The Haunting of Hill House Episode 2 'Open Casket' REACTION!!

[@rexoid0800]

When you realise how many ghosts are just standing in the background of most of the scenes in the house it becomes an obsession spotting them.

[@angie-tq4ew]

I just watched a video showing some (not all, apparently) of the easter egg ghost in the background. It's amazing!!!

[@HK7Roiz]

Can't say it enough, this is one of the best drama/terror shows I've ever seen, and it makes you cry too.

[@NioGamez]

But it’s a horror movie it’s not drama I didn’t see teh whole thing but it’s scary

[@xanecho]

@@NioGamez Shows can have multiple genres at once. It uses a horror framing to portray an intense family drama.

[@corvuslight]

Not really into the horror genre, but this show transcends on so many levels...true craftsmanship

[@sheri9331]

Exactly!!!

[@matthewbibby8921]

@Carlos Saraiva The ending was great, I don't know what you're on about.

[@ლ.ლ-ნ7ძ]

Carlos Saraiva nah you just don’t know what you’re talking about XD

[@ლ.ლ-ნ7ძ]

Carlos Saraiva apology accepted 😸

[@matthewbibby8921]

@Carlos Saraiva... I'm sorry but I don't see how it wasn't in tune with the rest of the show, the "happy ending" had a very clearly underlying bittersweet feeling, what with Hue dying and of course Nell still being dead. But at the end of the day, it was about a family, one who where torn apart by something out of their control and didn't know how to find their way back to each other, that was something that needed to be resolved and they did it perfectly, without the sentimentality it simply wouldn't have been able to deliver on the emotions it was building up with the family, and it certainly would've been incredibly unsatisfying for it to be a bad ending where they don't find themselves free from the house.

[@jimmyb2655]

I generally find Jump scares to be cheap, but this show does them right. If a jump scare is just there to scare you and has zero purpose it doesn't belong in the movie/show...but this show...you'll see..

[@sheri9331]

Absolutely!!!!

[@branm.4661]

Especially THAT episode. Caught me so off guard.

[@davidmccarthy8303]

Best way to sum up this show, everything is purposeful.

[@lupe9675]

"Damn this show is ruthless." oh you guys haven't seen anything yet... lololol I'm so glad Nikki caught the little porch light meaning. Keep it up! I just love how this story unfolds. Each episode keeps getting better and better. Next one is one of my favs. Enjoy!!!

[@lasadgrrl]

The casting in this show is so good! All the little kids are so cute! Maybe that’s why I feel so bad about what they go through!

[@kristagemini]

Oh my God my heart completely goes out to the twins and Theo. Shirley and Steven as well but not as much. Just everything there's so much in this and I can't freaking say it because I don't want to spoil anything, but there are elements to the show that are truly heartbreaking. I also think that they picked child actors that looked very much like the adult actors that they were playing. They did a great job in casting.

[@neonoires]

The scene with Shirley and Theo with the banging on the wall is a scene from the book (the book is extremely different) but that scene scared me so much. I had chills reading it and so when this scene happened I got a little freaked out too because of flashbacks lol. And I love your reactions so much because y'all are some of the few who understand Shirley's anger towards Luke. Everyone is like "OMG what a bitch" when she paid thousands of dollars of her own money. Drug addiction is heartbreaking and it's stressful on the family too. She obviously doesn't really want her brother to die but she was pissed.

[@alguien1234]

I didn't understand that scene... I mean, if the father at that moment was a ghost or something weird... How could they trust their true father after that experience?

[@neonoires]

@@alguien1234 EXTREMELY late lmao but I'm assuming it was a memory than replayed in a dream.

[@AstaraBrightwing]

Shirley's anger is not the issue. The issue is that she has no right whatsoever to keep Luke from Nell's wedding. That's not her place; it's an objectively shitty thing to do, and is a total violation of Nell's desires and autonomy.

