Love Widows Bay? Here Are 9 Weird and Wild Supernatural TV Shows to Stream Next
Katie Dippold’s Apple TV original series Widows Bay has officially taken the streaming world by storm in 2026. This perfect blend of small-town horror and dark comedy left us instantly obsessed with characters like Tom, Wyck, and Patricia. While we collectively wait for a second season, you are probably hunting for your next supernatural television obsession.
Instead of recommending obvious classics like Twin Peaks, we have rounded up the best under-the-radar cult shows to stream right now. These picks deliver the perfect dose of spooky mysteries, surreal comedy, and eerie small-town vibes. Here is your ultimate watchlist to survive the Widows Bay withdrawal.
- The Chair Company (Max): Created by Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin, this surreal comedy conspiracy thriller follows a man obsessed with a broken office chair. It matches the bizarre humor of Apple’s hit series perfectly, though it might be too weird for casual viewers.
- Round the Twist (Prime Video): This 1990s Australian cult gem feels like a fever-dream version of The Twilight Zone for kids. It features a family living in a haunted lighthouse facing bizarre supernatural occurrences.
- Midnight Mass (Netflix): If you love Hamish Linklater in Widows Bay, you must watch him play a charismatic priest in this chilling island horror series. It is a slow-burn masterpiece that proves no one runs a haunted island quite like him.
- Eerie, Indiana (VOD): Decades before Stranger Things, this 90s cult classic followed a teen uncovering government experiments and alternate dimensions in his weird suburban town. It is the ultimate atmospheric time capsule of retro sci-fi TV.
- Evil (Paramount+): This supernatural drama is secretly one of the funniest shows on television. With Lost star Michael Emerson chewing the scenery as a demonic instigator, it balances legitimate scares with absolute absurdity.
- Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace (Peacock): This legendary British parody presents itself as a lost 1980s medical drama set over the gates of hell. It is a masterclass in terrible acting, hilarious special effects, and brilliant meta-comedy.
- From (MGM+): If you want less comedy and more terrifying sci-fi mystery, this series about a town plagued by night monsters is essential viewing. Produced by the Russo brothers, it will keep you hooked with constant mind-bending puzzles.
- Gravity Falls (Disney+): Do not let the animation fool you; this series is packed with deep lore, paranormal activities, and dark humor. It is the perfect cozy mystery alternative for fans of eerie Oregon vibes.
- Ash vs Evil Dead (Starz): Bruce Campbell returns as the iconic chainsaw-wielding hero in a show that refuses to take itself seriously. It serves up glorious gore, slapstick comedy, and non-stop supernatural action.
The Nerd Bureau Take:
We are living in a golden age of weird television, and Widows Bay is leading the charge for supernatural comedy. If you want something that matches its exact frequency, start with Midnight Mass for the vibes and Evil for the laughs. Let us know in the comments which spooky small town you are visiting next!
