Of all episodes, instances and "monsters" in this series, How much of it do you think was actually based on the truth?

All the spoops are based on real events, as far as I know. The events are just played skewed instead of straight.

Far to many different "spoops" are in this show to have all of them be based on real things. That is of course unless the writers went through basically every folk tale that has been told through the ages.
Like where are the howlers from? they are my favorite "spoop" from the x files, they are the things that appear in the pictures taken when that fat german guy is around.

>The story idea of a Polaroid camera taking pictures of something other than the intended subject was the basis for the novella "The Sun Dog" by Stephen King, included in the "Four Past Midnight" collection.
Other than that, wasn't that episode explicitly the writers' twist on the soul-stealing cameras mythos?
