The Haunting of Hill House

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

The Haunting of Hill House is HANDS DOWN the best horror series I've ever seen. It's a meditation on death, grief and trauma. It is equal parts scary and engaging. The best character development I've seen in a long time and a huge leap forward for horror. We need more horror like this. It has disturbed me and moved me. It's portrayal of the supernatural as more of a human experience and less of a "poltergeist" type is revolutionary. It, to me, makes more sense to believe in ghosts than I ever thought was possible

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.

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.

Actors: 10/10 Storyline: 10/10 Chills & Goosebumps: 11/10 A perfect horror series with suspense that lingers until the very last episode. "The Haunting of Hill House" delivers a deeply emotional and terrifying experience, blending fear with powerful storytelling. It's rare for a show to keep viewers gripped until the final minute, but this one absolutely succeeds. Did not actually mind missing some important tasks. This became a priority because curiosity had the best of me! The character development, atmosphere, and plot twists are top-notch. An unforgettable journey that masterfully combines horror with heart. Highly recommended!!!
