industry Implications
1. Entertainment - By capitalizing on the popularity of horror movies and the comedic elements, the entertainment industry can produce innovative content that engages viewers in new ways.
2. Childcare - Childcare centers can tap into the trend of incorporating unconventional activities and themes, providing a unique and memorable experience for children and their families.
3. Sketch Comedy - The sketch comedy industry can create disruptive content by combining horror and humor, appealing to viewers who enjoy unconventional and boundary-pushing entertainment.
