For those still stuck in October.

It seems that everyone loves the winter holiday season and the obligatory rom-com rewatches that come with it. As nice as it is to watch something sweet and fun once in a while, these types of movies can get repetitive and boring, especially if they weren't your cup of tea to begin with.

So if you still feel like continuing the spooky season, no matter what time of the year it actually is, here are 5 K-drama horrors to distract you from the jingle of Christmas bells.

Strangers from Hell (2019)

There's nothing more exciting than getting a job in a big city and moving. However, Yoon Jong Woo has nowhere near enough money to afford an apartment of his own in Seoul, so he decides to rent a room in a shared house. He knows that he made a big mistake when the apartment turns out to be full of mysterious events.

Gyeongseong Creature (2023)

The charismatic and proactive Jang Tae Sang, who is loved by many and not afraid to use his privileges, gets involved with Yoon Chae Ok, who is known for her troubled past and her incredible ability to find missing people. Together they try to solve some mysterious missing persons cases but find something much more terrifying.

The Guest (2018)

Three young children, who were orphaned at the same time by the demon who's known as The Guest, are reunited when the murders begin. The taxi driver, the priest, and the detective – they all have their strengths and their weaknesses, but most of all, they all want to take revenge for what has happened.

All of Us Are Dead (2022)

When an ordinary high school becomes ground zero for a zombie virus outbreak, there's not much left for the teachers and students to do. Either they find a way out and try to survive the horror of the post-apocalyptic world, or they give up and join the army of the dead to possess everyone else.

Kingdom (2019)

Kingdom is not only great horror, but it's also set in the Joseon era, which makes it even more attractive for all lovers of period dramas. The crown prince, who has declared himself a traitor, sets out to find out more about the disease that killed the king. Instead, he finds himself in the middle of the epidemic.
