Higurashi Anime Order
AnimeSpoiler
Main series + OVAs:
-Higurashi no naku koro ni
-Nekogoroshi-hen (OVA)
-Higurashi Kai
-Higurashi Rei (OVA)
-Higurashi Kira (OVA)
-Higurashi Kaku (OVA/Movie/Uncanon)
Sequels:
-Higurashi Gou
-Higurashi Sotsu
Extra: This series is also a VN and Manga, apparently both of those routes are better to take than the anime but I've not read either so I can't give my input ^^;
I'd also like to mention the 2020 remake of the original (Higurashi Gou) It is argued that this isn't a word for word remake, infact a good bit of it will be hard to understand if you have not watched the original, I also hear that you're meant to have seen umineko beforehand too? So it's quite confusing.
Take everything I've said with a grain of salt, I only started watching this series this month and am just finished the main series + OVAs at the time of making this. However I am almost certain that the order, at the very least, is correct as I got this info through two long time members of the community. ^^
