Is ‘Jeepers Creepers’ real?

The answer to the question asked about the Jeepers Creepers film series in this headline is of course, no. However, like other obscure and well-known franchises in horror and other genres, it may be somewhat rooted in our reality.

The movies began in 2001 and were initially directed and conceived by convicted sex offender Victor Salva. Over four films a rotating and sometimes recurring cast of characters has battled against a mysterious and demonic creature who goes on a feeding spree every 23 years. An official comic book notes the “Creeper” has been around since the heyday of the Aztecs and Salva said he was inspired by Steven Spielberg’s Duel, but in recent years a number of fans and writers have picked up on how the beginning of the first film appears to be a strong homage to the case of deceased murderer Dennis DePue.
