If there is one fantasy genre that is unitedly and wildly embraced by fans worldwide, then it is vampires. The alluring myth and the mystery surrounding the blood-drinking vampires have been smartly converted into a trope of merciless killers carrying a golden heart, and fighting their natural urge to kill on the arrival of their significant other, who, in most cases, are humans. And the most successful movie franchise in this genre is the tale of teen romance, The Twilight Saga
.
Objectified by the critic but adored by all fans universally, this set of five movie sagas is set to return on Netflix. Get to know all the details about its upcoming arrival.

The saga was last available to watch on Netflix five years ago, but it had to give them up due to expiring licensing agreements. That time it stayed on the platform for six months, perhaps due to a limited contract with the studio. In the meantime, it was available to watch on other streaming services like Amazon Prime and Hulu, but it returns at the very beginning of the next month on Netflix, making May extra hot.
