The 10 Best Horror Comedy Shows of All Time, Ranked
Feb 8, 2025
Horror comedy occupies a delightfully strange corner of television, where chills meet laughter. Whether poking fun at haunted house tropes, reveling in absurd gore, or blending supernatural and slapstick, these shows offer a twisted escape from reality. The best ones don’t just mock the macabre—they embrace it, spinning spooky scenarios into wickedly entertaining narratives filled with eccentric characters and bizarre situations.
Whether the family-friendly thrills of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, the graphic chainsaw-wielding carnage of or the vampiric adventures of What We Do in the Shadows, the comedy-to-horror ratio varies to appease any viewer. There's something irresistible about watching the peculiar coexist with the mundane—a zombie solving crimes in iZombie or a gothic family living among conformists in The Addams Family. These are the best horror comedy shows, ranked by how well they embody the hallmarks of both horror and comedy.
10 'The Addams Family' (1964–1966)
Created by David Levy
The Addams are a delightfully eccentric, wealthy, and loving family with a passion for the macabre and supernatural. Led by the charming Gomez (John Astin) and his elegant wife Morticia (Carolyn Jones), they live with their children Wednesday (Lisa Loring) and Pugsley (Ken Weatherwax), along with peculiar relatives, butler Lurch (Ted Cassidy) and the disembodied hand Thing. Though warm and welcoming, their bizarre lifestyle often confounds outsiders, who are both horrified and fascinated by the Addams' spooky mansion and odd customs.
