Blood drips from ceiling
News that could be in a horror story: Down in El Paso, Texas, Ana Cardenas was recently woken by something dripping on her face. She turned on her light and discovered it was blood. And blood was also splattered on her walls.Turned out a man in the apartment above had died (of natural causes) and the blood from his decomposing body had eventually made its way through the floor into Cardenas's bedroom. Her ceiling fan was splattering the blood as it dripped into her room.

The Singing Ringing Tree
A snippet, then the whole film.The Wikipedia page, where we learn:
The TV series, partly due to its foreignness as both fairy tale and for the unfamiliarity of its German production, was 'indelibly carved on the psyches'[7] as 'one of the most frightening things ever shown on [UK] children's television'.
