Horror Movies With All of the Scares and None of the Gore

Stonehearst Asylum

Stonehearst Asylum is loosely based on the 1845 short story "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether" by Edgar Allen Poe. The film follows a new employee at a mental hospital who becomes attracted to one of his colleagues, but he soon becomes aware of a new and horrifying change in staff.

The Lodgers

Orphaned twins Rachel and Edward are bound to their home by a family curse. Forced to live by the rules of a haunting lullaby, the twins must be in their rooms by midnight, can never be apart, and may not let any outsiders into the estate. If the rules are broken, a sinister presence that lurks in the house after midnight will come to the surface.
