8 Doctor Who Episodes That Really Do Make Us Hide Behind The Sofa

For those only vaguely familiar, Doctor Who might seem like just another of the greatest sci-fi fantasy shows ever, that occasionally veers into the ridiculous. However, the iconic BBC series has dipped its toes into horror, going all the way back to its classic era. The show has always featured terrifying alien races, monsters (many of which the modern Doctor Who era hasn’t used yet), dark themes, and existential dread-inducing ideas, so it should come as no surprise that some episodes still make fans want to hide under a blanket or behind the sofa.
