Glad you loved it!

I'll check it out. It's written and directed by Mike Flanagan, and I like his work.

I'm a little hesitant because I read TV series description, which is different than I hoped. The original novel (Shirley Jackson), and the original film "The Haunting (1963)", center around a Dr. Montague who hopes to find scientific evidence of the existence of the supernatural. And it appears the TV series doesn't have that at all, right?

Still, if it's actually shot in the real Hill House... it's a stunning house.

HammerFan, I think you'd really like The Haunting 1963. It's apparently a different story than the TV series.
