There are two Battlestar Galactica alumni in this episode.

I vote Erik reacts to _The Haunting of Hill House_ and _The Haunting of Bly Manor._

[@anlinde]

@@Buffy8Fan and Midnight Mass. 🙏🔥

@@Buffy8Fan I finished Hill House last week and finished the first episode of Bly Manor

[@transformerdude4251]

I truly hope Eric decides to dive into the Flanagan Netflix rabbit hole. I specifically need his reaction to Midnight Mass ❤

[@kimberlymoeller6552]

His reaction to Midnight Mass would be amazing. I’d pay for an extra Patreon tier to see that!

[@transformerdude4251]

@@kimberlymoeller6552 Absolutely agree

[@carriesmith742]

I intend to myself since this was my first Mike Flanagan experience as well.

[@charmedoriginal5923]

Do we know if Calvin amd/or Rick have seen The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, and Midnight Mass on their own time ?

[@TheJerbol]

@@carriesmith742 Midnight Mass is awesome. Extremely unique story. And Hill House is already a certified classic

[@Rmlohner]

Carla Gugino must have fallen on her knees thanking Flanagan when she got these scripts, seeing she got to give one eloquent, damning speech after another to the worst people in the world.

[@keeganbate8935]

The whole "consequence" line is so so good

[@mickyjoe97]

Carla Gugino not getting an Emmy noms annoys me so much but unsurprising given how overlooked Mike Flanagan's previous horror work has been. But her performance(s) in this show is incredible

[@arafat9828]

Haunting of Hill House should've swept the Emmys tbh

[@singulariteas]

@@arafat9828 unfortunately horror is always overlooked 🙁

[@carriesmith742]

20:40 the look on Aaron's face when Melanie said, "I'd go," LOL 😂😂😂

[@pamoweiberezi5315]

I think he says "I'll remember that"😂

[@Scoutzknives]

@@pamoweiberezi5315 Full on Telltale series. "Aaron will remember that"

[@Wraiven22]

The choice to use the final synth sting of Closer by NIN during that acid fall scene was 🤌🏻 chef’s kiss

[@wavehellhole]

Can’t get closer to another person than being literally melted and fused together in a writhing mass of bodies

[@moonlily1]

It does really sound like the climax of some unbelievable tragedy.

[@justinehercthehuman]

My smile is just so wide when I see Blind Wave reacting to anything Mike Flanagan.

[@rodrigofoli]

I need eric reacting to the haunting of hill house

[@Quzga]

Eric's face during the "invitation" 😂

[@MellyMelon1331]

This episode makes my stomach turn. Its so gross, but more than that, it builds the fear from the moment a single drop falls before even the party, so you're sitting there stressing all episode

[@justinehercthehuman]

This whole show has like a Final Destination charm where you know who are gonna die but you don't know how they die, and their deaths can sometimes be ridiculously gory but it's campy that way and oh this show is so much more artistic. That whole final scene also reminded me of Stranger Things tho haha, Vecna in his mind lair.

[@justinehercthehuman]

Melanie's reaction to Juno and Roderick 🤣🤣 But gurl, why you playin with Aaron saying "I'd go" 😭😭

[@bluegypsy71]

💀💀💀I love how this series is Flanagan's love letter to all things Edgar Allen Poe, he doesn't make it book cannon so much as interweaves most of the elements of the stories into a tapestry...and there's so many easter eggs throughout, both visually and literally.

[@Quzga]

Haven't been this excited for a reaction binge since succession! Hope Eric does more.

[@charmedoriginal5923]

Eric, Aaron, and Melanie, while the first episode's title consists of a phrase from the first line of Poe's poem "The Raven", the last episode bears the poem's title. The other episodes have the same titles as the following short stories by Poe: "The Masque of the Red Death", "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", "The Black Cat", "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Gold-Bug", and "The Pit and the Pendulum".

[@keeganbate8935]

There are many many references to other Poe works too throughout, like The Premature Burial and a whole novel written about the Pym character Mark Hamill plays.

