**Hannibal (2011-2013)**
*Hannibal* has set the bar for psychological horror series. Discouraged over the little to no evidence that leads to the closure of high-profile murder cases, Special Agent Jack Crawford recruits Will Graham, a crime professor at the FBI Academy. But there is a catch: Will is able to recreate how the crime happened in his head, allowing him to understand how the killer thinks.
Because of the consequences on Will’s psyche, Crawford pairs him with a renowned psychiatrist, Hannibal Lecter. Little do they know, Hannibal harbors a sinister secret that will end up shattering everything they believe in.
*Hannibal* has it all: a chilling storyline, gory imagery, and relatable characters. However, some scenes might make you question why you started watching it in the first place.