[@angie-tq4ew]

OMG! I never realized that Elizabeth Reaser, the actress playing Shirley, is Esme from the _Twilight_ series. I've only ever remembered her as Ava from _Grey's Anatomy._ R.I.P. Baby Kittens. I have better stories than this one, but it's too long, and I don't have time to write it right now. Here's one, tho: After my father passed away, I was washing the dinner dishes (it's something my father often did as a family chore, leaving my mother & us for other stuff), and I felt a hand on my shoulder, and a presence behind me. At first, I cringed (normal response right?), but then I thought, if it was anyone, I choose for it to be my dad. So, I said out loud, "Hey Dad. It's okay, I got this. Love you." And the presence diminished, until I didn't feel him anymore. I started washing dishes again, and didn't realize until a few minutes later that I was crying. Great reaction & review & editing, as always. 😊❤️

[@limehof]

When my friend's mom was still pregnant with her, she would hear someone kicking her closed bedroom door at night. She would ask who was knocking but there would be no answer. She was too scared to open the door herself. They lived in a pretty quiet, private suburb, and this was the last thing they would have expected. After a few nights of this happening, she told her maid about what was happening, and the maid warned her never to open the door if she heard kicking again. The maid said she would spread flour outside the bedroom door to track whoever might have been kicking. That night, right on schedule, my friend's mom heard the kicking again, more aggressive this time. She called out but there was still no answer. The kicking only got louder and louder, but eventually stopped. The next morning, after a terrible sleep, she approached the door and swung it open. On the floor, leading away from the patch of flour, were hoofprints. Maybe not the scariest story, but friend told me this at night and I got insane chills from how bizarre it was. Also, satyr imagery/tikbalang imagery (if you're familiar with the Filipino mythological creature).

[@Gigglingsiren]

That was unsettling

After this episode I read up on morticians embalming family members. A lot of them do! They see death/bodies so differently than the rest of us. If they can't do it themselves often another local provider will do the funeral prep etc. as a professional courtesy for them.

[@karlmoles6530]

I had a cat for 20 years. Lived every day of his life with me. He was like my kid. He passed away last April. I had problems with these kitten scenes.

[@vice2versa]

yeah the kitten scenes fucked me up real bad lol. Especially the ending with the dead mother carrying the box with the dead kitten.

For me this series is more of a drama than a horror show. I'm now 6 episodes in and I think it's getting better and better every time !!

[@ccispahan7514]

Fun ghost story: When I emptied my parents’ house, I got a big wooden trunk which belonged to my great grandfather. He was an engineer and used to travel all around the world to build railroads - his family (including my mom’s dad) traveled with him. They had over 20 trunks like this one when they sailed to China. All had a very complex lock, like the ones you find on old safes, which a button you have to turn left or right. My grandfather was the only one who knew the combination by heart and he taught it to me when I was 9 or 10. When my grandfather passed, my parents lost the note on which they had written the combination and I forgot it - so they left the trunk open. A friend helped my to carry the trunk into my flat and before I could tell him not to close it, it was too late. Before going to bed that night, alone in front of the closed trunk, I said to my grandfather as if he was in the room: ‘please, please, please, help me open it’. I swear - my hand just moved left right right right left left like that. And the lock opened. Apart from that, I am a super rational person. I have to say, I was dumbfounded.

[@WildModesty]

