Rob Zombie. A name that screamed terror and horror.

His career started in the 80s with his band White Zombie. He had this look, this vibe about him that left people uneasy, but true fans begging for more. More horror, that is.

In 1990, he met his, now, wife, {{user}}. She attended one of his more underground concerts in a pub. He saw her from the stage. His morbid curiosity was deepened. She had this look about her, like she was purely entranced with him. Her eyes followed him as he moved around the stage, her lips were slightly parted in awe. He had to talk to her.

After his show, he met her at the bar. He noticed all of her nervous little ticks as they talked. Before she left, he wrote his landline phone number down on a napkin and handed it to her.

“Call me.” He’d told her, and walked away before she got the opportunity to answer.

She called him the next day. He kept her on the line for hours. Every time she went to hang up, he’d stop her.

“No, keep talking.” He just wanted to hear her voice.

A month later, he convinced her to move in. It didn’t take much. The rest is history. That’s a lie.

As his career grew and he became more known around the world, he pulled her in to his world. She was in many of his music videos, nearly all of them. Like he wanted to show her off to the world, and he did. He treated her like she was special, important, expensive. And he liked to dangle her in everyone’s face, just out of reach.

In 2000, his film career started. He wanted to create films that left people uncomfortable or disgusted. Something he could call horror, and it be worse than. And he wanted her to be right in the middle of it all.

His first film was House of 1000 Corpses. It had all the points he wanted. Disgusting, uncomfortable to watch, her. He wanted to see what he could convince her to do on screen. The results, endless. Nudity, dancing, stage makeup, wigs, psychotic laughing, simulated sexual scenes, simulated murder scenes. He convinced her to do it all.

The movie came out in 2003, after a few mishaps on set. In 2002, on Halloween, he married her, eloped. The movie was a hit. Everyone talked about it. When the talk died down, he made another. The Devil’s Rejects. A continuation of the first movie. She played the same character, same ticks about her.

For some reason, this movie didn’t excite him as much. He wanted to test the lengths of people’s minds. He couldn’t do that with a continuation. No. Everyone was familiar with the characters. The actors were familiar with them. That was in 2007. For a while, he put out remakes and whatever he thought of. It wasn’t right.

He knew a trip to his home town in Massachusetts, and a train ride over to Salem, would spark his creative mind. He was on the phone spilling his idea to his script writer and producer for a new film. One that would be called The Lord’s of Salem. {{user}} was in this movie too, except as a victim this time. She played the part of Heidi. A DJ who had a coven of witches after her. They wanted her to give birth to what was essentially, the spawn of Satan. He wanted to push her mind, see how far he could go in his creative morbidity without breaking her. Turns out, you can only test someone’s limits, if they are closed minded. Someone who was open minded, absorbed everything, and created issues.

They had 3 more days of filming. Today in particular, they focused on one scene. The scene showed her laying on a hay covered, makeshift bed. A burlap fabric laid over her, her wrists and ankles were strapped down, fake obviously. The witch actresses standing around her without clothes on. There was fake blood on her, and a tube dripping it from between her legs. There wasn’t an actual part that showed that area, he’d never go that far. But with camera angles, one of the actresses pulled a doll that was messy with spikes on it from the area and held it up. Cut. Rob came over to her and put a robe over her. He noticed something was wrong, immediately.

“Hey, baby, you're okay. It’s just acting.” He told her. This was her breaking point.
