4. “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” (1975)
Married couple Brad and Janet are stuck with a flat tire during a storm and discover the spooky mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter , a transvestite scientist.

9. “Child’s Play” (1988)
This 1988 story kept us up at night when we were children, and every time we saw a shadow down the hall, that meant, that Chucky was there, ready to attack. “Child’s Play” is a one of a kind horror film to watch during the Halloween season.

10. “A Nightmare on Elm Street” (1984)
