This is so bittersweet as we say farewell to our discussions of the masterpiece that is The Haunting of Hill House! We also talk about the amazing classic novel by Shirley Jackson, and the absolute insult that is the 1999 movie titled The Haunting. Many thanks to those of you who have continued to follow along, we love you all!

"Hill House itself, not sane, stood against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, its walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone."
- Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

We've reached The Haunting of Hill House's penultimate episode: Screaming Meemies. Olivia cannot keep fact from fiction as the House slowly drives her into madness; but is the House itself at fault? or is it because of the residential mean girl, Poppy? Hugh tries to send her away, but Liv really, really wants to have a tea party. Listen in as we experience all this trauma and horror together, here on Fans o'Flanagan.

And we're back after an unplanned summer break! Here are Noah and Laura discussing episode 8: Witness Marks. Fair warning, Laura has a massive case of laryngitis that did not get fixed in post, nor replaced by AI. In this episode Steve gifts his mom a restored vanity, Luke tries to burn down Hill House, and adult Steve learns he did see ghosts as a child. Did you notice the dead clocksmith? Beware when watching along, this is the episode that has the absolute best jump scare of the season!

The trauma and the drama continues with the Crain family at Nell's funeral. Laura wonders: Where is the Eulogy? We finally meet Aunt Janet, and Noah gets jump-scared live from a sneaky background ghost. We also try to figure out if Hugh is a good father or not?

Can we rename this episode to Dysfunction? Because hello drama! At Nell's viewing we have all the arguing, and just when we didn't think Steve could get any worse, he hits Hugh with some low blows. Dangit Steve.
Join us for all the emotions today, and make sure to stick around for Corey's Comments!

And we're back with episode 5: The Bent Neck Lady. This is Nell's episode as we follow her through her experiences as a child being haunted by this terrifying Bent Neck Lady, as well as in her adulthood being diagnosed with sleep paralysis. Is it that simple, though? We think not.
Also is this episode more about The Haunting of Hill House? or random rants and tangents? Listen to find out! Let's Go!

Here we learn more about Luke and his journey with addiction, and path to recovery. Did Luke and Nell's connection start in the House?
Also, we finally hear about the part that freaked out Laura the most in the whole series! It's seriously creepy!
