We are so close to the finale of Haunting of Hill House and everything is starting to ramp up. The jump scares. The family drama. The child murder.
Wait…the what?
In the past, Olivia Crain begins experiencing terrifying paranormal visions in Hill House. She sees haunting premonitions of her children’s deaths and is visited by the ghost of Poppy Hill, who convinces her that the outside world will destroy her family. Unraveling under the house’s sinister influence, Olivia plans to leave for her sister’s home—but never does.
On their final night in Hill House, Olivia, trapped in delusion, hosts a tea party in the Red Room for Nell, Luke, and their friend Abigail. Unbeknownst to them, the tea is laced with poison—Olivia’s desperate attempt to "protect" them from the horrors of the real world. Hugh intervenes just in time to save Nell and Luke, but Abigail is lost. In the aftermath, he flees with the surviving children as Olivia, desperate to escape her nightmare, plunges from the spiral staircase.
We also pick Strange Darling for our next movie review and talk about some (now dated) Scream 7 casting news.
