As far as horror movie franchises, Insidious is a really successful one, drawing in more and more viewers every time a new movie is released. Let's see how we can watch Insidious movies in order. 

The Insidious franchise started over a decade ago - the first film was released in 2010. The most recent film premiered in 2018, but we do have confirmation that a new movie will be released in the next couple of years. 

The movies tell a twisted story where a couple's young son enters a comatose state only to become a vessel for ghosts. When demons start visiting, things become even more disturbing. It's a movie full of hauntings and scares that will chill you to the bone. 

Who Plays in Insidious?

The cast of Insidious has remained pretty constant over the years - at least the main characters. We can enjoy following Patrick Wilson, Lin Shaye, Leigh Whannell, Angus Sampson, Rose Byrne, Ty Simpkins, Steve Coulter, and plenty others. 

How to Watch Insidious by Release Order?

One of the ways you can binge on the Insidious films is the order they were released. In this way, you'll experience the same things everyone else did who followed the series from the beginning. Here's the order you can experience the Insidious movies:

There you go! Now you know what order you can watch them if you want to experience the films as everyone else did. 

How to Watch Insidious Movies in Chronological Order?

Of course, there's another way to experience the Insidious world - chronologically. While the first two movies clearly follow one another, the third and fourth feature time jumps. We're unclear how the fifth Insidious film will fall into the chronology, but we're sure we'll find out soon enough.

There you go. In this way, we go back in time with the psychic who helps multiple families over time, including the couple that stars in the first two movies from the series. 

Where to Stream Insidious Movies?

We now have two orders you can enjoy the Insidious movies in, so let's also see where we can stream them. Of course, if you'd rather, there are plenty of options to purchase or rent them out instead. 

Please keep in mind that even if the movies are available on these particular platforms right now, they may "expire" at one point or another.
