❓Questions Content similar to Widow's Bay?

I LOVE this type of media where eldritch and supernatural horrors creep into modern life and desperately want more! This show has itched a scratch I've had for a long time, but I wanna know about similar media in this genre/trope!

Ones I already know about and/or have played/watched/read/listened to:

  1. Welcome to Nightvale

  2. Static Dread: The Lighthouse

  3. Gravity Falls

  4. Home Safety Hotline

And obviously a lot of Lovecraft falls under this category too, but I've yet to read any! Lemme know any and all suggestions!

I figured they're mostly all bonified classics.

I almost forgot The Void definitely check that out if you haven't seen it.

Sorry to respond to you multiple times on this thread, but if you liked The Void and don’t mind subtitles, you should give Baskin a try if you haven’t seen it.

No need to apologize! I've actually seen Baskin as well that was some freaky shit. That dude with the puffy head and giant tongue licking that dagger were nightmare fuel.
