There are a lot of free streaming services these days—but precious few are ad-free. All hail Kanopy, which you can access with a public library card through participating institutions, and which boats an excitingly vast array of movies and TV shows, including tons of recent horror releases.
Sign-up is a breeze; within two minutes, I had 12 “tickets” from my local library in my account. Kanopy doesn’t offer unlimited bingeing—most movies require two tickets and have a 72-hour viewing window (most TV series are five tickets per season, and you get 14-21 days to watch). But your ticket supply resets each month, and again: you’re spending zero dollars and sitting through zero ads.
Here are 10 recent horror movies you can find on Kanopy—and this is barely scratching the surface.
