15 Emotional Horror Movies to Watch After Binging The Haunting of Bly Manor

The horror genre is predominantly about spooks and scares, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a good cry while watching a scary movie. In the vein of its preceding season, Netflix’s The Haunting of Bly Manor strikes a balance between horror and emotion skillfully. While it begins with creepy dollhouses and demonic faceless spirits, the story peels back to reveal layers of tragedy beneath the initial scares. Of course, the sucker-punch combination of horror and drama isn’t obscure or inaccessible. After you’ve binged your way through Mike Flanagan’s latest project, you’ll still be able to get your fix of emotional spooks elsewhere. From A Quiet Place to The Babadook, read ahead for the next heart-wrenching horror movies to add to your streaming queue — you’ll want to keep the lights on and tissues at hand!
