First, we'll start with my lists because we all know that's what you're here for. (And you know how I looooove to make lists.) Some of these will be true horror, featuring hideous monsters, slashing serial killers, and bloody gore. Others will be horror-adjacent, featuring the tropes of horror stories or horror characters in non-horrific settings, such as headless detectives, monsters chillin' at school, and chosen ones with creepy BFFs.
