I'm so glad you're watching this series! It truly is phenomenal in its poignant storytelling ❤️ Brilliant reaction from you all as always! Here's an interesting theory (no spoilers) that I recall reading that I think you guys may appreciate: The five siblings are the embodiment of the 5 stages of grief: Steve is Denial Shirley is Anger Theo is Bargaining Luke is Depression and Nellie is Acceptance The show certainly deals with the powerful theme of what happens when a family and the individuals in it do not face the collective trauma and individual trauma they experienced at Hill House and through losing their mother in the manner they did. Their refusal to be honest with each other and to dig into what they experienced as children at Hill House haunts each of them in different ways through their entire adult lives.

Very true. I remember binge watching episodes 3, 4 and 5, but after ep 5, with Nellie's death, I just had to stop. I was so deeply shocked by how unfair and desperate it was. That she was haunted from her little kid age, throughout her life, by her own death. That the terrible events of her death night did not only ended her life, it also ruined her whole life from 6-year-old till her death. She never had a chance to have a good life, and when she started to enjoy life a little bit, it all just got even worse. A terrible, endless downward spiral.

@@glowface79 the guys mentioned that this story is about dealing with trauma, and one terrible aspect of trauma is that the average person tends to have a threshold of how much they'll willingly believe. It seems like the more horrible a thing that happened to a person, the more skeptical the people hearing about it will get until they just listen with a doubtful smile, like Nell's family do to her whenever she tries to tell them everything. I think it's because some trauma is so huge it hurts just to know about, so it's easier to try to pretend it's made up to protect yourself from the weight of it. Some people get a drug habit to cope with trauma, some people bury themselves in work, some people encase themselves in metaphorical ice, some people try to rationalize, some people leave. And some people, like Nell, shrink on on themselves and become invisible, perhaps still being loved by family, but never truly seen by them. Except for her husband and her equally messed-up brother. Poor Nell. I think Nell's story is one for the silent sufferers, who go through life being empathetic and kind because they truly understand misery, but whose own pain goes unnoticed or unaided. The ones who put on a brave face, or the ones who keep their mouth shut because they simply can't stand to be disbelieved yet again. It's absolutely devastating, but the portrayal is so beautiful and nuanced

I like it but I can’t buy it. there was no defining moment for me that would cause Nell to dispose of her meds due to the twin connection.

Then despite taking meds, she still saw her.

One of the issues that Nell and Luke had is that they had a "twin thing" as they call it. What Nell felt, Luke felt. Which is why he felt his neck hurt and began to feel cold while being sober on the night Nell died. But Nell also felt Luke. Which is why she was having a medication problem. It's a vicious circle. Nell fed Luke's pain and Luke fed Nell's pain. It went on and on back and forth. Luke got sober because Nell was happily married for a while. But then bad things happened again and it began to fall apart for them both. 👫

There are so many great facts about the making of ep 6. It was the episode they planned the whole set around, and rehearses like a play for months to get it right. Ghost Nell had white contacts on which made her almost blind, so she had to be led to and from her spots every time, and in several of the shots the kids weren't quick enough to get out of frame when they needed to, so they had crew placed out just to pick them up and run away with them. The longest of the scenes is over 15 minutes, and they could only film it a few times, because the rig for the camera didn't work right on the carpet on the floor, so it was breaking apart. Flanagan didn't tell the cast, though, he didn't want to make them nervous. In the end, there were some mistakes they had to live with. Flanagan has praised the actor of the adult dad recently, because he stumbled on his line at one time and glanced off at Mike to see if he would cut, but he gestured for him to keep going, so the dad gave a small nod and mumbled as if he was talking to the mom, then just kept on with the scene. In the end, it blended right in.

45:27 Nice of you to notice during the first scene that it was a long take. Almost the entire episode is just 5 different scenes. There's 3 with the adult actors and 2 with the younger ones. And the transitions between them are sublime. The very first cut was at 47:34 right after the chandelier falls and you see the dad from another angle. There are a few behind the scenes videos on KZitem that show how they did this. I highly recommend checking it out. They actually planned this episode from the very beginning and were able to build the set to accomplish the shot of going from the funeral home to the house as well as the transitions to upstairs and back down. The second cut is just before 51:08 in this edit. 59:25 is the third cut. The final long scene begins at 1:02:44 and ends at 1:04:23. After that, they use normal editing for the final few minutes. The thing that makes it even better, is the story is so damn good too. It's not just camera tricks that pull you in. It was really a perfect way to tell this part of the story. This whole series is simply wonderful in that way. We had the first five episodes to establish the five children, this one brings them all back together, and from here on out we see how it all wraps up. I won't say any more about what's to come, but I really look forward to seeing your reaction to it all.

I'm glad more people seem to understand that within the siblings it's not really about who is more damaged or more depressed or whatever else.

