The 10 Best horror movies on Netflix right now, in case you’re already done with holiday cheer

It usually starts at the end of November but every year it seems to be happening earlier and earlier. The non-stop Christmas music on your local radio stations, the over-the-top decorations, and the never ending crowds everywhere you go. It’s happening — the holidays are here! For some this truly is the most wonderful time of year but for others, it can feel like the makings of a horror movie classic. There’s only so much holiday cheer one person can take before they find themselves suffering for a case of “If-I-hear-another-Mariah-Carey-Christmas-song-I’ll-just-explode” syndrome.
