The first few episodes of Amazon’s Nine Perfect Strangers are finally here, and given how episode three left off, it’s safe to say we’re in for a real doozy. With new episodes dropping every week, we can’t help but sit on the edge of our seats in anticipation as to what will happen to the guests at Masha’s (Nicole Kidman) remote wellness retreat.
If you’re craving more Nine Perfect Strangers content, you can always read the bestselling novel the series is based on, or book yourself a stay at the real-life Tranquillum House. But if you’re looking for something more visually entertaining, we’ve rounded up a list of equally suspenseful thrillers centred around quirky characters, wellness, and diabolical storylines to get you through the coming weeks and beyond.

You
Joe Goldberg (portrayed by Penn Badgley) could benefit from a one-on-one session with Masha. Charming on the outside, sinister on the inside, you do not want to be on this bookstore clerk’s romance radar. Once Joe has his eyes set on you, there’s no going back.

Behind Her Eyes
Louise has gotten herself into a very complicated love triangle, and she likes it. After beginning a steamy affair with her boss, Louise seeks out his wife, Adele, in hopes of becoming her closest friend. Enraptured in both their lives, Louise convinces herself she’s what’s best for both of them. However, the more she discovers about the couple, the more she fears it’s too late to escape. Behind Her Eyes will satisfy your appetite for an addicting, nail-biting thriller.

How to Get Away With Murder
As of now, it’s a little unclear as to what Masha and her team have planned for their retreat guests, but if our hunch is correct, Annalise Keating from How to Get Away With Murder could definitely offer some dirty legal assistance. The show follows legal expert Annalise and her law students as they work to cover up some of the deadliest murder cases her firm has ever seen.

Dirty John
Based on a true-crime podcast, Dirty John follows Debra (played by Connie Britton) as her family’s livelihood is put in grave danger when she falls head over heels for a con man named John Meehan. Both this show and Nine Perfect Strangers offer a thrilling take on the age-old question: How well do you truly know someone?

They’ll have to band together to uncover what exactly happened on their trip, and devise a plan to get things back to normal.

Manifest
The passengers of Montego Air Flight 828 all have one thing in common: they’ve been presumably dead for the last five years. Upon their arrival in NYC, they learn what’s transpired since their flight’s departure several years ago. Similar to the characters in Nine Perfect Strangers, these strangers will have to lean on each other for support.

HBO
White Lotus
Like Nine Perfect Strangers, HBO’s The White Lotus takes place at a resort and centres around an interesting group of vacationers. However, their relaxing trip takes a horrific turn when one stranger leaves the island paradise in a body bag.
