Dawson Nyffenegger has been writing ever since he knew how, producing his first unpublished written story at five years old.

TV miniseries are basically one-season shows that are intended to be watched as one long, multi-part movie. The lengths of these miniseries may vary, but they all maintain the basic fundamentals of the format. Of course, as with any form of media, miniseries explore a wide variety of genres, from drama to comedy, and yes, even to horror.

*Availability in US Release Date February 17, 2021 Cast Simona Brown , Eve Hewson , Tom Bateman , Robert Aramayo Seasons 1 14 'The Shining' Directed by Mick Garris The Shining is based on Stephen King's acclaimed novel of the same name. Unlike the 1980 Stanley Kubrick horror movie, the miniseries received support from King himself, and had more of King's direct involvement in the writing process.

The stories aren't the most important part here, because there is actually an overarching narrative going on with the club themselves rather than it being presented as an anthology series. It was initially intended to run for two seasons but was ultimately canceled, so thus remained a miniseries. Horror-wise, it can be kind of intense, as the first episode broke the Guinness World Record for the most scripted jumpscares in a single episode of TV, with a whopping 21 jumpscares.

8 'Swarm' Created by Janine Nabers and Donald Glover Swarm is Donald Glover's foray into the world of horror, and once again, he shows that there is nothing that he can't do. But he's not alone in this, as he works alongside Janine Nabers, the supervising producer of the Watchmen series, to make this project a reality.

This two-part series, much like the novel, follows a young horror fan and an author who team up to save a sleepy New England town from a vampire invasion. Considering how CGI wasn't yet super popular, the movie is impressively freaky, with practical effects that are absolutely haunting. The performances are brilliant, and even if Warner Bros. does decide to release the film adaptation, this series will likely still be regarded as the better adaptation of King's work.
