A curated list from the official Universal Classic Collection, Classic Monster Collection. Legacy Collection, and the Essential and Complete Collections. While there are many universal horror and thriller films, these are the official canonized monster films promoted by the studio.

This is a complete list of all horror films produced by Universal Pictures from the 1931 to 1956. [Note: 'Island of Lost Souls' and 'The Monster and the Girl' were originally produced by Paramount Pictures and later acquired by Universal.]

Universal Classic Monsters is a name given to the horror, fantasy, thriller and science fiction films made by Universal Pictures during the decades of the 1920s through the 1950s. They were the first shared universe in the entire movie industry in Hollywood and around the world.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbott_and_Costello

This list contains all movies of Universal Picture's classic monster line.

From the era of silent movies through present day, Universal Pictures has been regarded as the home of the monsters.

The Universal monsters are fictional monsters that figured in various horror, suspense and science fiction films made by Universal Studios during the decades of the 1920s through the 1950s. Universal introduce franchises like Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, The Wolf Man and Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Universal Horror or Universal Monsters - phrases used to describe the horror, suspense and science fiction films made by Universal Studios during the 1920s - 1950s.
Horror/Monster franchises include: Phantom of the Opera, Dracula, Frankenstein, Edgar Allan Poe, Mummy, Invisible Man, Werewolf / Wolf Man, Paula, the Ape Woman / Gorilla Girl, Inner Sanctum Mysteries, Creeper, Abbott & Costello, Gill Man / Creature from the Black Lagoon.
Universal has plans for rebooting the franchise. Starting with The Mummy (2019) as an origin story. [Though Dracula Untold (2016) was first and also an origin story, it is downplayed as the restart and said not part of Dark Universe canon). The new reboot Monster franchises include Creature from the Black Lagoon, Dracula, Frankenstein, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Invisible Man, and Phantom of the Opera. As of late 2017, those plans seem to have stalled.

The world of Abbott & Costello

Classic Monster Movies

Abbott and Costello were a comedy double act composed of William "Bud" Abbott and Lou Costello, whose work on radio and in film and television made them the most popular comedy team of the 1940s and early 1950s

Abbott and Costello made 36 movies together from 1940 to 1956.

Here is an exhaustive list of Universal Monster Movies including the new Universal Monster Universe. I will be adding more of those as they are released. If you feel that there is something missing, feel free to suggest an addition. I realize Dracula '92, Frankenstein '94 and Gods and Monsters '98 are not Universal properties but I feel they are closely related and relevant.
