Examples of supernatural horror films
With the advent of motion pictures and television, screen depictions of ghosts, spirits, demons or any other supernatural being became common and spanned a variety of genres.
Children’s benevolent ghost stories became popular, such as Casper the Friendly Ghost, created in the 1930s and appearing in comics, animated cartoons, and eventually the 1995 feature film Casper.
Sentimental depictions were more popular in early cinema than horror, and include the 1947 film The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, which was later adapted to television with a successful 1968-70 TV series.Genuine psychological horror films from this period include 1944's The Uninvited and 1945's Dead of Night.
Popularised in such films as the 1984 comedy Ghost Busters, ghost hunting became a hobby for many who formed ghost hunting societies to explore reportedly haunted places. The ghost hunting theme has been featured in reality television series such as Ghost Hunters and Most Haunted.
The 1990s saw a return to classic “gothic” ghosts, whose dangers were more psychological than physical. Examples of films from this period include 1999’s The Sixth Sense and 2001’s The Others.Asian cinema has been adept at producing horror films about ghosts, such as the 1998 Japanese film Ring(remade in America as The Ring in 2002), and the Pang brothers' 2002 film The Eye.
