I've loved horror for a long time but Flanagan introduced my favorite version of it; horror with a heart. It made me realise how any horror is overcome by being made meaningful , and when done so, has the capacity to heal the most damaged parts of ourselves. Monsters are not just monsters, they're mirrors, teachers and, in their own twisted right, healers. No one does a better job of showing us how than Flanagan

This version has absolutely nothing in common with Poe's dreary, classic story bar the name. Of course, in modern, woke times it has to be diverse including gay characters. As I've only watched the 1st episode of this new miniseries, there's still time for a transgender child to make an appearance. I recently watched the 1960s film with Vincent Price which was truer to Poe's dreary, classic story which I much preferred as you probably guessed.

You can buying the haunting series

[@linkin0983]

Hypeeee 🙌🏻 Mike Flanagan + a short story from Edgar Allen Poe is perfection.

[@ayyaz.4864]

I love that from the thumbnail alone, then not even a minute in seeing all the recurring actors, I instantly knew this was Mike Flanagan's newest baby despite not knowing this is something he was working on. Excited for the new addition to the Flaneverse!

[@Ultraanimegirl4]

Flanagan changed the horror genre honestly. I always felt like a lot of horror was missing a central heart. I never feel very connected to characters. With Flanagan, I cry watching most of his works! Feels and frights together 🤝

[@WoshMKS]

Bruce Greenwood is such an underrated actor. I generally don't like horror but I just might watch this.

[@RaulBrv]

I’m going to miss Mike Flanagan on Netflix. Hopefully Amazon gives him the free reign Netflix did with their upcoming projects.

[@arthursouza9641]

I hope so.Dark tower show will be one of his next project on prime video.

[@M24071]

i hope so too so far he is completely focusing on the dark tower series and he already has the stamp of approval from Stephen king so it's in good hands

[@FieryFlamingFajitas]

I love that he has brought back actors from Midnight Mass, 'the Hauntings', Doctor Sleep and even Midnight Club if I'm correct. So many amazing actors, I'm ready for it

[@felipepetersberchielli1651]

Midnight mass you mean, yeah, some actors from that series are back

From the master storyteller. An absolute master piece. 'We should settle up.' 'Oh we just did.' What an ending!

[@poojakrishnan741]

As an admirer of both Edgar Allan Poe's works and Mike Flanagan's horror shows, I'm very much looking forward to watch this masterpiece.

[@crvlad]

What masterpiece? It has 0 to do with Poe s work - this is a caricature of modern and stupid times we live, nothing more, a disgrace.

[@879SCSP]

@@crvladThe trailer alone literally references the Fall of the House of Usher, the Masque of the Red Death, the Raven, the Pit and Pendulum, and the Black Cat you vainglorious buffoon

[@chrissiem3958]

If anyone can mix and mould together several Poe stories and poems and make them work in an original and contemporary context, its Mike Flanagan. The man is a f*ckin' genius!

[@Ivosferatus]

I went into this series without having watched the trailer. It BLEW ME AWAY. It's one of Flanagan's best works.

[@AlexOrozco-Social-Pariah]

I started watching this series with no expectations (not really a Flanagan fan) but this is trully a masterpiece. As free as it was as an adaptation it remained true to the essence of Poe's mind and grim storytelling, an authentically unique take on Poe that works perfectly. This adaptation is true to it's time and it's origin, and I really enjoyed it.

[@squamish4244]

The Cask of Amontillado was pulled pretty much directly from the story, however, and the fact that it was the last one rocked. Even the line that he can't tell Amontillado from sherry.

[@AlexOrozco-Social-Pariah]

[@NocturnallyYours09]

I’m a HUGE fan of Edgar Allen Poe’s stories, so I’m super excited to see Mike Flanagan’s spin on this!! Also loved that they threw in some references to his most famous work, The Raven. ❤❤

[@Ryzenberg78]

This has got to go down as one of the most brilliant works of cinema in history. It's brilliantly done. The intertwining of Poe with modernist thought and theory, modern topics, it's so brilliantly done and blew my mind. I was left speechless when they brought it together in the perfectly presented bow ...

[@chris.shamblin]

I never knew that I was missing a mashup up of Edgar Allan Poe and Succession in my life until now. I can't wait.

[@M24071]

that's what i was thinking too it looks like a horror succession specially cause all the characters seems just completely awful and deserving of the horrible fate

[@thiagoalmeida177]

I wish victoria pedretti was in here but ok, this looks amazing

[@ApahtieParty]

True 😢

[@livelaughlovebellaramsey]

When my ELA teacher first made us read 'Tell Tale Heart's I immediately fell in love with Poe's writing, and now that that there is a movie about another one of his poems, I'm in love!

