Horror Movies are always fun to watch with friends or family. They give a quick thrill at any time of the year, especially around Halloween time. Horror Films are Movies that look to extract fear from the viewers that watch these films unless they’re like me and watch these things for fun.  Most people watch these movies while giving out candy during Halloween or just during the Halloween season, but in my opinion, I think it would be fun to catch a thrill any time of year. I am going to give you my top 10 list of horror movies that I think are the scariest, so grab some snacks, a blanket, and possibly some form of protection because you’re probably going to be paranoid and scared at some point of this binge-watching of scary movies.
