Free Horror Titles on Crackle in January

As the holiday decorations are packed away and the cheerful tidings of the season fade into memory, a sinister chill lingers in the air, casting a shadow over the once-joyful atmosphere. The icy grip of January tightens, plunging the world into a deep, dark freeze. In this frigid new year, Crackle unveils a collection of bone-chilling tales that intertwine the cold and the macabre.

Amid this frozen landscape, the weather outside proves to be frightful, when a mischievous-looking snowman comes to town, only this frosted figure doesn’t come with peace or good tidings. This Jack Frost arrives with a heart as cold as ice and a soul fueled by vengeance. This is no fairy-tale snowman—this is a monster born from the DNA of a serial killer, hell-bent on settling a score in a gruesome winter rampage.

If the thought of sentient snow isn’t enough to keep you indoors this January, perhaps the sheer terror of Ice Sharks will. When a group of scientists discover that the ocean floor has become a hunting ground for a new breed of sharks, their white paradise quickly turns into an icy tomb. As the station sinks into the depths, survival becomes a battle against not only nature’s fury but also the relentless hunger of the deep. If you thought the frigid Arctic waters were safe from predators, think again, Ice Sharks proves that no waters are safe from the ravenous maneaters of the ocean.

For those who still wish to brave the harsh elements this month, Frost offers a haunting tale of survival, when a young woman and her estranged father are forced to battle the elements and their fractured relationship when they find themselves stranded on a remote mountainside during a winter storm.