SCARY STORY. My mom's long time friend told me this story, as it was narrated to her by her father. It happened to him, when he was a younger man. When he finally told his daughter (mom's friend) this story, he was an old man. Any way, this happened back in the mid 1960s in India. He was living with his family, in his ancestral house, which was in a remote village. And back then electrical coverage was not wide enough for street lights in those kind of rural places. Now, he had a respectable Govt job in the city, which was a long commute by bus. So he would leave his home before dawn every morning, and come back around dinner time. One day, as he was leaving his wife told him to come home early, for some religious stuff that was happening that day. Some prayers and rites. He said he'd try. Unfortunately, work ran late, and he got off the bus about 2 miles away from his home, only around midnight. He was not someone easily spooked, and being a highly educated guy, he prided himself on being very rational. He had to walk 2 miles through some fields and wooded land, before reaching the main populated part of the village. And back then, the practice was that there would be these 'torches' made of dry leaves and wood, which would be kept in bunches around the area. So anyone walking home in the dark, could just pick one up, light it and use it to get home. They were sort of community property, I guess. So he picked one of those up, and started walking. The thing with these torches though was that they were not lit till a full flame per se. What you did was you lit one end, and then you kinda stubbed it out on the ground, leaving just a smoldering fire on it. This way, on long walks, you didn't burn through a whole torch half way through, and they didn't require oil or fuel to burn. So you just swung these things in long arcs, and you could make out a few feet in front of you dimly. And in the dark, if you saw another swinging arc of a glow, you knew someone else was approaching. So, in essence, he could barely make out a couple of feet in front of him at a time. And on this night, as luck would have it, the sky was dark. A new moon night. As he passed the woods, he noticed how quiet it was that night. There were no winds or even any small animals or anything he could hear. He was tired though, and eager to get home, so just walked on, not paying much attention to anything. The fields stretched on a for a bit. One person's field after the other's. These were rice fields or paddy fields, so the field itself would be wet and half flooded for the crop to grow. So you had to walk on these narrow mud embankments between the fields. They were usually in a grid format over the whole field area, so you used them like tiny roads. He passed a few fields, in the dark, and a few more lay ahead. It was as he was nearing the end of them , with just one or two field left before it was solid ground again... that he heard it. His name. There was a voice calling his name out from a little away. Faint, but he did make out it was his first name for sure. But the thing was he couldn't see any of those torch's glowing arcs around him. It was pitch black, except for within the swinging distance of his make shift torch. He yelled out, asking who it was. There was no answer. So he paused for a bit, slightly weirded out, but decided to keep walking. Then it happened a second time. This time the voice was much louder, and closer than before. He turned again and looked. No lights anywhere. Now he was beginning to feel this sudden creeping fear. Then before he could turn and keep walking, the voice came again. this time not more than 20 feet away from him. It was so loud, and so unexpected that he got startled and lost his footing. He slipped into the paddy field. He was now a little higher than ankle deep in the muddy water. He was genuinely scared now. No lights, no person, just a loud voice. Then... the voice came again. But this time... it was not normal. It came like the sound of rain, he described it later. Like a wave of water was rushing towards him, with a rumbling sound. And it was not one voice. It was as if many dozens of voices had called out his name at once and it washed over him with a chill. He didn't care anymore, and he turned and began to run now. His mind didn't have much time to process it, before he heard the a lot of footsteps chasing him, each making a noise as the water splashed. He ran wildly towards the end of the fields and he made it somehow, having fallen and gotten mud all over him. His torch was now out. He knew the landscape though. So he ran again through the paths, and then the roaring wave of voices calling him came again. He would later say, he almost felt fingers brush against him in the dark. He said it was a blur, how he got home. Turns out, that was a special new moon day. His wife reminded him, later. The annual new moon before harvest, when according to local beliefs, the spirits of the ancestors came seeking their offering. That was the rites they were supposed to do that day. It had completely slipped his mind. He did not tell anyone about that night, except his wife. He told his daughter only decades later, when he was in his seventies or eighties. And she told us. And now I've told you. The only scary story I know.

Hill House is calling them ALL home. To quote Ramsay Bolton: If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.

That's a great quote, and it does work... in a way... depending on how you take in the end. But... yes....

[@grannysgonerabid7425]

Yeah, without giving anything away, one could argue there's some happiness to be found in the ending, but it also left me feeling incredible sad for what happened to this family, to these people. It's an ending rife with tragedy for some, redemption for others and at least a semblance of a chance to move on.

[@kristagemini]

@@grannysgonerabid7425 also there's the red and blue theory ... if you can look that up. I don't particularly believe what they said about the end but I can understand the importance of red and blue.

horror movies don't scare me, 4 miss calls from my mom scare me

[@jack_yo]

Last video you asked for experiences so here's mine. About ten years ago my best friend and his wife inherited an old house .You could walk in to the kitchen and everything would be normal, go back in ther a minute later and drawers and cabinets even the fridge would be opened. This happened always , they had three young kids and would explain it that way. I spent many days and nights there over four or five years and the cabinets just became normal. One night I was leaving the kitchen and saw a shadow in the corner of the room and watched it shrink to nothing. My visits began to be less and less and only during the day. The last tlme I visited there at night I entered the kitchen to get a drink and saw a full-bodied apparition dart directly in front of me. I've been robbed at gunpoint twice in my life and this was the most scared I've ever been. I told my friends and left the house never to go back. A couple months later my friend called me to say that in the middle of the night his middle kid, four years old, burnt the house down. How f'n creepy is that.

[@iSkippler]

When my friend got his first job at an auto shop, the boss didn’t talk to him the first day. He talked to his boss a few months after that and he asked her why she didn’t talk to him that first day. She said that she saw a ghostly army solider behind him with a gunshot wound on his heart. And my friend has a birth mark on that same spot...

