Horror cartoon movies

Looking for animated horror movies? Then you've come to the right place. These are the scariest cartoon feature-length films that you'll find anywhere. Not all of these animated horror films are appropriate for kids but you will find some family-friendly animated scary movies such as Frankenweenie , Caroline , and Haunted House, along with some animated ghost movies.

Far too often, animated movies are written off as overly kid-friendly, unsophisticated fluff, when the truth is the medium is capable of telling stories as mature as the most prestigious live-action dramas. As soon as Coraline finds the secret door, the story begins to unfold like a horror film, ramping up its creepy atmosphere and frightening creatures. But the real terror comes the moment Coraline is given her own set of button eyes, to be sewn on by her creepy Other Mother… before she transforms into a giant spider and all hell breaks loose. Adults will enjoy the wit and style. The Last Unicorn skews more towards fantasy, but it still packs enough spooky elements to make it a scary film for kids. Without a doubt, the most frightening for kids was the fiery Red Bull, evil incarnate, with its deep, blood-red color and almost hollow eyes that no doubt inspired countless nightmares.

Animated features are meant to inspire audiences, spin stories that grip our hearts with emotion, leave us laughing, and captivate us with fantastic animation. If there's one thing no child wants from an animated film, it's to be scared, even during the spooky fall season. Yet, as strange as it may sounds, there are animated films out there that do scare audiences.
