It’s been an incredible year for horror fans. Films like Backrooms, Resident Evil, Insidious: Out of the Further, Evil Dead Burn and Scream 7 all released this year, while Obsession dominated the box office. And we can’t forget about television. Recent horror shows like Carrie and Crystal Lake are all everyone’s talking about, and IT: Welcome to Derry fans were ecstatic about HBO’s recent announcement of the renewal of season two.
After releasing in theaters in May of this year, Obsession quickly became the horror film of the year. Grossing over $523 million on a $750,000 budget, the film broke several records, including becoming Focus Features’ highest-grossing film in history and surpassing Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, becoming the highest-grossing original film of the decade.

Written and directed by 27-year-old Curry Barker, Obsession follows Bear (Michael Johnston), who comes across a One Wish Willow toy in a shop. Too scared to confess his feelings to his crush and long-time friend Nikki (Inde Navarrette), he uses the toy to wish she’d love him more than anything in the world. His wish backfires when Nikki becomes dangerously obsessed with him.
Because of its popularity, the film had a three-month theatrical run from May to July. It later released on Peacock on July 17. Now, another streaming platform is picking up the iconic horror film. Obsession is slated to hit Netflix on November 17. Although it won’t hit the streaming platform until after spooky season, we can bet that horror fans will be the first ones to watch it in November. Netflix teased the announcement of the film coming to their platform in a social media post with the caption, “You wished for this. Obsession is coming to Netflix in the US on November 17.”

— Netflix (@netflix) October 18, 2026While Barker hasn’t announced Obsession 2, Navarrette is completely on board. “What is she doing afterwards? I think the non-pretty answer, which I think is more important to give sometimes than kind of just giggling through answers, is she’s starting a grief process,” she told The Hollywood Reporter.
