A24's first foray into horror, Robert Eggers' The Witch, followed in 2015. Since then, the indie studio has developed a reputation for its distinct brand of horror, which often prioritizes atmospheric horror over jump scares, as seen in Ari Aster's Hereditary, Midsommar, and Beau is Afraid.

As 2024 comes to an end, it has been an incredibly strong year for A24, with almost every one of its releases, save for The Front Room (42%) and Y2K (45%), receiving Certified Fresh scores on Rotten Tomatoes, including Love Lies Bleeding (94%), Civil War (81%), We Live in Time (78%), and more. This trend of widely positive critical reviews extends to A24 horror as well, with their 2024 horror releases including I Saw the TV Glow (84%), MaXXXine (72%), and Heretic (91%).
