Spooky season is just around the corner, it's clear we're all going for the slightly more heart-racing stuff when it comes to finding something good to watch.
From Ryan Murphy's extremely harrowing series all about the chilling Menendez brothers murder case all the way through to the 'absolutely devastating' new true-crime doc, Into the Fire: The Lost Daughter - it's clear that Netflix is the go-to place if you're looking for something a little heavier than MAFS...
One throwback series, however, has left viewers still 'unable to sleep for weeks after first hitting the streaming giant back in 2021.

In fact, many are still not over the 'biggest plot twist ever' but, nonetheless, are ready for a second season.
The six-part limited series in question follows the life of a single mother who enters a world of twisted mind games when she begins an affair with her psychiatrist boss while secretly befriending his mysterious wife.
Based on the 2017 novel by Sarah Pinborough of the same name, the series boasts a star-studded cast including the likes of Kiss Me First's Simona Brown, Death on the Nile actor Tom Bateman, Eve Hewson from The Perfect Couple and Game of Thrones' Robert Aramayo.
If you hadn't already guessed it, the series is - of course - Behind Her Eyes and Netflix viewers haven't stopped gushing over it since its release.
Check out the official trailer here:
Without spoiling it for you - let's just say the plot twist is pretty wild.
One sofa critic asked on social media: "What's a movie that had the BIGGEST PLOT TWIST EVER and it still blows your mind just thinking about it ????"
Naming Behind Her Eyes as the clear answer, another answered: "When I tell you I couldn't sleep for like a week."
A third quipped: "I swear!!!!! I have never seen such a crazy ending I was like WAIT WHATTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!"
"I STILL think of this one," confessed a fourth while a fifth declared: "Can bet that no one saw that coming, its ending was so unexpected & shocking."
A sixth chirped: "Behind Her Eyes is one of my favourites! I wish I could watch it again for the 1st time. Seriously never saw it coming!"
"Loved it can’t wait for part two," penned a seventh while another echoed: "I loved it… I watched the whole thing in like a day… such a great twist!"
However, even with all the gory scenes and heart-racing moments - it's clear that one of the 'biggest plot twists' was actually to do with who Eve Hewson's famous father is.
A final Facebook user joked: "The biggest plot twist is that Bono from U2 is her dad."
Well, that's my weekend plans sorted!
Behind Her Eyes is currently available to stream on Netflix.
