Reviews for The Haunting of Hill House

I still think about how much this series made me sob instead of scaring the life out of me. They way this is about grief and traumas and how they can take the form of monsters, ghosts, and how they can haunt you forever. It’s about trying to let go but being unable to, trying to live your life des

Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it

i am so emotionally drained right now from watching this all in one sitting. i need to start rewatching this every october, it’s too good.

Horror is not my thing, and I think the show is much longer than it should be. Even so, it must be recognized that it is well done

This series brings me nostalgia. I haven't pooped my pants and cried at the same time in a very long time. Bravo Mike Flanagan 👏👏

"i loved you completely. and you loved me the same. that's all. the rest is confetti." pleasantly surprised by this miniseries. i loved all of the characters so much and loved the horror aspects. the casting department ate down. the mystery w the inconsistent storyline kept me hooked throughout. i

So first of a 3/5 or a 6/10 is in no way bad or mid and actually pretty good. I accept do think the show is very good from the cinematography to the editing and overall very well made. I dives into heavy themes like grief,Trauma and family dynamics. I masterfully blends together horror,mystery, dram

The Haunting of Hill House easily has my favourite horror in a piece of media but it's also a lot more than that, the series successfully juggles seven characters and their relationships with each other, never fumbling them once. The miniseries also contains some of my favourite acting I've seen, ev

These kids had one fucked up childhood Light 4 stars. The horror stuff was great but I don’t think there was a single convincing actor/actress.

never would have imagined a horror show would devastate me this much

High 9 Horror done right is usually my favourite thing ever but it’s never done right so I sometimes come off as someone who doesn’t like horror, thank god Hill House didn’t miss :) Episodes Ranked 1. Two Storms (1x6) - Tied for first 2. The Bent-Neck Lady (1x5) - Tied for first 3. Screaming Meemie

Some of the best horror media ever made. Going into this rewatch I kind of expected it to be worse because it was a while since I last watched it and my taste has extr changes since then, but I would argue it was even better this time around because I was able to better understand what made it so go

I originally started this because it was the most praised horror show out there. But it’s way more than horror, the family drama is the best part of the show and keeps you hooked on it. To be honest Im glad it wasn’t just horror because if i didn’t care about any of the characters the show would be

I want to have SEX with Steven from The Haunting of Hill House!

#7 ranked miniseries mike flanagan created a fairly beautiful, spectacular & emotional horror drama. the show focuses on two timelines, & each episode focuses primarily on one character, centering around one tragic theme, which is actually all the stages of grief for one of each character. when

Rewatched this masterpiece before I start House of Usher. Mike Flanagan did his big one here, this series is so near and dear to my heart 🥲

This show is too much for netflix. It's a true masterpiece and probably the best mini series I've ever seen.

One of the best surprises of the year for me. I expected to see the typical story about a haunted house, with the typical cliches, jumpscares and a final cheap plot twist, but its much more deep than that. The show tells the story of the Crain family. Steve, Shirley, Theo, Luke and Nell spend a sum
...

Rewatched what I consider the best limited series out there, and personally one of my all time favorite shows. The Haunting of Hill House is what I think of when someone mentions a character study. This show is a family study. Each character is given time to truly shine and it all blends together i

The real ghosts are the traumas we make along the way. Everything else is just confetti

The Haunting of Hill House at its core tells the story of a fractured family and how each member of that family deals with their own problems differently. The show likes to be sort of ambiguous and leave you think if it was all literal or metaphorical in the ghost stories it tells. I’d like to think
...

A very solid show but overrated imo. The way the show builds is brilliant, was pretty invested into where it was all leading to. The ending was not it, I think it was way too safe compared to how the show was building up. Episode 6 was the masterpiece episode for me, seriously well made. In retro
