Suggested Anime for Halloween 2017

[PictureGuy]

I remember somebody starting a thread like this last year -- about two days before Halloween. This year let's not wait until the last minute. Are there any anime series or movies you saw within the past year suitable for Halloween?

Last year I remember mentioning Monster. A Japanese doctor living in Germany is suspected of being a killer. He must go on the run to find the real psychopath, discovering the dark underbelly of Europe. No monsters or supernatural beings here. Just a real human with no morality, a talent for psychology, and a taste for death.

Also last year, I mentioned Perfect Blue. This is a great movie to show at your Halloween party. Not just a classic thriller, but a real mind f-ck with a girl about to go insane.

But this year I would like to add Ajin: Demi-Human. Immortals, a psychotic killer, and a cold, cold world. There are two seasons to this series, with a third reportedly on its way. How do you stop a homicidal maniac, who in addition to being a nice guy, can't die?

You got any?

I often find that gore and violence sometimes overtake the horror. It worked in Ajin, but it didn't work in Hellsing Ultimate. The later is a bloodfest for the sake of being a bloodfest.

But tell me more about Corpse Party.

Well 9 friends gather in their high school at night to bid farewell to a friend, they perform a ritual for them to remain friends forever using small paper charms shaped like dolls. However they perform it wrong and are now trapped in an alternate dimension with vengeful ghosts of the past, they have to work together to escape.

I have to keep that one in mind. On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being a happy place and 10 being complete and utter anguish, how would you rate the darkness level?

Overall?

7 it's extremely gory and violent, the story is good for a ghost story, and the animation was great.
