Nosferatu Streaming Guide: How to Watch Robert Eggers' Remake Online

Nothing screams Christmas quite like gothic horror. In his first project since 2022's The Northman, Robert Eggers returns with cinematographer Jarin Blaschke for a remake of 1922's Nosferatu. The Lighthouse alum Willem Dafoe also returns for what Siddhant Adlhkada's review describes as "one of the finest, most viscerally exciting works of horror this year."

Whether you're planning a Babyratu double feature or want to stream the original silent film, here's everything we know about how to watch Nosferatu in theaters or at home.

How to Watch Nosferatu: Showtimes and Streaming Status

Nosferatu is still showing in theaters. If you're hoping to catch the vampire on the big screen, you can find showtimes near you at the main theater links below:

Where to Stream Nosferatu

Nosferatu (2024) just released on digital and is now available to rent or buy from marketplaces like Prime Video. The movie will eventually stream on Peacock (instead of Netflix or Max) because the film's distributor, Focus Features, is a subsidiary of NBC Universal. Previous Focus Features releases from 2024, The Bikeriders and Conclave, were in theaters for about seven weeks before streaming. Assuming the vampire follows a similar timeline, Nosferatu should arrive on Peacock by mid-February 2025.

Nosferatu Physical Release

The details of Nosferatu's physical release were announced as the movie arrived on digital marketplaces. Per Daily Dead, a 4K and Blu-ray edition of Nosferatu will release on February 18, including an extended cut of the movie as well as a pretty fantastic slate of bonus features.
