Want to feel some chills running up and down your spine and the only streaming subscription you have is Netflix?

You're all set: this service has a lot to offer you in the horror department, especially this season.

The keys to making a successful streaming service are pretty simple: you have to have a lot of content, both original and licensed, this content should be quite diverse, yet there should be one that you excel in, one that would become your main selling point. Now, you probably don't think of horrors as Netflix 's trademark, but it's still a huge part of its diversity pool.

And the genre of horror can be interpreted in many different ways, too, so you can find anything on Netflix: from super creative gore courtesy of Thanksgiving and Dawn of the Dead to hauntingly chilling Lights Out.

If you want to deal with some monster action from the past, you can always put on Anaconda with J Lo: it still holds up and creates suspense really well, despite slightly aged visual effects.

And don't forget Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, an anthology of kid's tales that Guillermo del Toro adapted specifically for Netflix.
