This is my first time participating in this annual Letterboxd Halloween horror challenge. Through sacrificing time I usually allot for catching up on TV shows, I have managed to finish all entry criteria. Doing this challenge was really fun and eye-opening because more than half of the qualifying entries here I would not have watched on my own initiative, resulting to genuine horror finds and surprises.

All qualifying films were watched and/or rewatched and logged between September 15 to October 31, 2022; and are arranges chronologically in the order of log date.
