Summary: The Haunting of Hill House: A family gets torn apart after living in Hill House, a creepy mansion with a dark past. Years later, they come together, but the trauma of their time there, mixed with terrifying ghostly encounters, comes back to haunt them. The show explores grief, guilt, and the chilling supernatural events that continue to mess with their minds.
Watching The Haunting of Hill House was an experience that stuck with me long after it ended. The story was so captivating, and instead of relying on cheap jump scares, the horror felt like it seeped into my mind. I’d close my eyes and still feel the ghostly presence around me. The twist was amazing, and the performances were perfect. It’s rare for me to want to rewatch something, but this is one of those shows I’d love to forget and experience all over again.

Summary: A governess takes on the job of looking after two kids at a remote estate, Bly Manor. Soon, she realizes something’s wrong as strange things start happening. The series digs into the manor's secrets, with ghostly encounters and a haunting tale of love and loss that blurs the lines between life and death.
While watching The Haunting of Bly Manor, I found it to be good, maybe even above average, but it didn't hit the same terrifying notes as The Haunting of Hill House. I appreciated the familiar characters, which added to the charm. The spooky vibe and storyline were engaging, and the cast delivered solid performances. However, it felt a bit lacking in the horror department compared to its predecessor. Overall, it’s a decent watch but doesn't quite deliver the same chilling experience.

From the first episode of From, I was completely hooked. The vibe, the acting, and the story all worked together beautifully, making it my second favorite in the horror genre. While it doesn’t feature traditional ghosts, the series delivers a gripping horror-thriller experience. The chilling presence of the ghost-like entities creates a terrifying atmosphere that had my heart racing. Overall, it’s a fantastic mix of thrill, horror, and suspense.

The writer is forced to confront the witch head-on, leading to a terrifying showdown between reality and the nightmare she thought was fiction.
While watching Marianne, I felt the fear and thrill were real as the protagonist was haunted by the ghost throughout the series. The acting was great, and the story kept me hooked, but the ending could’ve been better. The ghost lost some of its scare factor by the end. Overall, it's a solid watch for horror fans, with enough suspense and eerie moments to keep you engaged, even though the conclusion didn’t fully deliver on its earlier promise.

Summary: A group of terminally ill teens gathers every night at midnight to share scary stories at their hospice. They make a pact that whoever dies first will try to contact the others from the afterlife. But when strange events start happening, they realize the stories might not just be fiction after all.
While watching The Midnight Club, the house where they lived gave off spooky, haunted vibes that set the perfect tone. I really enjoyed the characters' made-up horror stories, and both the characters and the storyline were solid. However, I’m quite disappointed that the sequel was abandoned by the creators. It leaves the story feeling incomplete. Overall, it’s a good series with a nice blend of horror, drama, and a well-crafted story, but the lack of a sequel is a big letdown.
