No Elfen Lied?
So no elfen lied?….. wtf why is that shit anime Another put higher than Higurashi??….. WTF BERSERK ISNT A HORROR YOU DUMBASSES
i loveeeeee tokyo ghoul but even being a super fan of it i will say its more drama then horror
yep seen them all 🙂
The tone of the narrator is too light-hearted for a list like this one… I would do it with a deep(er than my normal pitch), mechanical monotone.
I'm surprised Elfen Lied did not make it into the list.
crunchyroll used to rock but not anymore
are these movies or series?
Parasyte is Not SCARY!!!! it's gross
gore doesn't make something horror. gore isn't scary. where's yami shibai? ghost hunt? things that are actually intended to scare people and not just splash blood everywhere.
The scariest part were the clips with English dub
This… is a highly questionable list.
Does anyone know the Anime Claymore?
I don't know what to pick they are all so great
Monster should've been 1 :/
What Happens When Theres An Anime About Jason Voorhees Going On A Rampage Killing Anyone In His Way?..Tell Me Guys
How can you call these horror?
rip deadman wonderland, well only the manga was good anyways
Shiki is top 3
why is tokyo ghoul here
I think ghost hunt should've been on the list. Good anime.
Nothing will be eclipse terror like Johan Liebert. "MONSTER"
The problem is that there's a big difference between something being scary and just gory. I wouldn't call that "horror". I can't honestly say I've ever been scared by anime, but I have been grossed out by some. I mean, Hellsing Ultimate is just over the top violence, not anything scary (and that's fine).
More like "Top 10 Gore anime". This isn't real horror.
hellfire is a "honorable mention" WTF
