Halloween is creeping up, and now is the perfect excuse for a spooky, movie marathon! Here are our top film and show picks to enjoy this spooky season:

The Ghost of Greville Lodge

If you’re looking for a ghost story that’s more about atmosphere than cheap jump scares, The Ghost of Greville Lodge is a must-watch. It follows a teenage orphan who comes to stay at his great-uncle’s country manor – and soon realises that the house holds more than just memories. Locked doors, mysterious noises, and echoes of a tragic past make for a perfectly eerie and captivating family drama.
