Welcome to Horror Explorer, a curated column showcasing the month’s best movies, series, books and everything else spooky worth checking out. I’m William Earl, the editor of Variety.com and the publication’s resident horror enthusiast.

Look, March isn’t the scariest month of the year. In fact, it’s probably in the top three least scary months, if we had to rank them. Thankfully, Netflix is here to help, with a selection of great horror movies to keep things creepy.

In the last few years, horror has had a resurgence at the box office and on streaming services. Movie fans still love to be scared, and modern horror has come a long way since the slasher flicks of the ‘70s and ‘80s.
