Not so sure how I feel about this list…

@Apocryphiliac My husband who hates horror has seen 5 of those and loved them all. So I think yeah, it's a good way to ease into horror!
@Myana Wow, no kidding? Well, fair enough then! I kinda thought The Witch and Midsommar were pretty scary…
@Apocryphiliac In college I minored in the history of the witchcraft trials. I adored The Witch. It was a perfect example of what people believed.
And I think that's one way that horror movies can help people understand history. Modern people find it hard to understand witch accusers because we know they were wrong. Horror removes that surety; in a horror movie anything can happen. Films like The Witch and The Bell Witch let you actually get into our ancestors' heads, I think.
@Myana I 100% agree with you. Have you ever seen Witchfinder General? A classic Vincent Price film…
@Apocryphiliac I have not! A big hole in my classic horror list!
