how good is this?


the rating is impressive.

It's really good, I just finished it for the second time. It's not just a mindless scary show. You get to know the characters and it's a good story.

thanks

did you ever watch it?

i thought it was really good, almost great. the only real complaints i have with it are that it peaked a bit early (episode 5+6 are the standouts) and the finale gets a bit too soap-opera-ish and sappy.

but if you can sit through 10 episodes of something, you might find it enjoyable. it's surprisingly emotional in places.

I'm quite jealous of you watching it for the first time.

I wish I could erase my mind and watch it again for the first time.

When this show first came out I watched the trailer and figured I would watch it because I enjoy ghost movies and supernatural movies, I watched it for no other reason other than I was hoping maybe it might have a few good scares.

But this show completely blew me away and instead of watching it for scares, I became absolutely engaged and invested in the characters and stories in this show

for me The Haunting of Hill House it is tied with True Detective season 1 as my favorite individual TV seasons of all time


no exaggeration here , I literally cannot recommend this show enough Z

Not very.

Strings you along with some cool mysteries that don’t amount to much. Well made but ultimately falls apart. Quite woke, too.

It’s on 8.6 but deserves 6.8 max.