[@ManicMeeks]

Since you asked...I didn't think this was scary. It was just strange. I lived in a small apartment with my family. So small my sister and I shared a queen bed. It was a weekend night. I went to bed at like 230a/3a. Before I before actually fell in to a deep sleep, I heard the door open. I didn't move...because I was listening. I felt something touch the bottom of cover and it was like dragging a finger along the side where I slept. I felt something touch my leg and it traveled up to my shoulder. Now at this point...I was like what in the flaming hell. I peeked through my slightly opened eyelids and saw nothing, but I still felt someone touching me. I kept my eyelids partially open and still saw nothing. Then I felt a full hand on my shoulder, another hand smoothing my hair back, and I felt a kiss on my cheek. Now when that happened, I popped my ass up and looked around. My sister was in a deep sleep. She didn't even move when I tried to wake her. And no....it wasn't my mother. Because she doesn't wake up and do that mess. That would be weird. lol My father worked nights so he wasn't home. It wasn't scary, but weird. lol

I really don't understand how you say this experience you had wasn't SCARY!! 👀👀😳 I would be terrified feeling something and can't see it!

[@vice2versa]

probably a hypnogogic hallucination. it happens in that between state of wakefulness and sleep/dreamstate. if you are curious, try it again while you are extremely tired. just pay attention to any weird shit you experience before falling asleep. .

@@melbeckles5575 I'm pretty sure what she is talking about was a hypnogogic hallucination. Anyone can experience them.

[@sangredelangel]

My bff is a nurse and has a shit ton of creepy stories from the hospital she works at. From patients talking to staff that was nonexistent, to floors and bathrooms they avoid after a certain hour. There was one pregnant lady that was hysterical about some woman standing at the corner of the delivery room while she was in labor. Another was a kid claiming that random people kept following her around and it was scaring her. She also says they were always there, even now outside the corridor and in the room they were consulting in. There was a drunk guy who came in at 4am with a knife sticking at the back of his shoulder. He was so out of it he kept asking the same question to my friend about his dosage again and again. They called his wife and after a few minutes, ANOTHER drunk guy with injuries came in. When that guy’s wife came in, they soon realized that their husbands got in the same brawl. 😂 the ER was a screaming hot mess after that. Lol that wasn’t a scary story, just funny. 😂😂

[@lilychris811]

Sooo one story I can tell you that was really weird. In my 20s, I was shopping at the local toys r us, and went in to use the bathroom. The door to enter was loud, and my footsteps echoed and the tile creaked. It was a small bathroom, and all the stalls were empty. While I was in the stall, I heard the faucet turn on. That's weird, I thought, because no one was in here … and I didn't hear anyone enter the bathroom. The water faucet turned off. I flushed, left the stall and ~ no one there. Though the hair on my neck stood up, I thought "whatever" and tried to put it out of my head. Years and years later, my kids and I are watching some ghost adventure show, and they mention that toys r us, the one in Sunnyvale, and that it's been haunted for decades, ESPECIALLY THE WOMEN'S BATHROOM WHERE THE FAUCETS GO ON AND OFF. "Mom?" One of my kids asks. "You okay?" Soooo, yeah, I def believe there's "something more, Horatio."

The house there belonged to the Boothe Family "The Boothe House" , it's restored and everything but people have said they've seen and heard things. So one time i was at the park with the family, walked away and looked at the doors of the old house which were shut. Even had a sign saying visiting hours and such. I look up and one of the window curtains pulls aside a bit as i i watched as if someone was watching me but the place was empty and locked up. Yeah....i got out of there fast. lol

[@moomoopuppy508]

I had the opportunity to raise my late grey tuxedo cat since he was a newborn kitten. My mom told me a story of how my grandfather once slept outside to guard their harvested rice stalks until they were dry enough to bring to the mill for processsing. In the Philippines, it would take about a week of sleeping/guarding the rice. My mom told me that my grandfather woke up one night and saw a Spanish colonial priest holding an open bible in one hand and rosary beads in the other. There was also sightings of a ghostly white wild boar that lived under a bridge.

[@CynLucero89]

We grew up in an old home from my birth until i was 14 and definitely had a few things happen and kinda learned to ignore them or play them off: my younger brother and I said goodbye to our mom, who was already dozing off in the last room of the hallway, as we left we made it to the end of the hallway we heard a man's voice say my brothers name and we turned and he said "did you hear that" I said "let's go we'll be late" we left for the bus.

A work colleague was making a delivery of a bed to an address in London, rang the doorbell, no answer. Rang again and an old lady's voice called down from the upstairs front bedroom, said everyone was out but to leave the boxes on the front path. As he was doing this a car pulled up and a family got out and asked what he was up to. He explained and they said that they were just getting back from the funeral of the dad's mum, who spent her last years in that front room. Don't know if it's for real, but it gave me goosebumps when he told me. Fantastic reactions, good luck Steve with the later episodes.

