Netflix has given us a taste of the terrifying films that will be available this Halloween season, even though October hasn’t even started yet. A Stephen King adaption, Mr Harrigan’s Phone, Mike Flanagan’s The Midnight Club, Jeff Wadlow’s horror comedy, The Curse of Bridge Hollow, and Guillermo del Toro’s The Cabinet of Curiosities have all been confirmed for release on the streaming service in October. And thus, Netflix isn’t here to mess around when it comes to scares in 2018. As October approaches, Netflix has developed a horror portal called “Streams & Screams” to deliver a thrilling selection “designed for sharing—and terrifying.” You may find both old favourites and fresh content created specifically for Halloween under the “Streams & Screams” area, which is devoted to the genre of horror in all its forms, including thrillers, comedies, films about witches, and psychological and supernatural thrillers.
New and existing horror material, including Netflix originals like Bird Box, Gerald’s Game, Cargo, Fear Street, Day Shift, and The Babysitter, is featured on a dedicated page titled “Streams & Screams,” which can be accessed through the Netflix app or website. Under the “Streams & Screams” menu, you’ll find hundreds of specially selected titles to get you in the Halloween spirit. From “Teen Screams” to “Zombies, Vampires, and Ghouls” to “Horror Hidden Gems” to “Family Halloween Treats” to “Slashers and Serial Killers” to “This Place Is Evil” to “Modern Horror Classics” to “Horror Reimagined” and “Witchcraft & the Dark Arts,” Netflix subscribers can pick their preferred horror title from among several categorised options. Numerous Netflix originals populate each category, along with a smattering of non-Netflix exclusives. Teens will likely like the films featured in “Teen Screams,” which include “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and “Escape Room: Tournament of Champions,” while “Horror Hidden Gems” features pictures like “Cargo,” “Cam,” “A Tale of Two Sisters,” and “Creep” that have received little critical acclaim. On the other side, “Modern Horror Classics” has such iconic horror films as The Grudge, It, Anaconda, Evil Dead, and I Know What You Did Last Summer.
The “Horror Reimagined” subcategory also highlights horror remakes, such as the humorously campy Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the reimagined The Mist series, and the updated Carrie. To make things easier for its subscribers, Netflix has produced a list of the finest Halloween-related movies and TV episodes. Fans of the horror subgenre have extra material that has been curated for them just in time for the Halloween season.
