sudshr47 February 21, 2019

Netflix has conjured up a second season of last fall’s buzzy, spooky drama The Haunting of Hill House.

It will be helmed once again by creator Mike Flanagan but don’t expect to see the Crain family at the center of Season 1 to be the focus. Season 2, titled The Haunting of Bry Manor, will comprise of an entirely different story based on Henry James’s gothic novella The Turn of the Screw.

This essentially labels Hill House as a horror anthology.

Warning: light spoilers for The Haunting of Hill House lie ahead.

Pop the champagne! Hand out the cigars! Open up the Red Room! It’s time to celebrate one of the most richly developed lesbian characters to ever grace the horror genre.

Last weekend, The Haunting of Hill House swept over Netflix like a wildfire as tons of terror loyalists and curious newbies streamed the new saga. From reflections on family trauma to contemplations on the never-ending cycle of grief, post-show discussions have predominantly focused on the series’ impactful overarching themes.

Stephen King just tweeted his reaction to ‘The Haunting of Hill House’

sudshr47 October 17, 2018

Okay, fine, I guess I’m going to have to watch The Haunting of Hill House.

Ever since the nightmare-inducing trailer came out I’ve been half-intrigued, half-wary (I’m embarrassingly easy to scare when it comes to supernatural, jumpy stuff). But now Stephen King has waded in, so I guess that seals it.

On Tuesday night, the King of horror posted the following tweet.

THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE, revised and remodeled by Mike Flanagan. I don’t usually care for this kind of revisionism, but this is great. Close to a work of genius, really. I think Shirley Jackson would approve, but who knows for sure.

The real terror of ‘Hill House’ lies in family trauma

sudshr47 October 12, 2018

Netflix really hedged its bets with this year’s Halloween fare, with plans to drop everything from Daredevil Season 3 to Sabrina in a matter of weeks – including a modern interpretation of Shirley Jackson’s horror novel The Haunting of Hill House.

At once veering away any prior adaptation of Jackson’s novel and paying tribute to staples of the horror genre, Hill House is an addictive slow burn of a binge that will have you biting your blanket in fear and tiptoeing in the dark. Yet even with all the ghostly frills of a horror classic, what stands out about Hill House is the haunting family drama at its center, and the questions of how the characters can escape the literal and figurative ghosts in their past.
