Watching a horror movie has its own thrill. Horror films are packed with suspense and fear, and some are so terrifying that watching them alone can make you break into a sweat. If you accidentally watch a horror film at night, even going to the washroom becomes a challenge, and sleeping peacefully is nearly impossible.

Nowadays, comedy elements are often added to horror films, which takes the focus away from genuine scares and leans more toward entertainment. But earlier, horror films were purely meant to frighten.

In this context, we’re going to tell you about a horror film that you should never watch alone, not even by mistake, because it has been rated as the scariest film on Google.

Last year, horror comedies like Stree 2 and Munjya entertained audiences, but the film we’re talking about was released 51 years ago. Even today, it is considered the scariest film in the world. A quick Google search for “scariest film” often brings up its name.

This film is also believed to be cursed. Released in 1973, The Exorcist was banned in several countries. This horror film is based on a novel by William Peter Blatty. It’s said that many viewers were left traumatized after watching it, leading to bans in Ireland, England, and Scotland.

On IMDb, The Exorcist holds an impressive rating of 8.2. It features a truly terrifying story. It centers on a young, innocent girl who becomes possessed by an evil spirit. Her mother, a well-known actress, is left distraught by her daughter’s disturbing behavior. In desperation, she turns to a priest to perform an exorcism and free her daughter from the possession. Every scene in the film is deeply unsettling and packed with horror.

It’s worth noting that several strange incidents occurred during the shooting of the film. A fire broke out on set, and several crew members tragically lost their lives. When the film was released in theaters, multiple viewers reportedly suffered heart attacks due to its terrifying content.
