House of Dragon fans can move over to Netflix for a great Matt Smith horror

Matt Smith plays Daemon, a warrior prince who exists among fire-breathing reptiles and palace intrigue, in House of the Dragon season 2 episode 6.

With no date in sight for season three of House Of The Dragon, its millions of viewers can find an atmospheric horror on Netflix starring a major face from its line-up — Matt Smith.

Over on the streamer, there's the chance to catch one of his ventures into the world of horror in His House, a nerve jangler from 2020. Inspired by the refugee experience, it tells the story of a pair of asylum seekers who are placed in a run-down house on an unwelcoming estate, only to discover evil lurking in its walls. This claustrophobic variation on the traditional haunted house story also stars Gangs Of London's Sope Dirisu as one of the refugees, with Smith as the case worker assigned to house him and his wife. Enigmatic to the point of sinister, he explains to the couple that they can’t, under any circumstances, leave the house and his spine-tingling confrontation with Dirisu is a real high point.
