9 Spooky TV Shows To Watch If You Don't Like Horror Movies

In This Article:

October is finally here which means that there are a lot of scary movies being watched. Some people, however, would rather watch a series instead of a movie. Although scary TV shows usually don't have the same effect as movies, they can still be scary enough. Most of the spooky TV shows that I have seen follow a storyline that keeps you wanting more. The plots are full of monster fights, crazy twists, and revelations with the perfect amount of normal and creepy!

Black Mirror

Most people have seen black mirror but if you haven't, this show spooks you in a variety of ways, depending on the episode. Some episodes keep me on my feet and others are just plain weird.

American Horror Story

American Horror Story isn't as scary as it is creepy. Each season has a different theme, most of which follow a twisted story line. It's probably one of the best TV shows to watch- especially during October.

Bates Motel

As a son and his mother open a hotel, the locals aren't friendly because they know the truth about the hotel. This series will definitely keep you on your toes with hauntings and plot twists.

Supernatural 

Season one is Supernatural's most scary season, however if you get sucked into this show it will likely become a favorite. The Winchesters fight all types of monsters that creep in the night and they work their way up to the tougher opponents. Each season gets more intense with a different antagonist for almost every season. This is a show that will keep you involved all the way to the end.

Penny Dreadful

This show is a psychological thriller that is about slaying monsters while solving mysteries. It hasn't been airing for long but the plot is captivating.

The Haunting of Hill House

This series follows siblings who grow up and have to face ghosts of their past. Although this series hasn't been airing for long, it is still a great one to watch.

Van Helsing

This series is about the world being overrun by vampires while Vanessa Helsing holds the power to turn vampires into humans. As Vanessa is fighting monsters and saving humanity, you'll be kept wondering what the next plot twist is going to be.

Wynonna Earp

Wynonna only has one task- and that is to take out resurrected souls of criminals that her great grandfather brought down. As the main character is a demon protector, there are lots of plot twists in this series that will definitely hold your attention.

Scream The TV Series

While mirroring some things from the movie franchise, it takes on its own story line, a new look for Ghost Face, and an all new group of friends.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.