The scares in this show are almost incidental to the story of family dysfunction, sadness, guilt and attempted reconciliation. What a great secret bonus surprise that you chose to react to this. There are only a few horror series out there, but IMO this is light years ahead of them all. Meticulous scripting, casting, acting, writing, photography and message. Can't wait for ep 4, 5 and 6. There is only one true jump scare in this series and it comes way late, but it serves a purpose. You'll know it when you see it. Thank you and enjoy the ride!

The show is a re imaging of a novel by Shirley Jackson (yep the character here is named after her) and there are many references to the novel as well as the 1963 film adaptation (particularly the wall banging scene which originally involved Nell and Theo)

Raised on a farm with many animals, as I, one could see many stages of life and decomposition, bugs and some birds, eat dead things. Geese are mean and will attack you, rabbits eat their pooh, llamas with their forward facing eyes and teeth freak me out! A few acres from our farm was a hill where local farmers would dispose of any animal that had died on their property, a final resting place. It was more out of practicality than a ritual. Animal dies, drive to the Hill, unload the animal let nature do its work. Though birthing livestock is more special, and a special animal, usually a personal horse, would be buried on your land. Sometimes near the family plot, or cemetery. My horse rests near the lake we all celebrate life events. It is a good place. My simple "ghost story". On a couple of new to the area seasoned quarter horses we rode the back way to the lake. As we got close to the "Hill" they could feel the "bad" place and began to ride rough until we turned back. We knew what the Hill was, they had never been there, but sure knew the way back! Very spooky, but natural at the same time.

This show is good about different timelines making sense, usually I am so confused. Once I figured out each character's before vs. after actors it was easy to follow. Back in 2001-2005 HBO had an awesome drama series on called "Six Feet Under" about a family of morticians and their funeral home. It showed what their lives/jobs were really like & how death affected them both personally & as a business. I learned a ton about the industry and the people in it from that show. Check it out someday if you can, it won a lot of awards.

😍😍😍😍😍The baby 🐱s.. Their little baby noises are so sweet. It broke my heart when they died.

[@Maeve00Bella]

Im really looking forward for your reactions. This show is amazing! Its scary, yes. But it goes deeper than that. Its also a family drama. Angst and depression come along too. Its really dark. It made me cry many times. Keep watching! Chapters 5 and 6 are the best!

[@Just_Yaya]

Before I forget lol, there's a show on Netflix called 'Dark', This show reminds me of it with the past and present. It's SOOOOO good. It's not scary but there are twists and it starts with a young boy disappearing. PLEASE react to it. Along with Son's of Anarchy and Banshee😉

[@vice2versa]

Dark is more of a (POSSIBLE SPOILERS, DON'T READ ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Time travel show) The umbrella acadamy reminded me more haunting of hill house than the Dark program.

[@dvkins6394]

Finally!!!! Lol I've been waiting for y'all to react!! Can't wait to see how Nikki reacts! Lol

[@rubyrosefani5206]

I can’t wait til they react to episode 5 😏😏

the father is from ET when he was a kid, Henry Thomas as Elliott

[@dawnburris6412]

What?!?! I had to go to IMDB to make sure, but DAARIO NAHARIS IS IN THIS!!! I love this even more now!!!

[@proudmomofac.d.h.survivor565]

I didn't realize it was the same actor that played Dario until part way through the second episode. Binged this a few days ago, it's really good.

[@alainbourassa1998]

This show ramps up the scare factor really quickly. I actually had to tell my mother not to watch this show by herself and she likes watching scary things. It even affected me and I consider myself pretty strong. I love this show!!

[@syifayazidhabibah9303]

Your reactions have been intense. cant wait to see your reaction to handmaid's tale

[@kristagemini]

Oh YES! The Handmaids Tale is extraordinary! Holy shit! You absolutely have to watch that. It's terrifying and heartbreaking and so, so, realistic to the things happening in today's political climate, if you think that what happens in that show cannot happen today, you are sorely mistaken.

[@nbossa8]

I’ve been waiting for this 😎

[@Czoslop]

Prepare to cry, to cry a lot... one of the best shows!

[@AntoineCooper]

This is definitely a terrible show to watch once a week. I had to binge it all in like 3 or 4 days.

[@keevolution5656]

Antoine Cooper lol i watched it in a day, 10 hours specifically

[@AntoineCooper]

@@keevolution5656 I would have if I could lol

[@Saynt614]

Great show... the best is yet to come. Episode 5 and 6 are just perfect.

