That’s a very insightful observation about Coraline. Sometimes something might not be overtly frightening but can leave us feeling unsettled just like you said. This can happen with a lot of stories aimed for children. If you’ve never read the Coraline book look out for that feeling if you ever do.

I hope you found some good options to check out and thanks for reading!

Thanks Rissi! I appreciate it. 😀

Some of the top choices from this list. I hope you enjoy them.

Coraline was a weird one for me. I didn’t find it that scary while watching it, but after I’d finished I found myself in that very watchful state where you notice every tiny sound. I found it really charming, but it got deep into my head. Which shows it’s a great film, of course. I’d say anyone whose childhood was very frightening, especially if, like with me, that was partly because of their mother, might want to be cautious about seeing it.
