Horror had a great time in the last 12 months of the year, a period in which titles that would become classics were released and rekindled passion for the genre. That’s why we now look at some of the most terrifying films that 2022 has left that you shouldn’t miss if you like to be scared, stay behind your pillow or enjoy a creepy story.

Although it hasn’t had much success and hasn’t been as popular as the other titles on the list, ‘You Won’t Be Alone’ is one of the scariest movies of 2022 for a simple reason, its history. Directed by Goran Stolevksi and starring Noomir Rapace, the story features a young 19th century witch who accidentally kills a farmer, and she becomes him to experience life from another body.

Don’t be fooled by its campaign centered around the love story of Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell’s characters, “Bones and All” is one of the creepiest movies of 2022. Luca Guadagnino presents the story of a young woman who tries to survive and finds the love of her life in a homeless man who arouses hidden feelings in her.
