    The spookier, creepier and bloodier the better. Halloween themed is great but it can also be horror themed because they are more available. So I need some suggestions from people if you have them. I did all the Halloween scheduling last year and this was back when we were having at least 3 activities a week so I'm a bit at a loss for new things to watch. Here is our schedule from last year. http://i.imgur.com/M1UTDKy.png

    Be sure to check our MAL before you suggest something.

    Well I was going through what I have watched to come up with some that could be interesting for a horror theme, there is also another movie I haven't yet watched but I am very curious about it considering some of the comments on MAL about it so lets start with that one.
    I know nothing much about Midori Shoujo Tsubaki apart from it is meant to be really weird and kind of harder to find, it could be interesting considering who takes part in these activities of yours. [I also want trustworthy opinions about it]

    Now the stuff from my list that might fit
    Obviously you can and probably should run the 4 OVA eps of Corpse Party, nothing will beat that for a horror series to watch on Halloween
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/15037

    Houkago Midnighters is a kids film revolving around the supernatural element done in a CG style, I really enjoyed it but it ins't particularly creepy or anything. But a living anatomical model, a creature from the back lagoon type monster, painting ghosts and a few other things says it qualifies
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/13935

    Lily C.A.T is not really a horror movie but more sci-fi. It falls under the horror category for its development and wasn't too bad of a watch so that is why I am listing it
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/3258

    The Curse of Kazuo Umezu is an average OVA from 1990 but it features blood and death so it is fitting
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/6276

    Pupa, the terrible adaptation of essentially a guro manga by studio DEEN, monsters, torture, cannibalism, child abuse and all in 3 minute long episodes. Not a good show by anyones standards but hey fitting nonetheless
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/19315

    Terra Formars is a series coming out next season, but luckily for us they gave us a 2 episode OVA series to ease us into the franchise about giant cockroaches that kill humans. Too bad the 2nd OVA doesn't come out until November but the first OVA definitely got me hyped to watch the series
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/22689

    Lastly Psycho Diver is an OVA about a man that can dive into peoples heads to figure out what is wrong with them thanks to the help of technology. This features an idol and a cult. I don't remember too much more about this OVA, but it is listed as horror on MAL and I rated it a 7 once upon a time so I thought why not

    So, do any of these seem like good activities Spor?

    I have to admit the only horror series that I can think of off the top of my head would have to be sort of psychological thrillers. I think Higurashi would probably be a bit much. Unless Hell Girl will suffice? Or something like Boogiepop Phantom? (Didn't really come across as horror for me, but then I ain't afraid of no ghosts). Maybe Ghost Stories or Ghost Hunt?

    No worries Spor, I felt I had to contribute to such an interesting theme. I think these were the only horror movies/OVAs I've really seen, the rest were shorts or series so I hope some of these are more than fitting [Corpse Party is probably the best pick].

    The thread was for movies/movie length things, series might be a bit long to watch for a Halloween event. Although that being said Hell Girl is mostly episodic and could count, Ghost Hunt is split into arcs of a max of 5-ish episodes which can work nicely especially for this theme, and Ghost Stories is also episodic. These could all work depending on how it is handled too, damn I should have looked at episodic series for my first reply.

    All I could find was
    The OVA " Another"
    or Le Portrait de Petit Cossette (done in 3 parts each about 35-38 min long so combined the same as a movie)
    also found

    Demon City Shinjuku which is and older anime (year 1988)

    Definitely a few I can use. I'll make sure to tag you in the next themed thing we do for December.

    Thanks. I'll check some of those out.

    @Supernatural-Knight I suggested series because TMC watched Devil May Cry throughout the month last year.

    Well, series weren't out of the question last year. I just wasn't as busy last year as I am now so it's hard finding time for the stuff. This was our schedule last year. http://i.imgur.com/M1UTDKy.png

    We had 2 series going and multiple movies each week.

    I just can't do series like that anymore. At least not right now. MAYBE I can find time to do one on say Sundays but I have to check some things first.
