Films that frighten
Chillers are machines that cool liquids or air, used in industrial settings and large buildings: The building's chillers run constantly in summer.
In entertainment, chillers are horror films or stories designed to frighten—things that send chills down your spine.
The word appears in phrases like spine chillers for particularly scary works.
