After all, movies aren't the only unique way to usher in Halloween.
Kick off spooky season with some of the scariest TV episodes that are available to stream now.
If you dare, that is!
Here are the best, most nightmarish episodes that will make you want to keep the lights on during All Hallows' Eve.
IT: Welcome to Derry season one, The Pilot
Not many series have managed to deliver as shocking an opening season as HBO's It: Welcome to Derry.
The first episode from the TV adaptation of Stephen King's iconic novel surprises everyone within the first few moments – and from there, things only get worse!
And if the beginning wasn't enough to prove that nobody is safe in Derry, the last 15 minutes might be the bloodiest and most hauntingly devastating moments in TV history.
And spoiler alert: Pennywise wasn't even introduced yet – if that doesn't scare you, what will?
It: Welcome to Derry season one is now streaming on HBO Max.
Stranger Things season four, The Hellfire Club
This groundbreaking sci-fi horror show has had its fair share of disturbing scenes, including Will Byers' abduction and Barbara Holland and Bob Newby's gruesome deaths.
Just when we thought we had seen it all, enter season four, which introduced the show's most formidable villain, Vecna.
The fourth season's debut episode took a page out of an '80s horror film with its eerie tone and teenage nostalgia.
But it isn't until the final moments that viewers truly understand just how horrifying Vecna is.
Plus, Eddie Munson, played by Joseph Quinn, lets out the most bloodcurdling scream that sends shivers down spines to this day!
All five seasons of Stranger Things are available on Netflix.
The Haunting of Hill House season one, The Bent-Neck Lady
The Haunting of Hill House has been dubbed one of the greatest horror series of all time – and rightfully so.
Loosely based on the 1959 novel of the same name by Shirley Jackson, the supernatural thriller follows five adult siblings and their estranged father, who are all still suffering from the paranormal experiences at Hill House.
The 10-episode show was a frightening ride from start to finish, but episode five, The Bent-Neck Lady, is a standout.
Eleanor "Nell" Crain had been haunted by the ghastly figure since childhood, yet once she found happiness in adulthood, the nightmare seemed to stop.
Nell is again tormented by the disfigured specter after tragedy strikes – and when she seeks the truth, the twist that follows will leave viewers unsettled.
The Haunting of Hill House is on Netflix.
