As opposed to a wondrous magical world, Netflix's "Fear Street" trilogy, based on R.L. Stine's series of the same name, is about a curse set on the downtrodden town of Shadyside. While "Fear Street" isn't as cozy as "Harry Potter," you'll get your fix of witches and monstrous creatures. The first film follows a teenager named Deena, who, while dealing with her complicated love life, tries to undo the curse that the witch Sarah Fier (allegedly) cast on Shadyside. Just a fair warning: the Fear Street trilogy is very much a slasher, so prepare for gruesome kill scenes. Each installments takes place during a different time period, each offering more backstory behind the curse, so get ready lore-heavy ride.
