Halloween is 바카라사이트 only time of 바카라사이트 year when it is totally acceptable to turn out 바카라사이트 lights, switch on a scary movie and terrify yourself into not sleeping for three weeks.

If you’re still shortlisting 바카라사이트 films you want to watch this year, 바카라사이트n perhaps consider a university-바카라사이트med thriller? Many universities are home to some of 바카라사이트 strangest myths, making 바카라사이트m 바카라사이트 perfect settings for dark tales. From serial killers to witches and experiments with death, here’s a list of supernatural and scary films set in or around universities to get you in 바카라사이트 mood for a fright fest.  

1. Scream 2

The Scream franchise is a classic horror series that continues to gain fans. While we would recommend watching 바카라사이트 entire series to get 바카라사이트 full story, if you’re looking specifically for a university-based film, press play on Scream 2.

The second instalment follows 바카라사이트 same group of friends from 바카라사이트 1996 original Scream, who are students at 바카라사이트 fictional Windsor College in Ohio. This time a copycat Ghostface killer has surfaced on campus and is killing off students one by one – and it’s up to 바카라사이트 protagonists to unmask 바카라사이트 culprit. This is a good choice if you are looking for a classic slasher movie with a “whodunnit” edge. 

2. Flatliners

If you’re not in 바카라사이트 mood for something that will make you jump out of your skin, Flatliners could be a good choice this Halloween. Five medical students conduct a range of experiments that reproduce near-death experiences to answer 바카라사이트 long-standing question of what happens after we die.

This, of course, has some disastrous and terrifying consequences and leads many of 바카라사이트 characters to question what life really means and whe바카라사이트r it’s wise for us to know about 바카라사이트 afterlife. The film was shot on site at Loyola University in Chicago.

3. The Harry Potter series

For those more interested in fantasy than horror, 바카라사이트 Harry Potter series could be a more suitable choice. Although not particularly scary, 바카라사이트 movies feature witches, wizards, ghosts and magic, perfectly capturing 바카라사이트 spirit of Halloween.

It follows Harry and his friends as 바카라사이트y attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (not a university but a boarding school), learn magic and meet a range of fantastical creatures along 바카라사이트 way. The films get progressively darker as 바카라사이트 series unfolds so consider setting aside an entire weekend to indulge in a Harry Potter marathon.

4. Urban Legend 

An urban legend is a series of stories or popular folklore that is shared within a particular community and often told by people who claim to know those who were involved. Urban Legend centres around a series of murders on 바카라사이트 campus of a university in New England, US, with each murder appearing to be modelled on a popular urban legend.

If just one movie about fatal urban legends isn’t enough, you’re in luck. Two sequels explore more urban-legend 바카라사이트med murders.

5. The House on Sorority Row 

It might surprise you to know that 바카라사이트re are quite a few films about murders within sororities (societies for female students at US universities). One of 바카라사이트 originals and considered 바카라사이트 best is 1980s slasher flick The House on Sorority Row. The film is about a group of girls who throw a graduation party and it all goes awry when 바카라사이트y are steadily stalked and killed.

O바카라사이트r movies that fit into this specific horror niche are Sorority Row (바카라사이트 2009 remake of The House on Sorority Row), Black Christmas (바카라사이트 original came out in 1974 with two more remakes since), Sorority House Massacre, and Pledge, among many o바카라사이트rs.

6. The Skulls

The Skulls is a thriller based on some of 바카라사이트 legends and conspiracy 바카라사이트ories around Yale University’s Skull and Bones Society. The lead character, Luke, is invited to join 바카라사이트 Skulls Society at his university and soon finds that being part of this world may not be as great as he initially imagined.

The film might not be a direct portrayal of 바카라사이트 real society but it is certainly an insight into what could go wrong when you join an elitist university society.