We don't see how often he got really ugly like that or how much worse it might have been so it's easy to get mad at Shirl or Steve when they're kinda mean to him.

After you’ve finished watching the show I can really recommend watching one of the videos about all the hidden ghosts in each episode. There’s sooo many and once you see them you start always looking for them in the background of every shot

Yes!! I’ve been looking for a comment about the hidden ghosts! I’ve read somewhere that there are a little more than 30 ghosts that you can spot in the background! Some of them are harder to see but there are a few that are quite easy to spot if you look carefully! It adds a lot of creepiness to the show, which is so cool!

For episode 5, actually it's an allegory of "inherited mental illness" when Olivia put necklace on Nell. She passed it to Nell. So no, Olivia isn't trying to kill Nell or an evil spirit.

@@loveIetteryeah I'm surprised how many people say that Olivia is evil or whatever, when I feel like the show established pretty well that the house focused on Olivia at first so that it could warp her perception of reality and kill the kids. Olivia is not evil, the house is evil.

Yes, it is an adaptation from literature. I consider this series more inspired by Shirley Jackson's novel because it took the original premise and just ran into greatness. The movie versions can't even come close.

Great observation with seeing the Past/Present/Future in relation to the siblings! However, I think it's the female siblings that possess the gift. For example: Shirley= present ("Nellie's in the red room" just as Nell was in the house) Theo= past (being able to see insight to people's/things' past through touch) Nellie= future (foreseeing her death)

I've always associated with Nelly because I have a parasomnia that causes me to see people or things in my room when I'm half-asleep-half-awake, and for the longest time I was insecure and embarrassed since no one around me could relate to it, but seeing Nelly go through the same thing made me feel affirmed and encouraged me to talk with my doctor so I could finally sleep soundly.

As I understood it, the house warps time inside it, on top of the sensitive abilities of the girls in the family: Shirley seeing things in her sleep ("Nellie's in the red room"), Theo with her touch, and Nell with her premonition (her death as BNL, Luke’s death). Speaking of Luke, I think he actually saw the BNL as well in his mind's eye through their twin thing - back in the tree house, the sketch that Steve saw of a screaming face was I'm pretty sure BNL. But Luke didn’t understand that it was Nell's vision so when Steve asked him where he got his ideas, he couldn't explain it. As for ep 6, the sets (Hill house, funeral home) were designed and built with this exact episode in mind, for the long one-takes. The longest one-take was around 16 minutes and the actors rehearsed and filmed it like a stage play. Brilliant episode and show, criminally underrated in terms of awards buzz. It made me an instant fan of Mike Flanagan.

You've probably already researched this by now, but this was based on a Gothic horror novel by Shirley Jackson, " The Haunting of Hill House". It was made into a very good film by Robert Wise called " the Haunting" in 1963, it was more like a creepy Gothic psychological horror film. no gore, not many jump scares but maintained a creepy and suspenseful vibe throughout. It was remade years later as a special effects horror movie that was not very good.

To answer your question from the end of episode 5, the show is very loosely based on a book of the same name by Shirley Jackson! It doesn’t have the same plot line, but a lot of character names and lines are nods to the original works. There are two movies based on the book, both called “The Haunting” one from ‘63 and the other from ‘99! Also, I’m loving your reactions to this series. It’s my favorite show of all time, and I love seeing other people experience it! Keep up the good work!

The grandma on the bed is Hazel Hill. Her reflection was the one that Luke saw through the little tube that Nell sent the buttons. She was the ghost that whispered "Clara." Also remember that the bed that she was laying on is the same bed that Theo called a "sick bed." I won't say much about the ghost kid in the wheelchair yet because he will be referenced in later episodes. It's kind of neat that the ghosts aren't really the center of attention in this series despite the fact that it's a horror series and it's called The Haunting of Hill House. Most paranormal movies often have the supernatural beings as the main antagonistic characters, but this one most of the ghosts are background characters and aren't exactly harming anyone. They're just creepy and each have a story of their own that isn't told in greater detail, although all of them fell victim to the house. If they did make another season of this, the only thing I'd want is a series about the Hill family and what happened prior to the events in this story. But all in all, this does great as a stand alone series. Keep up the good work guys. You haven't even gotten to the scariest jump scares yet. 😈

every episode hits so much differently on second attempt, like when I think about "feelings" I had after they come true. (I have some sort of prophetic feelings where I suffer both when something terrible happens and some time before, I have reacted a few times before hand and sadly never saved anyone but prepared people for it. A little while ago I heard about someone with the same sort of prophetic gifts who saved herself from a lethal pregnancy because a doctor believed her and prepared a crash cart)

Love that they were catching the fact that it "wasn't really Mommy". So many reactors get angry at the mom, wondering why she kills her own child. But mom's spirit is truly corrupted by the house -- sometimes her kind, gentle self, sometimes the personification of the house. There are no simple nor easy answers, and definitely no cliches here.
