Bone Chilling Movies To Watch On Diwali If You Have Run Out Of Horror Stories To Narrate

Diwali night is believed to be the most bone-chilling time of the year. We have often heard from the elderly how this night is powered with supernatural energies which increases the chances of one having a paranormal encounter. Women are directed to not let their hair down as evil grabs them through their hair. Additionally, it is advised to not wear fragrances as spirits are believed to be attracted to scents.

Imagine that on a night like that, you have a sleepover with your cousins or friends and decide to watch these bone-curdling flicks.

1. Evil Dead (2013)

A movie that won’t let you sleep the night you watch it and many nights after that, Evil Dead is not only a movie consisting of the best jumpscares but also mentally damaging scenes. With gallons of blood-painted scenes and a gloomy set-up, this movie paradoxically commands more attention from its viewers.

2. Train To Busan (2016)

If you want a break from movies with the usual topic of an evil ghost possessing a body to take revenge for their past life, then Train To Busan is your pick. You can experience a zombie apocalypse in this film and find all your childhood horrors of the flesh-eating creatures getting resurrected.

3. 1920 (2008)

A brilliant approach by Bollywood to create a horror film like it should be made. Despite being a typical story of possession with an evil spirit who has a revenge story, 1920 has probably given Bollywood its best ghost ever. With the lead actors’ natural acting, the movie has attained its deserving heights.

4. Insidious (2010)

What is a more crippling feeling than losing control over your body entirely and staying stuck in another dimension where you can only see ghostly faces? A film that is more than a nightmare for those who have sleep paralysis, Insidious delves deep into the world of our nightmares and commits to scarring us for eternity.

5. Bhool Bhulaiya (2007)

While many have conflicting opinions about the subject of the film being related to psychology and not paranormal activities, it doesn’t change the fact that Bhool Bhulaiya has frightened us immensely. It is, after all, not pleasant to know that a woman loses herself when she inhabits a dead dancer in her mind and gradually desires to become her.
