It wasn't scary (although it was supposed to be a ghost story) but "The Bermuda Depths" was very memorable in its made-for-tv glory. Giant turtle. Apollo Creed drowning. Scary eyed woman. Wooooo!
Also "This House Possessed"-the memory of the shower & swimming pool scenes creeped me out for years.
Back in the day-before cable was common-we 'depended' on network tv stations to entertain us. And they did!
Oh, and to whomever posted about "The Dummy" from USA Up All Night? Holy bleep-scariest. short. ever. It's the reason why, to this day, I have a clear shower curtain. Ain't no dummy sneaking into my bathroom while I'm washing my hair. -

Bad Ronald (1974), hands down. I was only 6 and my sister was 8 when it originally aired, and we had no business watching it, but there we were!
I never saw it again until late in 2010(?? approx) on YouTube, and it scared me just as much as it had when I was a kid. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
The book is extremely hard to come by, but my sister found it on Amazon (for $75!!), and bought it for me for Christmas last year. I stayed up that night until 2:00 am reading it. I had to force myself to stop at page 93 and go to bed.
ANOTHER GOOD MADE FOR TV MOVIE is "Trilogy of Terror."
I too have seen "The Dummy!" The part under the door made me jump so bad! Never watching that one again.
I will be sure to check out some of the recommendations in this thread - my thanks to you.

For me it was Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark. I saw it on it's original broadcast.
I also remember a TV movie called The House That Wouldn't Die. Starred Barbara Stanwyk.
I remember ABC's movie of the week had a bunch of scary occult type movies.
Along with those mentioned above was Ritual Of Evil with Louis Jourdan and Anne Baxter.
I may have seen the prequel, Fear No Evil but I don't remember.