[@matthewmcshane399]

I agree with Napoleon Usher, you should totally react to Narcos. Its great!!

[@RobertMorgan]

I love the music in that show.

[@jocelyngipson7882]

Listen to the credits!! You can hear the sounds of their death in it.

[@NationalHooeyLeague]

Well that...happened. I am definitely loving how horrific it is. The brutality of greed and selfishness matched by the violence in death.

[@HeidiBrown-hh5gy]

After you watch each episode look at the Edgar Allen Poe poem or short story with the same title and see the reason for some of the plot choices.

[@Painocus]

Well, one of the episodes is based on William Willson more than the one the title is from.

[@RobertMorgan]

And that's the scene that ruined the phrase "Cuddle Puddle".

[@lila10P]

I love horror movies and I've seen A LOT of them, but the people puddle still gets me, lol. I had a pretty good idea of what was going to happen, not in terms of details but in general, and I was like, "Ew ew ew ew, oh NO!" 😂 This show is so great; it's my second favorite Flanaverse series and the one I've rewatched more than once.

[@muhammadhabibieamiro3639]

Episode 2 is here let's Go

[@davidmendez1694]

I'm surprised you didn't notice, the actress who plays 1980 Maddeline was also in Reacher. She played Roscoe in season 1.

[@trentmorris6805]

Gotta say Aaron, I was seriously impressed with your theories/predictions at the end of this one. All of your ideas were plausible, but some predictions you nailed right on the head. Well done! Looking forward to your reactions when you see how right you've been

[@captainsplifford]

"I'd go." LMAOOOOOOOO!!!!

[@AMoniqueOcampo]

The original "Masque of the Red Death" story is surprisingly still relevant. What happens in this episode is shocking and tragic.

[@ayaehab]

Detective Aaron is on the case yet again!

[@btsxtherapy]

OMG I loved this show! I am so glad you guys are watching this, I struggled to find find good reactors watching this & I love you guys so this is perfect !

[@puppyash9656]

In the original Poe story, there is a masquerade ball, where an uninvited guest shows up. Dressed in purple/red (depending of edition) and wearing a skull-face mask, The Red Mask walks room to room leaving only dead bodies behind......

[@StormKing757]

[@johnnythunder1269]

I wish they would react to it.

[@MrGala0apples]

I love this show so damn much. Flanagan shows always get so much better on the second episode, after all the set up. Perry’s death is so fantastically gross, I love horror that has the balls to go dark places. And I love how much you dislike Roderick and Juno, there,s a reason all the siblings think it’s awful.

[@Glisern]

Molly Quinn with short hair? daaaaaamn

[@misterkite]

Does Castle know what his daughter has been up to?

[@techmaster9123]

Had a crush on her years ago while she was in Castle, she's absolutely gorgeous, she recently married, James Gunn officiated their marriage in his home I think

[@emmy_the_nbnd]

I have a VERY HIGH tolerance when it comes to gore but that scene makes me actually nauseous it is so horrible.

[@RobertMorgan]

It ruins the phrase 'cuddle puddle' doesn't' it.

@@RobertMorgan oh God why..... 🤢

[@andhispalmugman6314]

I made the horrible, horrible mistake of eating while watching it.

[@christianwise637]

The sound design makes it so much worse, the squelching sound of all the...leftovers just makes the stomach turn

[@ct_rider134]

idk how to say this without coming off as an ass and I realize this sounds like gatekeeping gore but it's a tv show lol, none of it is real. There are irl videos out there that you would never scrub from your brain, those are nausea inducing. Weird flex attempt, and I would never suggest following the rabbit holes, but if fictional gore is upsetting you then you probably shouldn't be talking about your "VERY HIGH tolerance"

[@derekwillerton]

Fun fact, the woman who plays young Madeline is ALSO in Reacher! She plays the cop in season 1

Holt shit THAT'S why she looks so familiar lmao
