1971.

Five years before the horrific Chowchilla school bus kidnapping, the opening of this episode of Monty Nash seemed to predict - or perhaps inspire - it.

The second half was filmed at Franklin Canyon Reservoir in the same spot where the Brady Bunch went camping and where Andy and Opie went fishin'

The Black Phone, Finney Blake, and the Chowchilla Kidnappings

So I was jumping onto another post about how quickly Finney seems to go back to school after being kidnapped, witnessing a murder, killing a grown man with his bare hands, and talking to ghosts. It's a lot. And yet, there he is and we have no idea how much time has passed.

The Black Phone takes place in 1978. You know what happened two years earlier? The Chowchilla kidnappings.

This scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. Three loser rich kids kidnapped an entire fucking BUS full of kids in a summer school program who were being driven home after a trip to the local pool. The kids were taken hours away from town, and put in a trailer that was underground. They were, essentially, buried alive.

They got out. Rather swiftly too, and found by some quarry workers. (Two of the rich brats were sons of the quarry owner.) Then they were sent home. Hurray! Everyone was saved!

...This turned out to be the biggest study of PTSD in kids to that point. They all suffered, and their parents for the most part, didn't get them help because they were too ashamed to admit they needed it.

Now, from that real case, we go back to Finney Blake. This kid is already repressing a hell of a lot of trauma. Dead mom, abusive dad, lost his best friend. And then the Grabber gets him, he sees Max die in front of him, ect. If they make a sequel that's nothing but Finney's trauma, I would think that was fair.

And remember what a conservative ass his dad probably is. HIS son doesn't need any s*ssy therapy, of course not. So the PTSD and the anger will fester, and grow. Eventually, it will come out. How, who knows. But it won't be pretty.

Jennifer Brown Hyde of the Chowchilla 27

I watch 48 Hours often and was truly dumbfounded after watching an episode tonight. It was about the 1976 kidnapping of an entire school bus of children in Chowchilla California. Not only was the entire event a blessing by God but as a survivor (6 year old Jennifer) was asked a question after recovery “why do you think they did it?” her answer literally floored me! In my educated opinion her…

Original vintage grapefruit citrus crate label 1930s

Original vintage commercial advertising label. These labels were pasted on the ends of wooden crates packed with oranges lemons apples and other fruits and vegetables. These colorful crates were shipped nationwide via the railway system to be sold in the local markets. Packers and growers would order labels from printing companies that specialized in this work, these companies employed commercial artists in large numbers. The artists were not paid well, and rarely received any acknowledgment for there creations. Most commercial use of labels ended during wwii due to commodity rationing and shortages. The cardboard box was adapted to ship fruit and labels were almost completely phased out by the 1950s.

Dennis #Cosaro delivered a #pizza to in the late 90s when we first movies into #Chowchilla, CA. He told me he owned the restaurant, and bragged about how good his pizza was because of the sauce and being handmade. He was right. #RIP https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnphix7Ptky/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

oh, and he took CREDIT for the escape??? fuck you, Ed Ray!!!

watching a documentary on the Chowchilla kidnapping, and holy shit the adult bus driver is a useless coward. sorry that isn't very charitable of me, and i am not done yet so my opinion may change, but how are you gonna let a group of children stage the escape and dig you out of a subterranean prison. just sitting there and letting a 14-year-old dig you out alone.
