Zone Horror (formerly known as The Horror Channel) is a television film channel in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. The channel shows horror movies and the channel states that it is the United Kingdom's first horror movie channel. The channel was acquired by Zonemedia (formerly Zone Vision Networks Ltd.) in June 2005. Since the channel's takeover (and shortly before), it has shifted away from films and seems to rely more on constant repeats of series programming, such as Vampire High and Tales From The Crypt.
Specialised programming includes cult, Hollywood, comedy, Hammer House of Horror, B-Movie classics, modern thrillers, series, home-produced specials, biographies and documentaries.
Zone Horror is currently available as a free-to-air service on SES Astra 2 and is part of Virgin Media's XL package.
