TV Talk Rec Fest: Mysteries or Horror

Various color glass balloons captioned TV Talk Rec Fest


Welcome to day 5 of Rec Fest! Today please recommend shows which could be considered mysteries or horror. While these two formats can be quite different there may also be overlaps at times. Mysteries might include procedurals, detective series, or dramas which center on a mystery which runs for the whole series or on a season by season basis. Horror often includes supernatural events but may also overlap with the suspense genre where dread and fear predominate.

Please include in your recs the following information:

Show Title:
Audience Rating: Young Children/All Ages/Teen and Up/Mature Content
Warnings: (Could include gory content, raunchy situations, explicit sex, offensive content, etc.)
Length of Episodes: (30 minutes/1 hour/Other)
Length of Series: (Number of seasons or number of episodes)
Why you recommend it: (What draws you to it? What niche does it fill/mood is it good for?)

You can copy and paste the following code into your comment.



Feel free to include any other information you’d like, such as what year(s) the show was originally broadcast, standout cast members, or what other shows it may connect to or be like. You can also include outside links to Wikipedia, Fanlore, IMDB, your favorite review etc. which contain more show information.

If someone else has already recced a show you were planning to rec, please include your own rec as well! People have different takes on shows and it can also help people if they see a number of people find a show to be a must-watch.

If you have questions about what to post or how the Rec Fest will run, please ask them at this link, not in comments below

In looking up reviews for my mystery rec, I stumbled on one mentioning The Guest! I guess this was a sign that it belongs on my to-watch list. Thanks for recommending a foreign language show! :D

Nice! I really love it, and I hope you do too! I don't know where you might find it online--it used to be on Netflix, but they took it down. If you have trouble finding it, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
