Picture: Netflix
Halloween season is here once again in 2025, and thankfully, Netflix’s horror collection is looking in much better shape than in recent years. Given that Netflix’s library in most regions has swelled to around 7,500 titles, both movies and series. You may be looking for a way to sift through all of Netflix’s horror library this year. Thankfully, some of the secret category codes will be of use.
Important note: These codes currently only work on Netflix’s website, and the streamer has dropped support for entering the code in the search box in recent years. You can find our full Netflix category code list here. Example titles are available on Netflix US – other regions may vary.
