    Just finished EP 4, I think the way the timelines are presented are really, really great. My heart aches for the twins. I also loved the way we understood Shirley more in episode 2 with her mom/the cats.

    thanks for being spoiler friendly in here y’all, enjoying seeing the reactions to each ep. just watched 5 and 6 last night, and while 5 was fantastic, 6 may have been just as good and perhaps my favorite episode yet. a whole lot to praise there

    what i considered to be a glaring difference between the father in the past versus present day dissolved entirely in episode 6, a great performance from Hutton throughout and really inspired casting

    I was watching on an iPad in bed with headphones, it was probably the worst jump scare i've experienced. Woke up my fiance lol.

    I didn't mind the ending. I kind of expected things to get a little crazier, but the idea of keeping the house "alive" to keep the spirits inside is hauntingly beautiful, especially the Abigail story line. The only thing that I think is odd is differentiating between the malicious spirits and the non ones.

    I didn't expect things to get crazy in the final episode given the pacing of the show, it would have felt out of place to me, like the final shot of A Quiet Place. So I thought the ending was beautiful as well.

    yeah, very surprised at the negativity surrounding the ending after having watched it myself. thought it was pretty damn good.

    I watched this all today and loved it. It was way sadder than I was expecting. The Gregory Alan Isakov song in the last episode got me good.

    best moments:
    - Stevie getting the phone call from dad that Nellie is dead while he’s staring at her in his living room
    - the ending of the bent neck lady episode. that’s gonna stick with me for a while
    - the beginning of the last episode when Steve’s happy future is revealed to be a dream
    - the truth about the red room

    Rewatched 1-5 with some friends who stayed over the weekend. This is def a good show to rewatch. And seeing people’s reactions is so fun.

    im torn. I want Flanagan to revisit Hill House and do a second season, but I also want him to make another horror mini series.

    as long as it doesn’t involve the Crains, im all for it. he mentioned in one of the interviews that they have shot or were at least scheduled to shoot hours of footage of the construction and origins of Hill House and stories of the less prominent ghosts but they had to cut it. would love to see that stuff

    Some of the non linear events they introduce could also be fun to bring some things full circle.

    I was hoping we’d learn about the Hills so I’m definitely down for a series on them

    i wanted more info on the body that entombed itself in the basement. obviously was meant to be mostly symbolic but if there was more story to that i missed it.

    There was more to the story.

    The tall man is him. Shirley is told the story in the final episode before she wakes up.

    Basically he has these two sisters that won’t stop harassing him so he builds this giant wall, the sisters get into the wall (bc I think they are ghosts) so he tries to escape but can’t. He feels very small inside the walls and when he wakes he’s a very tall man.
