The stabbing sound effect from Halloween is really a knife stabbing what?
Being a Foley artist seems really fun. For one thing, you're basically just watching movies all day, and you also get to hit random objects with other random objects.
It should come as no surprise that for John Carpenter's original Halloween, they didn't actually stab people. Instead, they invoked the art of Foley, and stabbed this object. What was it?

Correct Answer: Watermelon
The answer is: Watermelon. That gruesome sound of Michael Meyers stabbing his victims is really a recording of a knife stabbing a watermelon. The original Halloween (1978) had a shoestring $300,000 budget, half of which was spent on Panavision cameras, so the crew probably wound up eating the watermelon for lunch after they recorded the audio.Source
