Though it didn’t reach the same level of popularity as shows like *American Horror Story* or *Scream*, *Harper’s Island* uniquely blended classic slasher elements with a continuing storyline, something you don’t often see in today’s streaming thrillers. Every episode is genuinely terrifying, with characters truly dying – no misleading scares. Even after fifteen years, one particular death remains incredibly shocking and is considered a turning point in the series. *Harper’s Island* is a very dark and unsettling show, featuring a truly deranged and compelling killer.
