10 Amazing Horror TV Shows With Soul Destroying Endings

This show caused quite a stir, didn’t it?

This dystopian survival horror from South Korea was tense, poignant and deeply unsettling throughout, and given the grim tone of the entire series, viewers waited with bated breath to see the presumably horrible fates that would befall the main cast.

Protagonist Seong Gi-Hun has survived the horrific title game, but after everything that happened to him whilst playing, his victory hardly seems worth it. The show jumps ahead one year to see Gi-Hun unable to even touch the money he won; so utterly traumatised by the ordeal that he cannot bring himself to reap the benefits of his efforts.

After losing most of the cast by now, audiences can’t help but wonder, like Gi-Hun himself, what the point of all of this was. When Oh Il-Nam reveals it was simply entertainment for rich people, a bitter taste is left in our mouths. It only gets worse, as we see that the game is still continuing, as desperation continues to push people to do the unthinkable.

The last few moments of the final episode add to the intrigue and overall mystery, but viewers may have to prepare for the worst if the grim tone of the finale is anything to go by.
