1) The Haunting of Hill House
This supernatural horror-drama TV show is one of the few shows that captures your attention from the first minute of the pilot episode, all the way to the 10th episode. Based on Shirley Jackson’s novel of the same name, it showcases the paranormal phenomena leading to tragedies encountered by the Crain family. It follows up with them after 26 years and shows how the house they used to live in (Hill House) still affects their daily lives.
Ape-Rating: With a follow-up series called The Haunting Of Bly Manor, we’re rating it a 11/10 for the chills!
2) Squid Game
If you haven’t heard about this spectacular record-breaking Korean show, you are definitely living under a rock! The show’s premise is based on an unknown game with hundreds of players in need of money participating for the big prize money, except there’s a small catch. There can only be one winner and everyone else dies!
Ape-Rating: With 9 riveting episodes and high stakes every second, start today! 10/10 from our side for this one!
3) You
You! Yes, you! If you haven’t watched You, you’re missing out on so much!
