I Still Know What You Did Last Summer is a frequent recommendation, and with good reason. The entire spooky vibe of the film is made more terrifying by the storms. Urban Legend is another excellent watch in any weather, but some of the legends have to do with rain and dark weather, making it even spookier.

From the bloody to the horrifying, these movies pair best with thunder rolling in and rain hitting your windows, but don’t worry, it’s not like the freaks come out at night or anything. You’ll be perfectly safe!
