The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020)

Review by gerimease

The Haunting of Bly Manor

9/10

Every love story is a ghost story

If you're expecting a Ghost Story akin to "Paranormal Activity", then this is not the movie for you. This is not a horror story, this is a Ghost Story. The Haunting of Bly Manor is true to its title, it is a Haunting tale. You will love this film if you watch it from beginning to end all at once, in a dark room. Embrace the atmosphere of the story, and watch it uninterrupted. I don't want to go into details of the series because there is sooo much to tell and these things are best left for the view to discover.

People that like a tale to be told, flat out and quickly won't enjoy it. But, if you allow yourself to just relax and sink into the depths of the atmosphere laid out before you, I think you'll come to love this as much as I did.

This is a Gothic romance. There is the ominous sense of dread, passion, emotion, fear, and doom.

The last two episodes really did me in. By the end I was in tears and as I stopped to reflect about what I'd just watch, I was reminded of this ...."Every love story is a ghost story" And it's fitting here.

If you're not looking for a jump-scare, blood, gore, down-right horror-filled show, then give this one a go. You may love it too.
