About

You’ll probably like Grave Encounters if you enjoy found-footage horror and maze-like dread in dark spaces, with plenty of chills and atmosphere; Not for you if you want big-budget polish, consistently logical storytelling, or subtle scares without sudden shocks.

Pros: creepy haunted asylum; effective tension; found-footage twisty fun | Cons: low-budget effects; mixed scare quality; uneven focus
