Everyone grew up with a scary family in their neighborhood. I suppose nowadays that definition might include the people who voided their condo agreement by painting their garage door in an unacceptable color. On the other end of the spectrum, there's probably the house that always has those annoying drive-by shootings.

But when I was a kid you had to go quite a bit out of the everyday to be The Scary Family, and the winner on my block, hands down, was the abnormal Addamses known as The Jenkins Family.
