What I've Recently Been Watching On Netflix

Anyone who knows me knows I love watching TV. I spent most of my childhood addicted to the Disney channel and BBC Three (who remembers Coming Of Age?). Obviously, my taste has changed since then and like most of you, the majority of my evenings consist of a massive cuppa and a good old Netflix binge. I've recently discovered some new series and a couple of films that I really enjoyed so I thought I would share them with you! 

The Haunting Of Hill House | Now I haven't watched many Netflix series but when everyone started talking about this I knew I had to see what all the fuss was about. I'm constantly watching horror films but always left thinking well that was a bit shit but this show will have you sleeping with the lights on! It's about a family that moves into a new house and almost straight away supernatural incidents start occurring but they don't stop after they leave. If you've been looking for something that will have you on the edge of your seat (and peaking through your hands) you need to give this a go! 

The Vampire Diaries | Before you say anything I know I'm about ten years late to the party but I recently started watching this and as you can probably guess I am completely obsessed! It's such a great teenage drama and I think the cast, story and layout of the show are just fab! I finished Pretty Little Liars quite a while ago and this has followed it perfectly! I've only just started season 3 so I have a long way to go yet but at the moment I'm watching about five episodes at a time because it's so addictive! Also in case you're a VD fan and are wondering I'm team Damon all the way *starts fanning self*! 

Apostle | Hubby and I stumbled across this and thought it looked quite interesting and it actually turned out to be a really good horror. It starts off quite chilled but quickly turns into something really dark and gruesome but it's so well done! It's set on a Welsh island in 1905 which I love and there are definitely some weird twists and moments that'll leave you thinking WTF?! Also, one of the main characters is played by Michael Sheen (I totally fangirled!) so I highly recommend watching it! 

Gerald's Game | This is another Netflix Original and like THOHH it had some really good reviews when it first came out. It's based on the Stephen King novel and it turned out to be quite different from what I was expecting! It contains some mature themes (just a heads up) but the suspense will have you glued to the screen! It's one of those films that starts off quite happy and optimistic but by the end, you feel like you won't make it out alive! 

Have you watched any of these picks recently?
