Hello do you know any dark academia movies or TV shows that I can find on Netflix?

* DISCLAIMER: this is based off of my personal loose definition of DA. Some of you may disagree with me on these qualifying but I believe they mostly fit. Also, the movies listed are horror movies. If you have any sensitivity to horror, google the movie before watching it. I know there are more DA shows and movies out there, this post contains Netflix DA content only.

DA Shows on Netflix:

The Magicians- magical university with dark themes! Takes awhile to get over the writing but the gist is pretty good

The End of the F*cking World- School setting and a shit ton of misfortune. Also funny and captivating

Dear White People - university with secret societies! Bonus points for diversity plus this is funny af 10/10

A Series of Unfortunate events - you prob know this from your childhood, one of the OG examples of DA I think. Dark shit and (sometimes) a school setting

Derry Girls- Irish school in the 90’s! Deals with the Irish conflict so semi- dark themes, this one is also hilarious and one of my favorite shows ever

Skins- (kind of DA) dark themes + teens. Earliest seasons are best

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina- Satan worshipping witches! A witch school! Murder! Corruption! Can be very dark, writing also takes a while to get over, but if you watch long enough you’ll love it

How to Get Away with Murder- the title says it all. (This show also helped get me into DA)

DA Movies on Netflix:

A Nightmare on Elm Street- ik this is barely dark academia but it has a school setting and dark themes BC murder, also vintage v cool

The Scream franchise - teens in school + a murderer. Also vintage and great

Silence of the Lambs- (I know this is barely, again I have a loose definition of DA) main character is in the FBI academy + a murderer. Also vintage

"I'm having suicidal thoughts again and I want to tell someone. I want to open up and ask for help but I'm scared that they'll see me different so I just face it alone until the thoughts eventually win."

What if you met someone just outside the ball, a couple of hours after it had started. You had left having been sick of being passed around the ballroom, escaping through a hidden exit and wandering the corridors only to find yourself outside, where a woman in a dark suit stood against the sandstone building, smoking a cigarette in silence. The music could still be faintly heard from inside with only the candle lit hallway behind the arching windows providing you the light to see her face. She was beautiful, as she turned to you and spoke in a deep honey voice, removing the cigarette. "Hello, darling."

it just bottles up and up until you can’t hold it, and once you spill it, you don’t feel anything anymore

"I used to lie in bed at night and cry my eyes out. But lately it's like I'm numb. I want to cry, but unfortunately the tears no longer drop."

you’re sat in the library, there are thousands of leather-bound books surrounding you. it’s late enough that most people have already left but early enough that you’re still only on your first coffee. you’re reading an academic text on a topic you’re really interested in. you’re feeling motivated for the night ahead of you.
