Movie reviews for movies (really short films) made in 1896. Dates from IMDB.
1. “The Haunted Castle,” directed by Georges Melies (10/10)
The closest thing to an actual horror film yet (made a little later than the below “horror” movies).
2. “A Nightmare,” directed by Georges Melies (9/10)
A really early horror film.
3. “A Terrible Night,” directed by Georges Melies (8/10)
Another really early “horror” film.
