If you’re anything like me, you can’t help but resist the suspense of a good scary movie. Having to pay for cable, Netflix might be one of the only ways to find a way to satisfy your need for a thriller. The thing is, there are a lot of movies on Netflix, so it can be difficult to weed out the corny low-budget films from the ones that leave you on the edge of your seat. Here’s a list of some of the perfect movies to stream amidst Halloween festivities:

1. "The Blair With Project"

Even though this one starts off slowly (in my opinion), "The Blair Witch Project" is still a cult-classic that quickly progresses. When a group of students ventures out into the Maryland woods to test the authenticity of an eerie myth, will they make it out alive?

2. "The Nightmare Before Christmas"

While some have a hard time figuring out whether it is better to watch this film closer to Halloween or Christmas, there’s no denying that this is a perfect film for a dismal autumn afternoon. If you’re looking for a movie that’s less creepy but still chock-full of the Halloween spirit, this is for you. A Tim Burton animation, there’s no better way to really gear up for Halloween than with this musical classic.

3. "The Village"

M. Night Shyamalan tends to direct darker movies with a twist, and he certainly doesn’t disappoint with this one. "The Village" is captivating with a series of surprises, leaving you to wonder who the real antagonist is (and what year it actually takes place, honestly).

4. "You're Next"

It can often be challenging to find a "slasher" film that isn’t too gory or cheesy, but "You're Next" is a winner. After keeping you on your toes throughout the duration of the film, the ending will leave you shocked.

5. "Interview with the Vampire"

Based on the book by Anne Rice, this classic takes on the 18^th-century world of vampires. Starring a young Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and Kirsten Dunst each playing a vampire, this all-star-cast film makes for an irresistible watch.

6. "Scream"

Even though some of the scenes have a tendency to be a bit tacky in this timeless pick, the ending is unexpected. The first, second and third movies of the "Scream" trilogy are on Netflix, while the fourth (and the best, in my opinion) is available for streaming through Amazon and other sources.

7. "Grave Encounters"

If you like creepy insane asylum movies, you’re in luck! Both "Grave Encounters" and "Grace Encounters 2" are currently streaming on Netflix. A team of paranormal investigators decides to investigate an abandoned asylum, but will they be able to find their way back out?

8. "Saw"

I tended to stay away from the six "Saw" movies because of how the trailers made them look. A few months ago, I decided to give them a try, and I can’t say that I regret it. Even though they’re notorious for a certain “horror effect,” they lean more towards the mind-bending aspect. The first four movies of the series are on Netflix, and each one will leave you putting the pieces together until the credits begin to roll.

9. "Sleepy Hollow"

Based off the Washington Irving Tale, this haunting film takes place in the 1700s and has a very grim vibe. Starring a young Johnny Depp (yes, please!) and directed by Tim Burton, it’s sure to send chills down your spine.

10. "The Taking of Deborah Logan"

I have to admit that the cover picture for this movie threw me off at first when I was scrolling through my Netflix feed. I decided to give it a chance one lazy Sunday afternoon, and I’m more than happy that I did. The movie follows a woman who has fallen ill to Alzheimer’s disease, but there is a source of something much more sinister in her home.

11. "Oculus"

A more recent film, "Oculus" has some mixed reviews. The best way to describe this movie that it's a mixture of both "Poltergeist" and "Inception." Compiled of both present-day scenes and flashbacks, a key component is figuring out if the characters are actually experiencing horrors inside of their childhood home or not.

Of course, there are a lot of other spooky Netflix picks besides these 11. If you have the time, try watching a few of these before you go to sleep at night, if you dare!
