Hubie Halloween (2020)
This Netflix original starring Adam Sandler, Kevin James & Julie Bowen looks like an interesting mix of comedy & suspense.
The Open House (2018)
Another Netflix original movie. The slogan is “You can’t lock out what’s already inside.” Reminds me of the old movie when a Stranger Calls that was in the house the entire time! In this movie, a teenager and his mother find themselves besieged by threatening forces when they move into a new house.
The Perfection (2018)
Perhaps the most suspenseful and shocking of all Netflix original films currently available, this movie stars Alison Williams & Logan Browning.

Directed by Time Burton, Johnny Depp stars as detective Ichabod Crane, sent to a small town to investigate a series of beheadings.
A Haunted House (2013)
If you are a fan of Scary Movie, you will enjoy this spook making fun of scary movies starring Marlon Wayans & Cedric the Entertainer. Malcolm and Kisha move into their dream home, but soon learn a demon also resides there. When Kisha becomes possessed, Malcolm – determined to keep his sex life on track – turns to a priest, a psychic, and a team of ghost-busters for help.
Eli (2019)
An 11-year-old boy is checked into a clinic (or is it a haunted house?), where he’s supposed to receive an experimental treatment for an auto-immune disorder.

A popular adult game turns deadly.

Two parents think they’ve left their troubles behind when they move out of a haunted house. Turns out, they brought the problem with them—and it’s their son.
