The Paranormal, a scary and intriguing subject. 

Last year saw a lot of movies being released, some of the paranormal based and today we will count down the best paranormal movies of 2020. 

We are attracted to the paranormal, perhaps it is in our nature, perhaps we like to be scared, perhaps our nature is to seek answers to the unknown. We may not get these answers in life and for some that are fine, for others life beyond death needs to have an answer. 

Personally, I know I will get answers, and even if it is a question always on my mind, it’s not a problem for me. 

We even attribute abilities we can not understand to being of paranormal origins.  

Today we will countdown the Best Top 25 Paranormal movies of 2020:
