Jump scare haters, watch out for Netflix’s new sequence “The Midnight Club.”

The present, a horror mystery-thriller that debuted on October 7, has damaged a world report for its plethora of leap scares, according to a news release from Guinness World Records.

A leap scare describes the basic horror film trope when a second of tranquility is interrupted by a loud noise or a lightning-fast lower supposed to make a viewer leap with shock or concern. Think of Jason Voorhees leaping out of the water on the finish of the 1980 basic “Friday the thirteenth.”

The first episode of “The Midnight Club” broke the report for essentially the most scripted leap scares in a single tv episode, the information launch says. The episode contains a bone-chilling 21 leap scares.

The present’s creator, Mike Flanagan, joked that he needed to interrupt the report as a response to producers who regularly requested him so as to add in additional leap scares, regardless of his needs, in line with the discharge.

The horror sequence relies on a 1994 novel by Christopher Pike and tells the story of eight youngsters with terminal sicknesses. Set in a wierd hospice within the Nineties, the kids begin assembly up at late night time to swap disturbing and supernatural tales.
