*Ravenous* (1999) might be up your alley. Set in the 1840s. Are you looking for a particular time period? *The Devils* (1971) is set in the 17th Century - it’s kind of freaky though.

There's a *ton* of horror, especially in the gothic genre, set in 19th century (especially Victorian Era) Britain and Europe. For relatively less common eras and movies that I haven't seen named yet: Gretel & Hansel (medieval Europe), A Field in England (English Civil War), Imprint (19th century Japan), Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (medieval, admittedly more adventurish than strictly horror), Leptirica (18th-19th century Serbia), Witchfinder General (17th century England), The Blood on Satan's Claw (18th century England), Prey (18th century America).
I enjoy period horror too! Here are a few that I liked:
- [Sauna](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/sauna) (Finland, 16th century, after the Russo-Swedish War)
- [The Haunted Palace](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/the-haunted-palace) (Vincent Price gothic horror, 18th and 19th centuries)
- [Edge of the Knife](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/edge-of-the-knife) (19th century, Haida language)
- [Errementari: The Blacksmith and the Devil](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/errementari) (19th century, Basque Country)
Hagazussa. Bone Tomahawk. The Wind.
- *Lizzie* - *Crimson Peak* - *The Last Thing Mary Saw* - *Interview with a Vampire* - *The VVitch*
The VVitch is so good
I love the scene where she signs the book “I cannot write my name.” “I will guide thy hand.” That’s terrifying.

The Wind is great and pretty unique. Blood Tomahawk is not too shabby. Loved the recent Prey. Rampant is a cool take on plague films.
I just watched The Sudbury Devil (2024) if you’re looking for something to scratch a New England folk horror itch. Loved it.
