October 16, 2025 - It’s a lot to drop anyone straight into Japanese horror, let alone a child, but a good entry point for some serious scares (and one of the library’s most popular choices) is Gore Verbinski’s The Ring.

r/horror on Reddit: Horror movies for pre teens.
May 20, 2023 -
Hello!
My kid has recently grown into liking horror movies. We've watched a few (Megan, the visit, 1408, stuff like that). Any suggestions on a good one that's not too too gory or has too much sex in it? (They want to watch Friday the 13th, but that's way too many on the horny teenagers 😅). Anything supernatural or anything like that would be good. Any suggestions would help me with mor options!
Thanks in advance!
Ended up watching "Orphan". Big hit! Thanks everyone for all the suggestions and I will be adding most to the future list. We tend to movie night on Fridays so now we have a variety of suggestions. Thank you all so much!

Scary (But Not-Too-Scary) Movies For Teens and Tweens In 2025
October 31, 2025 - I love a good movie marathon and binge, but the list of Disney Halloween movies isn’t quite cutting it for the tween and teens this year.

I was the kid watching Freddie and Jason at a way too young age (sorry, Mom and Dad!). There’s something that a jump scare does to you that can’t be replaced by a fun, coordinated dance number!

12 Non-Gory Scary Movies To Get Kids Excited About The Genre
May 17, 2024 - This Tim Burton-directed horror movie is rated R for some graphic violence and brief nudity, so it may only be appropriate for older teens. ... My favorite of M. Night Shyamanlan's filmography, Signs, follows a family living on a Pennsylvania farm who are experiencing strange occurrences. As crop circles appear in their fields, they realize they may not be alone and must protect themselves from an alien invasion. It's rated PG-13, making it a good option for teens and tweens.
