I love to chill with hot chocolate and plaid on me. I’m not a fan of known series like Strangers Things, Riverdale, or Game of Thrones. I prefer underrated series like Quicksand, Baby, The sinner or the haunting of hill house. The haunting of hill house is one of my favorite show. So I’ll talk about this series. It’s an horror series but for me it’s more psychological than horror. In the 1980’s, the Crain family moved into a big house called « Hill house ». Very quickly, strange events occur affecting children in particular. One day something happened and the father flees home with his five children. So it’s the story 20 years after. But one day a new tragedy sends him back to Hill house, where the entire family has to face the past and the darkness of what they experienced within the walls of the sinister house.
Why is this series very good and why do you have to watch it?
This series is based on the different points of view of the characters. Each episode is on one of the characters of this cursed family. His childhood, how this character lived it. There are going on between the past and the present which allows us to see his point of view.
Even though this series may be slow, we are immersed in this series. We have clues throughout the episodes. It allows us to connect all the clues and understand. It’s not just a pleasure to look, you also have to think in order to understand everything. We learn the experiences of the Crain family through these comings and goings and how they lived it. Despite everything, the characters are pretty simple. And this show is scary, it’s scary. The atmosphere is dark which leaves us on our guard throughout. Moreover, there are not many jumpscares.
Throughout the series we have to pay attention to the clues as well as the apparrition. There are clues everywhere.
