The Haunting of Hill House

Everything about this show was excellent in concept and execution. Writing, casting, acting, directing, cinematography ect... were great. A true tour de force of visual media. The show contains such sensible and intellectual ideas about grief and family that makes it so hopeful in the end, despite being gut-wrenching and terrifying. Although this is supernatural horror, it is well grounded in reality, even more than some "realistic" horror films.

I have re-watched this show about 4 times, and I will be watching it many more times in the future. I can't recommend "The Haunting of Hill House" enough.

I've only started on episode 2, although I'm hooked and freaked right out! The performances from the adults and the younger versions of the adults are very convincing and ropes you into a family that has been screwed over by terror and your along for the ride with them! Enjoy I am

I DESPERATELY want a story about Hill House's past to see Poppy's entire story

Monologues for days. Just so, so many "poignant" monologues. So, so many self-reflective, melodramatic monologues. Long speeches aside, the production value is great. The child actors are fantastic. The story is intriguing, though it tends to only creep along. Quite good, but not perfect, as it's high rating suggests.

I haven't written a review before but I thought that this show deserved it. I went into The Haunting of Hill House blindly (as one should) and wow did it blow my mind. This show is filled with effective scares and fast paced moments, but also slow, drawn out scenes that will leave you with goosebumps. I found it hard not to just binge the entire thing in one sitting! Hill House brought out fears from my childhood that I forgot I had. Both the casting and the acting were astounding and I don't think they could've been any better. Especially the child actors were incredibly believable. There were a few moments that I believe will stick with me forever. I had to take a few breaks simply to process! Overall I can confidently say that The Haunting of Hill House is the most well done and effective horror show that I've ever seen. I most definitely will be watching all of Flanagan's other works after this masterpiece!
