    This post is a little outside the realm of what I usually blog about, but in the spirit of Halloween, I wanted to round up the best scary movies on Netflix.

    Spooky season is in full swing, and we all know that means watching the best scary movies and eating every pumpkin-spiced dessert we can get on our hands on.

    There’s no denying that Halloween just gets you into the mood to curl up and watch a horror flick.

    We all love the classics, but how many times can you re-watch Carrie or the Shining?

    Answer: the limit does not exist. Probably.

    They’re called classics for a reason, right?

    But for this list, I wanted to give you a list of the best scary movies on Netflix in 2020 to keep things updated. These movies were all released in the last several years, so hopefully there aren’t a lot on here you’ve seen already!

    If you’re a horror movie buff, you might have seen some of these already. I’d love to hear your recommendations in the comments as well!

    Whether you enjoy scary movies year-round, or only like to watch them during Halloween season, here are the top 20 best scary movies to stream on Netflix right now.
