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.

My fiancé and I like to watch It (the new one) and the Shining close to Halloween time. Also the Halloween movies, for obvious reasons.

She likes to watch the Scream movies in the summer.

Beyond that, I don’t really look for an excuse to watch horror movies. 😅 I just watch them whenever.
