In time for spooky season, here's our top picks for lesbian and bi representation in horror movies. Our favorite? Jennifer's Body, obvi. Hill House and Bly Manor make the cut, and even though it's never mentioned that she's a lesbian, Hot Leather Cop from Silent Hill gets an honorable mention.

Quarantine times are extra lonely, but we're coping.
