It’s very formulaic but supernatural isn’t true horror, it just copies the horror aesthetic and is a detective show pretty much

Not really bro, unless you count jump scares. i’ve seen some indie ones or Japanese ones that leave a sense of dread in me though. A dark song is an example

I like the chasing part where they get closer and closer cause thats the only thing that scares me.

Also i saw a series where a guy hung himself in his moms clothes and sniffed panties while jerking off, it was allegedly horror but i suppose more of clickbait. very good would recommend.
