Disney+ is an absolute goldmine of nostalgic classics and modern-day gems. With an equal mix of old school blasts from the past and recent releases, there's no shortage of content to consume. Surprisingly, given the nature of the kinds of things Disney is known for pushing out, there are also a solid amount of spooky offerings to choose from on the House of Mouse's streaming platform.

Horror isn't necessarily what one would call Disney's specialty. However, that does not mean that they're streaming service is lacking in creepy goodies, just that you shouldn't expect anything too terrifying. It's not a bad thing though, as the horror and horror-adjacent flicks they do have are the kind that will make you feel like a kid again. As odd as it is to say, you could consider most of these sort of movies to be almost family friendly, existing for the single purpose of simply giving you a good time.

Anyone around during the early 2000s who was a fan of the Disney Channel should recognize several of the movies on this list. Others are a bit more under the radar. Either way, these are ten horror offering anyone at any age can enjoy.

10. The Black Hole

More science-fiction than all-out horror, The Black Hole's creepy atmosphere and treatment of space pushes the film in a spooky direction. Also, the movie sends a man to literal Hell.

A crew of a deep space exploration ship stumble upon a gigantic, ominous space ship. When they board, it seems to only be inhabited by strange, humanoid robots, that is until they meet the mad scientist in charge of it all who is dead set on flying right into a black hole.

When we're first introduced to the enormous space ship a majority of the film takes place on, everything feels off. There's a sinister sense of menace in the air that sticks around for the first two acts. You won't get any answers until the later half of the movie, but by that time you'll have been thoroughly made uncomfortable.

On top of the atmosphere, there's the general feeling of unease that comes with being faced with the hostility of space. These two things mixed together make for an unsettling, yet fun, retro experience worth having.
