TV shows you definitely shouldn't watch alone at night

Featuring ostensibly true ghost stories, each episode follows the same premise. A victim unravels their tale of terror as actors recreate the story on-screen. It's a familiar gimmick, but the show's true strength comes from creating an empathetic bond with audience and storyteller, all while spinning cinematic docudramas. Episodes like season two's "Capitol Theater Haunting" exemplifies the show's scary movie approach, ramping up suspense before splicing in some seriously effective jump scares and creep-out moments. Season four's aptly titled "Demon House" also feels like a condensed but extremely tense version of 1982's The Entity. And for pure nightmare fuel, check out "Suzy Doll." Of course, if the image above freaked you out, then you might want to pass on this particular episode.
