On this episode of Our American Stories, for more than a century, horror movies have found new and terrifying ways to keep us on the edge of our seats. It began with the eerie shadows of German Expressionism and the unforgettable monsters of Universal’s Dracula and Frankenstein. Then came Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho, the supernatural terror of The Exorcist, the slasher craze of the 1970s and 1980s, and eventually the low-budget phenomenon of The Blair Witch Project.

Just in time for Halloween, YouTube creator Matt Castro takes us through the history of horror movies.
