Fortunately, a bunch of shows have managed to be pretty good, bringing new takes on the genre and delivering scares in a way that cinema could never do. There have been a lot of these shows over the years, and though many are good, some are just downright amazing.

Fans of horror movies usually flock to these shows in droves to satisfy their hankering for fear.

And Buffy at only #6? Pfft.

Hard to read list. Never got to one I watched until Supernatural. Recently binged Outer limits with 30 episodes in season one. At 70 I have watched many horror and SciFi. Not many of these but I did do Charmed. Loved Kolxhak when it first came out.