[@dakota.avalanche]

your reactions are so relatable !! love them! "oh hell nah" lol great

[@toby2249]

Yes, yes, YES! Keep posting please! You guys are amazing reactors and you deserve 70Mx the subscribers you have! Keep up the good work!❤️✨

[@nasrinv]

Awesome! I live for Nikki‘s reactions and Steven basically says what I think most! I‘m so happy you guys are watching this show!

[@melbeckles5575]

I hate horrors but I just was curious about this one so decided to watch 1 episode only! I was scared watched in the daytime but was hooked after the first episode I needed to find out what happened to them in that house and how the moment died. It's an amazing tv series, great story telling and amazing child actors.

[@jeyy22t86]

omg I didn’t realize the detail about the porch light

[@kristagemini]

Love your reaction videos! I'm actually thinking of starting to do this myself. I have no idea how, but..... we'll see.

[@adrianstefan5418]

My new favorite reactors. Watched 2 min and I already like you. Very natural and humble guys, keep up the good work!

[@gnomefriend922]

I've looked forward to watching this and you all did not disappoint!

[@emberlore8642]

Fyi: for my two favorite reactors please don't let it distract you, but in this show there are hidden ghosts in the background in the house. Some are noticeable, some aren't, you may spot a few editing but they are there! Really creeps the show up!

[@jennysutton7409]

This is based on a book of the same name, there was also a movie done called the Hunting but it was nothing compared to the masterpice that Mike created. I love this show and I love watching people's reactions to it because everyone reacts differently to different parts.

[@drewbluntt]

This is a really good show, glad you guys are watching this one

[@ViaBr0]

Get ready for episode 3, lots of heavy stuff! One of my favourite episodes! ❤️

[@Crazylayzeeme]

My favourite thing about this episode was seeing NATHAN SCOTT sitting on that couch 🥰🥰🥰

[@invalidname.pleasetryagain122]

I totally forgot you guys were watching THOHH so when I came home and opened KZbin and saw this video I literally felt my spirits lifted

[@honinakecheta601]

I know for some morticians, they can just come to terms with the job they do. But for the man who worked on my nana years ago, I heard he suffered from a mental break down. Working with the dead and with grieving families took a toll on him mentally. he was a funeral director, and he also handled the bodies. I was sad to hear what had happened to him. He was such a kind and caring person when my family and I were grieving the loss of my nana. I heard his son took over, because it was a family owned practice, and that he either had to get therapy or be institutionalized because he became very violent (the father). I think this kind of job does wear on peoples minds, its just that for some they can cope better than others.

[@Jimmie_Rudolfsson]

I wish you could do this show more than once a week 😌

[@jontybott1490]

The way Nikki says kittens makes me giggle

[@nEthing4Her]

OMG yeah THAT'S how I know that guy! I was telling my wife (she LOVES this kind of creepy stuff and is working her way through it right now, in fact, haha) that he looked so familiar but I just couldn't place him! THANKS STEVEN, haha - yeah that's Daario Naharis!

[@Lucas-vo7fm]

I started to watch this show just to see your reactions. Greetings from Brazil. Love you both

[@Raine-97]

I don’t know if anyone has said this, but I believe the siblings symbolize the 5 stages of grief. Steve is denial, Shirley is anger, Theodora is bargaining, Luke is depression, Nell is acceptance.

[@AnlaGaming]

I doubt you'll ever see this but yeah the people who do the clean up & makeup for funerals, I don't know how they deal with doing that all the time. When my family had my sisters wake, they did an amazing job on her. They'd requested a very recent picture of her so they could do her makeup in her usual way. They were really good about how they handled the situation. Usually, they are . I wouldn't have been able to handle doing what the sister did. (Can't remember the characters name)

[@NikkiStevenReact]

Hi Amber, really sorry to hear you’ve been though that for a sister.

[@12chapin]

BNL, who's that girl? I think there 3 timelines, at least. The Flashback timeline, when they're living in the house. Present Day timeline, when Nell dies and when Steve had written that book. The "2 years ago" as I call it, when they put Luke in the rehabilitation center, I think there's a scene in ep 1 when Steve is just starting to write the book.

[@tunderdiamant8651]

Honnestly i hacve such huge respect for people doing that job ... People always make fun of it and think they're weird but clearly not everyone could do that ....

[@elisalukasik6334]

Nikki you kill me with your reactions!!!! So intense!
