The X-Files, for all its later imitators (Fringe, Supernatural) was a unique show. One aspect of that uniqueness was the way it blended myth arc episodes about alien abductions, alien invasions, and government conspiracies with Monster of the Week episodes about paranormal criminals. These usually had a pretty strong thread of horror running through them and dealt with some classic “horror” creatures – vampires, werewolves, and ghosts, among others. They also devoted a large number of episodes to serial killers with varying degrees of paranormal abilities, since Mulder and Scully were FBI agents and a murder spree was the most obvious reason to put them on a case.
And so, for Halloween, we present the 13 scariest hours of The X-Files for your viewing pleasure!
