HELLOOOOOO. While spooky season might be coming to an end, it can live on year-round with a slew of different horror series all across streaming platforms. It doesn’t need to be October for you to get in some good frights, and there are dozens of horror series that have a little bit of something for everyone.
With many of these series being anthologies, they’re always reinventing themselves in new and exciting ways so it’s easy to get caught up in a bunch of episodes (or seasons). There are also plenty of world-building series, like with the Walking Dead shows, and series based off of TV shows. And of course, there’s plenty of the Upside Down to go around for everyone and if every day could be spent in Hawkins, we’d do it.
So if you’re looking for a new fright, here are the most tracked series. Maybe watch with the lights on?