[@samarjamal1828]

I wasn’t expecting The show and its episodes were a delightful surprise ! The dialogues in the episodes were beautiful, narrative, poetry,profound, and dreamy at the same time. I never get bored of any episode in the series. You want to savor every minute to follow the dialogue and the context of the drama. Oh, Madeleine Asher's performance was truly remarkable. She portrayed her role with such authenticity and conviction that it felt like every moment was real. And I couldn't agree more about the young lady character, she was absolutely perfect. And Mr. Asher definitely deserved the Golden Globe for his outstanding performance. It's always incredible to see talented actors bring characters to life on the screen. 5 stars

[@simonspoke]

This franchise is what I originally expected American Horror Story to be like, but that took it's own path. THIS is great horror that excites and delights with every new story they show. Can't wait.

[@jessmc6243]

Yeah I can't believe how much MORE I love Flanagan's shows compared to AHS. They're storytelling and horror perfection and the writing, every monologue is exactly what's needed.

[@simonspoke]

@@jessmc6243 Yeah, I think AHS really went in a direction of self-aggrandising, where these stories seem more about the essence of what makes horror great.

[@mohmmednour3217]

Mike Flanagan is unbelievably consistent. He hooked me with Hill House, and Midnight Mass shot him into the stratosphere.

[@NoSurrender786]

Mike Flanagan's Doctor Sleep was a masterpiece. Such an underrated film

[@evaoliveira8579]

YES!

[@SixOhFive]

Finally, a series with substance! Thank the lord

[@mrx1333]

This looks really good! A modern tale of an old classic! Flanagan looks to have done it again with this series! And Kate looks fantastic with that look!!😍

[@caterpie911]

More like raping a classic and turning it into a Marvel show by using pointless jokes

[@xenobeers]

Flanagan is such an immense talent. I can't fathom losing him as a creator over something as benign as refusing to make Blu Ray's. Netflix's loss though, shows how disposable they view their creative talent

[@mclare71]

Right!?! They got rid of Fincher and the creators of DARK and 1899 as well!

[@Zeetana1]

Refusing to make blu-rays? Now that's ridiculously petty. Good riddance to such ridiculous demands! Dark and 1899 were highly overrated crap fests too.

0:51 that reference made me gasp. love that it's incorporating more than one Poe story

[@Zaid_theking328]

This was one of the most haunting short stories by Edgar Allan Poe. Would love to see where this film adaptation will take us.

[@ziabatsu4422]

The last 5 minutes of each episode is all I really found entertaining, sadly. It wasn't necessarily a bad story or anything, it was just a boring buildup. Like all of Flannagan's work, it jumps between the past and present a lot, and tells the story in tiny bits and pieces when the whole thing could have been summed up in half the time. That said, the show had me looking up how easily you can break handcuff chains. Long story short, there's a major plot issue. lol

[@Ezekiel400lux]

Absolutely right

[@foolsAmongstGhouls]

I love that Mike Flanagan is finally getting the recognition he deserves, incredible filmmaker

[@SmokeyLaBear]

What do you mean 'finally'? He got his recognition when he made a sequel to The Shining.

[@Sonal.09]

It's 3:20 am and I have just finished "The Fall of the House of Usher" and I'm kinda speechless.. Brilliant... yep let's start with that. Carla Gugino - Amazingly creepy Bruce Greenwood - I'm in love Willa Fitzgerald - Ruthless And the rest were "perfectly splendid" as well. Yes, I'm in my Flanagan-era. "Midnight Club", "Hill House", "Bly Manor", "House of Usher" all done. Only "Midnight Mass" is left, but I might take some rest, too much horror & suspense for the heart. One should definitely be a part of the brilliant "Flanagan-verse", it's amazing, definately crazy, but amazing.

[@m31sprincesa62]

Carla Gugino Killed it!!! (No pun intended 💜😂) I love the cast and glad to see more of them ever since the haunting of hill house

It's so nice seeing Mark Hamil cast in a role where he is not being forced to betray and destroy a cinematic icon and franchise, by an incompetent director and an evil corporation. Mark really shines in this series, I hope he gets more roles like this, he's quite talented.

[@kevinpetroff5486]

I KNOW! I didn't even know it was him, voice, stance, movement was so completely different! I want to see him in more roles because of this -- he really stood out in this series, like the backbone of the story (which he was).

[@thomassilver2529]

Yet another masterpiece. Not denying that for a second. AMAZING story, great directors, actors, soundtrack, sound design, set design, script and costumes. A+++

[@poncesanmar]

This show should be rated 10/10. The amount of symbology used in this series is insane. We could appreciate not only the most recurrent topics used by Poe in his novels such as death, opioids or misfortune, but also nods to stories that were not so explicitly represented, such as Berenice (Morelle), MS found in a bottle (Pym) or Cask of Amontillado (Griswold), for example. I’d say that the story that best represents this whole series, however, is William Wilson, showing that you are your own enemy and that every action has a consequence. “I have lost. Yet from now on you are also dead - dead to the World, dead to Heaven, dead to Hope! In me you lived - and in my death - see by this face, which is your own, how wholly, how completely, you have killed - yourself!” Props to Flanagan for creating such a brilliant show 🙌🏽

[@wilmerharry]

This is Flanagan’s ultimate masterpiece! Absolutely BRILLIANT the way he incorporates Edgar Allan Poe elements in this story!
