To ask about the creepiest TV shows

. . . here rather than in the designated area?

Not creepy in the Jimmy Savile sense but more in the style of the haunting of hill house. Apple, Netflix, Prime or Disney+. Thanks in advance.

I'm going really old school with...
Tales of the Unexpected.

Ju-On Origins is really creepy.

Not a TV show...but Danny Robins's podcast from last year, The Witch Farm, will frighten the living.....out of you. It's available on BBC Sounds.

I find uncanny more 'fun ' than scary. It's clearly all made up & very scripted. I found the witch farm a little sad. I think it's a story of a man sinking into alcoholism & depression than the supernatural. Easy listening for housework? yes , scary? No

The live Halloween episode of inside no 9 scared the shit out of me. Then I watched it again the following Halloween, thinking I’d be fine because I knew what was coming, and it scared the shit out of me again.

This was terrifying 😳

Haunting of Hill House is absolutely the most scary program I've ever seen.

Ok, showing my age here, but 'Children of the Stones'... that totally freaked me out when I was a child (the more so because we had to go to Avebury on a school trip shortly afterwards, and I was a nervous wreck!!).

Disclaimer: I am 'old'... only people of my generation will have the faintest idea what show I'm talking about! (I found it to rewatch on youtube during Covid, just to show my own DC what tv was like for children like me back in the day!!)

I rewatched it recently too. It was a very formative experience, watching it as a kid. Terrifying! Has given me a long term fascination with stone circles, though I'm yet to get to Avebury.

The first series of True Detective turned out to be the scariest thing I've ever seen on tv

Another one showing their age, but I remember the dwarf in "The Singing Ringing Tree" being really creepy as a kid. And the whole thing being generally weird.

Scariest show ever

Edit. Children of the Stones is the scariest show ever
