Do you guys have any seasonal horror favourites, either books or movies, that tend to come arounf yearly?
Do share christmas horror etc, but I'm more interested in horror for spring, summer, fall, any specific time when you find youself drawn to a particular horror media.
For summer, we tend to watch slashers. The Burning, Texas Chainsaw, Slumber Party Massacre, Toxic Avenger, Scream, Friday the 13th and Hatchet have been yearly contenders ever since the rona.
Fall is the time for gothic, supernatural and bleak horror. Paranormal activity, Sinister, Conjuring, all that jazz. Not to mention all the Halloween-themed stuff.
Krampus is the definite christmas movie, but Död Snö, The Thing, Blood Glacier, The Shining, 30 days of Night and Gremlins feature heavily when snow starts pouring.
I'm super into seasonal horror, and I'm constantly watching movies based on the time of year.
For summer I like slashers too, and really any 80s movies. It's also when I like to watch the dumb teen horror. Summer movies (80s horror): Prom night, Prom night 2, Death Spa, Return of the Living Dead, CHUD, Slumber Party Massacre, Slumber Party Massacre 2, Night of the Demons, Pledge Night, Hell Night, Slaughter High, Chopping Mall, Phantom of the Mall: Eric’s Revenge, Friday the 13th Franchise
Summer movies (other): Summer of ‘84, Truth or dare, Wish upon, The bye bye man, Slenderman
For autumn I like haunted house and Halloween movies, and more supernatural stuff that's actually creepy. Also the various rock horror movies they've watched on Best of the Worst. Autumn movies: Hell House LLC, Hellfest, Haunt, Extremity, Halloween Party, Terrifier 2, The Houses October Built, The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Hack’o’Lantern, Trick or Treat, Black Roses, Rocktober Blood, Scream, NoES and Paranormal Activity Franchises
And for winter I like, big surprise, winter and cold weather horror. Winter movies: Frankenstein Theory, Frozen, The Shining, Devil’s Pass (The Dyatlov Pass Incident), The Thing, We are Still Here, Wrong Turn 4, 30 Days of Night, The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Pontypool, Wind Chill, Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin, No Exit, The Curse of Aurore, The Last Winter
In spring I just watch whatever else is available.
