About this list
Reaching for the dead assumes you can let go of their hand afterward. Horror knows better. The séance, the board, the summoning ritual all open a channel meant to be brief — and the genre delights in the moment it won't close, the thing that answers and decides to stay. This is a list for films where an attempt to contact the dead opens a door that can't be shut.
