PSA: Discover Netflix's secret codes to access all its horror movies and series.
You can even search by subgenre.
Navigating through the vast library of Netflix can be overwhelming. However, there is a solution that can make finding specific content easier: Netflix's secret codes. This feature dates back to 2007, when the platform was just starting as a DVD rental service. At that time, they implemented a tagging system to categorize movies and shows, a system that is still in use today.
The codes are essentially shortcuts that allow users to quickly access specific categories of content. To use them, you simply need to add the corresponding code to a URL that starts with 'https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/'.
In the horror genre, known for its versatility in merging with other styles, there is a wide variety of subgenres.
