Best horror movies on Netflix

1. The Forest 

After her twin sister goes missing while hiking in a forest in Japan known as “Suicide Forest,” she goes to look for her. As you may have already guessed, this was a bad idea.

2. House of the Witch

Remember being young and feeling invincible? Well, the teens in House of the Witch are that daring! When an unseen and evil spirit crashes their party, the group of friends race against the clock to escape the haunted house with their lives.

3. Stephanie

Nothing is more creepy than horror movies with children at the center of it. A young girl names Stephanie is abandoned by her parents and left to survive on her own in their home. Audiences aren’t sure why they left her behind in a seemingly haunted house, until the final act.

4. Temple

Locals told them to stay away, but American’s aren’t the best listeners, especially in horror movies. So when a small group of American tourists is told to stay away from a  mountain shrine, they do the exact opposite.

5. No Escape Room

Meet the ultimate monster-in-law! In The Binding, a woman decides to meet her fiance’s mother in southern Italy. But soon after arriving, they discover there’s an evil entity trying to claim her daughter’s soul.
